    lol :p

    Mckenna's hypothesis is that, a hypothesis. One should not agree or disagree but should judge it's merit on the available data. So far there is zero evidence of it being true. It is elegant but perhaps unlikely. Terrestrial life is varied and complex enough to generate something like the flesh of god i think. Mckenna makes some bold claims and runs with them, though they do have good explanatory power, like his mushroom/evolution link.

    Ya. It can be pretty entertaining to think about, and it is definitely possible, but it is also most definitely not proven at all haha. I want to try DMT and try to meet these "little green ghouls" he speaks of. Actually I just want to try DMT, but that should be happening soon so I'll let yall know if I run into any aliens. :p

    I believe what Mckenna was trying to describe was an alien of a higher presence. A non-physical life form, a higher intelligence, through our local reality it will leak, and reveal itself. A mystical type presence from behind the vail, the sort of intelligent presence you feel behind all your trips.

    Not little green men, but dimensionless beings of higher perception, orchestrating the transfusion of energy into thought form. Workers of the cosmic construction of life, not demented aliens who wish to probe us for our jewels and harvest our thoughts for cash crop!

    They feel so different. Hard to say if one is better than the other. i guess LSD is better for extroverted, social, outdoors kinds of trips, as i am much more likely to go into a powerful trance in significant doses of mushrooms. If i go deep on mushrooms i want to be either alone in the forest or do it T. McKenna style - high doses, alone, in the dark and in bed.

    Peace & Love,

    Purrrr!

    In bed alone? How sad! :D

    Mushrooms are socially acceptable, just like people can be, sometimes!

    At unprecedented depths

    As far as low doses and using them in a recreational setting I think its easier to compare.

    I feel acid is a lot easier to deal with in public. You have energy, you don't get stuck in deep thought as easily, its just seems easier to handle.

    Mushrooms though are a lot less shaky, sometimes on acid you will get so much energy you start getting the shakes, shrooms that seems to happen less.

    In some range levels if you can still talk well, its really not that bad talking to people. As long as its nobody thats gonna care about your pancake size pupils.

    Acid is easier to eat on, it won't hurt your stomachs at like concerts and stuff. Shrooms will make you sit down at concerts. Acid will make you dance!

    Shrooms often make you feel like a child again. So shrooms at like a park, or a playground, or off just doing some random adventure thing is pretty fun.

    Guess if you were in the right mood and weren't tired at all it be good for dancing.

    Idk even when I hippie flip I feel like I need to go sit down and trip out on mushrooms.

    But of course there is never any fixed way these psychedelics work.

    Well, I think there are some general guidelines of how they work -- but sometimes even the people work differently.

    It's like with weed, how there are some people who get really unusual effects.

    I mean, shrooms tend to cause circular thoughts - they tend to cause more nature-y feelings, more universal feelings - and they tend to cause childish thinking/behavior - there's no doubting that. But there are certain ways that one's brain could manifest them differently.


    But, I've only wanted to sit once on shrooms, and in that case, it wasn't even a choice, I went completely into my own mind and was apparently babbling like a psycho. Every other time, I don't only want to do something, I need to.

    ^ This...


    On my friend's first LSD trip she said it made her feel like a child, she has no experience with mushrooms. So something like that can play a factor too which one you try first, then all the common set, setting, dose, and personality factors that go along with it.

    A personal difference, possibly a big difference I have noticed between the two is like LSD at around hour 6-8 usually seems to flip the switch into some kind of different trip, i guess it's the comedown but I feel it becomes like a different sort of trip almost as where mushrooms are always just a decline of effects to me, though depending on the shrooms sometimes that can be a rapid decline or slower decline.

    Thank you for the echo, but I heard it the first time.

    You have not responded to my comment that shroom experiences have common occurrences; LSD is irrelevant right now.

    What? Isn't this whole thread supposedly about comparing the two or supposing one is better than the other or something.

    I just told you my friend get's the childlike characteristics on LSD too, I was responding to your post. I myself always get kaleidoscopic vision on LSD and the childlike quality to just as much as mushrooms.

    I don't completely agree with this guy about everything here, but there is some relevant info in this video.

    But I was responding to inthydreams about how shrooms do have characteristics that are similar from one trip to the next, even though they have differences. And then you replied about how LSD and shrooms have similar characteristics? I felt you were countering my point (whether you meant to or not), with something that I was kinda-sorta disagreeing with in the first place.

    I'm not trying to give you bad vibes or nothing, even if I got a little snappy before, it's just, that's the way I see it.
    Steppin on my toes. Not meaning to make a problem of it =)

    Its like two different trails up a mountain, and a lot of the time the trails intersect, and the peak experience in all your trips, the top of the mountain, that's where you find yourself.

    Mushrooms are not poisonous in any way, the best thing for my health next to water.

    Some people cannot have them, but they don't have to have them so it can work out.

    I do need a lot. No-one can have more psilocybin than I, because I can't be made insane. :p My brain just doesn't damage in that way. :D
