The fact that something occurs naturally does not mean that it is harmless. There are plenty of chemicals that occur naturally inside your body that if you injested, they would kill you. Try eating feces.
I've done a fair amount of psychedelics (including smoked DMT), with no harmful long term effects. I have nothing but great memories of my experiences.
You really seem to have this bad habit of projecting your experiences on other people, Your responses to "Small Census' thread is a perfect example.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
