Existence of Drug-Taking In
The Ancient Middle East Denied

This idea is banned by Mainstream Historians if they agree that Egypt, The Akkadian Empire, Greece, Assyria, Babylonia, The Sumerians etc were involved in drug-taking and that this was the central point of all their religions – that would severely imply that Judaism and Christianity would have been involved. That would put the Historian’s dogma at serious jeopardy.
Also, if I were paranoid, I would be suspicious about the fact that Mainstream Historians similarly make the nonsensical claim about the Gospels dating from the first century CE – when there is in fact absolute Zero Evidence to support this claim. Mainstream Historians continue to claim it is really a “theory” – but it is always presented as “fact” whenever you read any official book about Christianity. One Mainstream Historian has even hilariously insisted that the Historical Jesus is parallel to the historical Winston Churchill! It is usually pointed out in support of the Historical Jesus that all modern sceptics about the historical credibility of Jesus are all generally wrong in their various arguments, without the Mainstream Historians ever pointing out the various early Christian Sects that denied the physical substance of Christ.
When R. Gordon Wasson (died 1986) reported that the Indigenous Indians of Mexico were still using Hallucinogens and using it today as a sacred sacrament like they did thousands of years ago, Western Historians and Anthropologists congratulated him on his discoveries about the existence of drugs and religions in that part of the World – he also reported a “Hands off!” approach relating to the subject matter towards the Ancient Near East because of the ban that existed (their attitudes) on that aspect – but it can be very easily be proved that drug-taking was the central component used in all those religions in the Ancient Near East. The book by R. Gordon Wasson is “Maria Sabina and Her Mazatec Mushroom Velada” (Three Volumes, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1974).
The ban only exists in place because it might encroach upon the possibility of drug-taking in Judaism and Christianity.
Guess what – the Mainstream Historians and Anthropologists have NO NEED to tell me anything – because to paraphrase Carl Gustav Jung – I don’t need to believe in anything – because I already know. I have the freedom to make my own discoveries independently of the requirements of the dogma of Mainstream Historians.
This dogmatic approach that is utilised by Historians and Anthropologists needs to end now and the information needs to be released in Western Society, in its schools and universities!
It is high time for this curse of the past to be exorcised once and for all.
I remember only too well the attitude of the dogmatic Historians towards John Marco Allegro when he published his book “The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross” (Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 1970). It was published in The Times newspaper dated 26 May 1970.
It is a fact that Allegro’s identification of the Fly Agaric (Amanita Muscaria) with Christianity was completely erroneous – as indeed was his definition of Christianity as a “Fertility Cult” – but the idea of A HALLUCINOGENIC DRUG being responsible for the existence of Christianity (and by extension inherited from Judaism) is ultimately correct. The recent claim that Christianity was linked to claviceps purpurea (LSD) is also a mistake (Brian C. Muraresku, “The Immortality Key: The Secret History of the Religion with No Name”, St. Martin's Press, 2020).
Here can be found the evaluation by Artificial Intelligence concerning the argument that the Fly Agaric only found itself into Israel after World War Two.
The idea that drugs were the responsible ingredients of Religions within the Ancient Near East is not only correct, but far too obvious, and the moratorium and dogmatic approach by Mainstream Historians is completely unwarranted and a total waste of time. It needs to END.
Therefore, the conclusion is, whether it is directly linked or indirectly linked – Mainstream Historians deny the role that hallucinogenic substances played more than an active role in the religions of the Ancient Near East – in the same way that the other Mainstream Historians claim the validity of the Gospels as being “historical” relating to the historical existence of the Divinity of Jesus Christ.
Incidentally, modern chemists don’t “discover” anything “new” – they only re-discover. For example, who discovered LSD? Was it really Albert Hofmann in 1938 or was it the ancients, who eventually used it as an important ingredient within the Rites of the Eleusinian Mysteries?
Also: The mistaken claim by John Marco Allegro that the Fly Agaric (Amanita Muscaria) is the key to Christianity will soon be approaching a staggering 56 years. “The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross” was first published on 18 May 1970. This misconception is still quite popular and used today, believe it or not.
