S3 E7 Ancient American Drugs
Ancient Americans consumed a number of plants that Western society now view as “drugs”. But to the ancients, they weren’t just plants. They had spirits that could give them strength and aid them to reach an altered state of consciousness through which to interact with the supernatural otherworld.
Ed-
Very interesting and thought provoking as usual. I was curious if you have seen any connections with these practices and your theory of the fanged diety monotheism?

Good question, mind if I answer it in Ask Ed?
Please do!
that’s deity, not diety…
I can publicly neither confirm nor deny that I inspired you to go down this rabbit hole, but I am sure happy I did and that you accepted! Thank you for the enlightening and fascinating dive in into “contact with the supernatural world through the use of imbibed substances”.
You’re welcome my friend!
