“Sometime in the last 50,000 years, before 12,000 years ago, a kind of paradise came into existence. A situation in which men and women, parents and children, people and animals, human institutions and the land all were in dynamic balance and not in any primitive sense at all. Language was fully developed, poetry may have been at its climax, dance, magic, poetics, altruism, philosophy. There's no reason to think that these things were not practiced as adroitly as we practice them today and it was under the boundary dissolving influence of psilocybin.” PeopleThinkingMenYearsHumansKindMayChildrenHas BeensReasonPhilosophyTodayLastsLanguageParentAnimalExistenceSituationPracticeMagicInfluenceLandBalanceMen And WomenYears AgoInstitutionsBoundariesParadiseNo ReasonPrimitiveAltruismChildren And ParentsClimaxDissolvingPsilocybin Author:Terence McKenna

“I really wanted to get out of that cycle in our family where somebody's taking revenge on somebody for some slight that happened thirty years ago, and the only way to assert one's existence is by climbing over the body of an unfortunate sibling, or with a fellow family member, and you end up even unconsciously rejoicing in the other person's unhappiness and being like, I am happy because I can see how unhappy these other people are.” PeopleWayYearsPersonsI CanEndsBodyWantedExistenceHappenedMembersYears AgoFellowsRevengeUnhappyOur FamilyThirtyCyclesUnhappinessClimbingRejoiceUnfortunateSiblingBecause I CanThirty YearsFamily MembersTaking Revenge Author:Marco Roth

“I believe in God. It makes no sense to me to assume that the Universe and our existence is just a cosmic accident, that life emerged due to random physical processes in an environment which simply happened to have the right properties.

“The ghostly presence of virtual particles defies rational common sense and is nonintuitive for those unacquainted with physics. Religious belief in God, and Christian belief that God became Man around two thousand years ago, may seem strange to common-sense thinking. But when the most elementary physical things behave in this way, we should be prepared to accept that the deepest aspects of our existence go beyond our common-sense intuitions.” ThinkingMenWayShouldYearsMayTwoSeemsChristianBeliefReligiousCommonExistenceAcceptingAtheismStrangeThousandAspectYears AgoPreparedIntuitionPhysicsCommon SenseRationalBehaveThousand YearsBe PreparedParticlesReligious BeliefBelief In GodPhysical Things Author:Antony Hewish
