sighborg, dude youve got to check out that book I mentioned. what a trip... what you just said almost directly parallels his first chapter; the fascination of nature, being boggled by the infinite complexities of a universe that is too perfect not to be planned, etc...
what you wrote makes some sense. i smoked pot, dropped acid, and ate shrooms (basically) every single day for almost 8 years. perhaps in those acts i sought what we all crave for... the connectedness of man and nature, man and creater

yeah, not to get all mystical here - but if we are all worshipping the same god - i suppose i'm just trying to find my own way before i subscribe to any set dogma. Even though science seems to be heading the opposite direction, i think some day it will some day be strangely simillar in an abstract way to organized religion. Out of all the religions i studied in college, all of them struck me as pretty funny and rediculous, so i guess they just arent for me.
As far as drugs, the idea that most religions spawed from some yokel out looking for food and stumpling across a patch of mushrooms, and in an effort to try and explain the effects it had on him, concocted a fantastic story about our place in nature. Anyone who has had their asses handed to them while on a drug in the woods has to laugh about that. Think of some guy who doesnt know what the sun is tripping his *** off. Oh, the stories.It's pretty widely accepted in the cultural anthropology world. Amanita was really important in the catholic world, before people started taking it for recreational uses, therefore opening up a direct pathway between the regular people and god - and this made the preists and church powerless - so they outlawed it, and supplemented the mushroom "body of god" with a wafer. bah. Probably tasted better. Anyway, I'm rambling now, and i know im gonna get the **** flamed out of me - so i'm going to go into hiding.
