When this binding takes place, the nerve cell is activated

This herb is made for us. It uses an otherwise dormant part of the brain which "normal" people don't use. Expanding the mind indeed, it at least gives it some excercise. Even if you are sitting on the couch, You think more and you are creative. Unless you are just playing playstation which is an ever so constructive pastime. . . . . . It's like our society is scared to embrace the what the earth gives us. We just use chemicals in everything, creating cancer and depression. Our society is turning away from anything natural.
Bravo! .... The truth has been spoken ...
It beyond a doubt lifts man to a higher level of consciousness,,,
People who are afraid to embrace it and claim to be christians do not know what they are missing out on.
Even their Jesus was a user of opiates...

Just a reminder to get this back on track. I'm as guilty as anyone here on this one... Let's get back to how it relates to UFOs though...
The crucifixion story .... He is adminstered opium for pain ... Opium he spits out on the ground ... Not necessarily because he was against its usage but perhaps because the physical pain was a necessary ingredient for ascension ... yes, among shaman this is known fact ....
30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
32 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.
This thread is dangerously skirting the TOS regarding discussion of drug use folks... I'm pretty flexible on such "gray" threads as these, but we're off the original topic still. Hate to be a stickler on it, but give an inch, take a mile...etc.
Lets get back to relating to the original point here....

Excellent point, ShawNee922. I am not aware that opium has a taste, tho'. Can anyone confirm this? Perhaps Jesus 'knew' there were drugs in the wine but still went through the ritual of tasting it and spitting it out.

I just finished reading the thread by "sleeper" "Are aliens real, as real as the nose on your face". He stated "You have to really be drunk or drugged up to meet them face to face", this is where I'll start. Being doped on some meds, being high, and being drunk all involve you being consciously a little more distant from your body, you aren't really sure what's going on sometimes.
...........What ya think?
Gazrok, how is this supposed to be interpreted? I see lots of threads about cannabis. Where is the line drawn? Legally, I can use booze or cannabis in front of a cop, where I live, and he cannot do a thing about it. God bless California.
Now, aren't we allowed to discuss alternative therapies and medicines?

I beg to differ, i never had any hind of hallucinations from pot . What do you smoke over there
I do agree on the meditation part though
Seeing the result if lifelong Pot Usage crawling into my place of employment and fouling up my night is enough of an anti-drug. There's nothing I hate more than delusional junkies.
