You really think I just compared caffeine to alcohol? You seriously couldn't tell I only brought up caffeine to show how ridiculous your own comparison was? Woah.



I'm sorry, but are you seriously comparing love to drugs? I'm aware that scientists are learning about the chemical processes that happen when you fall in love. But I think the negative impact that drugs can have on a brain are a little worse than prolonged love-use...

Nobody's doubting you felt something when you used psychs. And nobody's doubting you feel it was profound. That really has never been the discussion.

Why any of this makes you feel the need to judge me and say, "it can't tell you how you can fall in love. Obviously only experience will give you true understanding. Seems like it's something you have trouble with", is a mystery. You clearly know nothing about me. But if continually putting me down is how you feel better about yourself, knock yourself out. Maybe you can make that your new religion, since we've established your old one as irrelevant.

You and Mags have been going at it for 6 hours straight. I'm starting to think you're both on meth.

Wow you really don't get it and I suppose you never will. And your banter on something you have no idea about is pretty humorous. Just admit that you were wrong and move on.

That you used the wrong words. Obviously you can argue and debate about atheism or agnosticism; but you have zero room to talk in this field. Sorry, end of story.

And to get on a tangent about me saying you don't know what love is; well... It just zipped right over your close minded head.

And knowing little about you? Look in the mirror dude! You've talked like you have some idea about me; when in actuality you know shit about me.

Sorry, thought this was a message board, Mr. 17.5k poster. I don't come on here often, but have time to kill today and thought it was an interesting discussion. Not to worry, this'll be the last time I come here.

I was only kidding around. I wasn't telling either of you to stop posting. I'm not asking you to leave either. Also I do not really think either of you are on meth. If you are really offended by this I can post a public apology and explain to people that I was joking and that I am a giant asshole. I don't think you want me to admit that I'm a giant asshole, that would be more for ABM's sake. He thinks I'm one.

Hey, I'm trying to make Noknobs see what kind of a person I am and not to get so offended over what I posted. Can you just agree with me for once?!?

Haha. I had to make my last post in a hurry, a doctor was walking over to us. No, not offended, Sly, but I can now see it looked that way. Rather, Sly’s post was a wake up call that I’d actually been arguing some guy on the internet for that long about something so irrelevant as religion. That’s more than a little embarassing. I thought to myself, even though I have to stay at the hospital all night in support of my girlfriend who’s friend had a stroke, apparently from an overdose of meth, I should still try to find something more productive to do. So I’m going cold turkey. No more noknobs. I like going out on top after besting Mags yet again. I mean I really did knock him around like a red-headed step child. Took him to the shed.. Think about it, I made him invalidate his entire belief system in one afternoon. Even I’m impressed.

Now I think I’ll takes some psychs and wander the maternity ward for awhile.

Bombastic pomosity abounds. This is proceding to evolve from the absurd to beyond comedic. Those that can not stand thev ery idea of allowing a christian to believe without being harranged and badgered, would deny us the same respect that they demand. How many trash the christains threads are there now?

pfft this is a joke, the very same people would be kicking their little feetsies upon the dirt and yelling to the skies of the injustice, if even a portion of this drivel had been spoken of the Muslim faith..

and yeah, I do realize "bombastic" and "pompus" and very close, I wanted the emphasis to be upon the absurdity, rather than the self centered ignorance

The dude seems like he is high on crack or something. Obviously he doesn't know tht some of the most brilliant minds in recent history did LSD.

Francis Crick — LSD
Francis Crick — of the DNA-structure discovering Watson, Crick, and Franklin — reportedly told numerous friends and colleagues about his LSD experimentation during the time he spent working to determine the molecular structure that houses all life's information.

4. John C. Lilly — LSD, Ketamine
Neurocientist John C. Lilly was a pioneer in the field of electronic brain stimulation. He was the first person to map pain and pleasure pathways in the brain; founded an entire branch of science exploring interspecies communication between humans, dolphins, and whales; invented the world's first sensory deprivation chamber; and conducted extensive personal experimentation with mind-altering drugs like LSD and ketamine.

