Drugs In The Bible and The Shamanic Origins Of Christianity w/ Reverend Danny Nemu ~ Ep. 61

There are drugs in the bible and the most high were getting really high on 'em. ... So what if I were to tell you that the ancient Israelites upon which these the religions are based were a cult of desert pagans following the wisdom of shamans who used plant-based concoctions in hallucinogenic rituals to induce altered states of consciousness; and that the very structure of those religions today are based on clandestine distortion of the original teachings in order to disconnect the populous from direct connection to the divine in order to establish and maintain sociopolitical control? That is what the guest for this episode of Adventures Through The Mind, Reverend Danny Nemu, is here present a case for. *** See bit.ly/ATTMind61 for full show notes and reference links   *** Episode Breakdown What drugs are in the bible and where you can find them.
