Modern Research

The last section of this page is currently "modern research" which says:

"Rick Strassman began research into the effects of N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) by administering it to 60 human volunteers. This research was conducted at the University of New Mexico's School of Medicine in Albuquerque."

As far as I can discern, this is completely and totally irrelevant to the rest of the article. How is this related to the use of drugs in religion? If it is, maybe someone could add a few sentences that explain the connection to the rest of the article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Fluck (talk • contribs) 13:12, 15 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Kabbalistic tree of life

This image relates it to cannabis as seen on it's deletion page. (It is just an image of the paths of tiferet in the kabbalistic tree of life) I tried to post it on various other discussions and after being met with a bit of "redirection", I am here.

Wish I knew about this article in the first place. The freemasonry discussion page was probably the worst possible choice based on the reaction I got -didn't know I'm new. =)

Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD) and Evangelists?

I read somewhere (I forgot where) that LSD is so readily available because Evangelists were producing them. It said that they didn't really care about the money (which is why LSD is relatively cheap), and that they just wanted everyone to try it. It was online somewhere, so I'm not sure if it was a credible source. But if anyone else knows anything about that, maybe they should add it to the article?