It bears mentioning that Lilly's experiments with interspecies communication, personal psychedelic use, and sensory deprivation often overlapped.


3. Richard Feynman — LSD, Marijuana, Ketamine
Feynman was always careful about drug use, for fear of what it might do to his brain — giving up alcohol, for example, when he began to exhibit symptoms of addiction. In Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!, he writes, "You see, I get such fun out of thinking that I don't want to destroy this most pleasant machine that makes life such a big kick. It's the same reason that, later on, I was reluctant to try experiments with LSD in spite of my curiosity about hallucinations."

Nevertheless, Feynman's curiosity got the best of him when he became acquainted with none other than John C. Lilly and his sensory deprivation tanks. Feynman experimented briefly with LSD, ketamine, and marijuana, which he used to bring on isolation-induced hallucinations more quickly than he could when sober.


2. Kary Mullis — LSD
Who, you may be asking, is Kary Mullis? Let's put it this way: If you've worked in a biomedical research lab since the 1980's, there is an exceedingly good chance you've performed a polymerase chain reaction (aka PCR, the lab technique that can turn a single segment of DNA into millions of identical copies), or are at least familiar with it. You have Mullis to thank for that. While Mullis didn't invent the PCR technique, per se, he improved upon it so significantly as to revolutionize the field of biomedical research, securing himself a Nobel Prize in chemistry in the process.

The secret to Mullis' breakthrough? In a September, 1994 issue of California Monthly, Mullis says that he "took plenty of LSD" In the sixties and seventies, going so far as to call his "mind-opening" experimentation with psychedelics "much more important than any courses [he] ever took." A few years later, in an interview for BBC's Psychedelic Science documentary, Mullis mused aloud: "What if I had not taken LSD ever; would I have still invented PCR?" To which he replied, "I don't know. I doubt it. I seriously doubt it." [Photo via]

Are you advocating the use of drugs? I certainly hope not............brother.

Jesus w as almost certainly a cannabis user and an early proponent of the medicinal properties of the drug, according to a study of scriptural texts published this month. The study suggests that Jesus and his disciples used the drug to carry out miraculous healings. The anointing oil used by Jesus and his disciples contained an ingredient called kaneh-bosem which has since been identified as cannabis extract, according to an article by Chris Bennett in the drugs magazine, High Times, entitled Was Jesus a Stoner? The incense used by Jesus in ceremonies also contained a cannabis extract, suggests Mr Bennett, who quotes scholars to back his claims.

"There can be little doubt about a role for cannabis in Judaic religion," Carl Ruck, professor of classical mythology at Boston University said.

Referring to the existence of cannabis in anointing oils used in ceremonies, he added: "Obviously the easy availability and long-established tradition of cannabis in early Judaism _ would inevitably have included it in the [Christian] mixtures."

Mr Bennett suggests those anointed with the oils used by Jesus were "literally drenched in this potent mixture _ Although most modern people choose to smoke or eat pot, when its active ingredients are transferred into an oil-based carrier, it can also be absorbed through the skin".

Quoting the New Testament, Mr Bennett argues that Jesus anointed his disciples with the oil and encouraged them to do the same with other followers. This could have been responsible for healing eye and skin diseases referred to in the Gospels.

"If cannabis was one of the main ingredients of the ancient anointing oil _ and receiving this oil is what made Jesus the Christ and his followers Christians, then persecuting those who use cannabis could be considered anti-Christ," Mr Bennett concludes.

In moderation, yes. The Bible is clear about "over" drinking, though.....which i abstain from.

Hallucinogenics are a far cry for one or two beers, though. A far cry. Dude, say it ain't so! :(

Well I think you should pray about it like I have for years. I bet you have an idea on why God made shrooms, cactus or other psychoactive natural products without man tapping into them.

I think you need to lighten up a bit. I don't consider this something I'm ashamed of. How about you? You ashamed about anything?
