My first psychedelic experience made me embrace my atheism
#2
RE: My first psychedelic experience made me embrace my atheism
I read a well-stated spiel on the usage of drugs. It was a fiction novel. James Herbert's Others, to be precise. I do not have an eidetic memory, but I shall attempt to do justice in my retelling.

Basically, what he logically surmised was that doing drugs was not a way of opening the consciousness to reality so much as it was to stifle reality for the sake of allowing the delusion to seem real.
