Do psychedelics have a real place in religion?

Or is it all just a crock of shit.

420noskope religion endorses it.
>>
>>664815
That depends entirely on the religion.

Some religions, especially in the pre-European Western hemisphere, employed a variety of mind-altering substances in their rituals for their "spirit quests" and so forth.

So yes, they have had a real place in more than a few religions in the past.
>>
The place where everyone fucks up with psychedelics is when you start looking to them as the end result instead of as tools to shake you out of your comfort zone and make you reexamine old ground. When you start analyzing them in and of themselves, they are as so many people believe, "a crock of shit". This is also why their biggest advocates are so annoying, and most of the time they're wrong.

Think of it this way: Neil Armstrong was famously quoted for saying, "It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small."
Now, obviously this is an experience he had of how anyone can blot out the moon and make themselves feel big, and when he got up there he did the same to the earth and felt the gravity of his accomplishment and a re-framing of how we are all so interconnected and yet we don't act that way. Now imagine a bunch of people going up to the moon in 200 years and going DUDE THUMBS LMAO

You missed the entire point you dumb fucks.

He didn't need to keep going up there and blotting out the earth for kicks. It was an insight he took with him for the rest of his life. Cultures that partake in psychedelics normally have good rules that outline how to maximize functionality out of them, such as
>do them rarely
>approach them respectfully
>follow a ritual or tradition that will help you put into context what you're feeling, seeing and experiencing.

You got the abstract bit right, but specifically NOT omniscient, as that would require a kind of infinite power of thought. Can only 'think' in one place at a time, where it is is where its attention is.

Discuss how certain words came to be and then came to be obscene or taboo. And to get some things out of the way, if the story involves an acronym origin it is pretty much guaranteed to be wrong.

How do you define "merit"?
>Claim or title to commendation or esteem; excellence, worth.
>A commendable quality, an excellence
How would you convert such vague wishy-washy subjectivity to an objective classification to apply to something as subjective as peoples' highly individualistic tastes in visual art?

It is hard to describe Christianity without ascribing it to any specific religious and ritualistic practice.

Many people call it a path, a way to life, not a religion.

The Early Church is likely the early assemblies of people who gathered in Yeshua's name, and is also likely to have existed before Christ came about. Matthew 23 is a great example about Yeshua and His take on the Pharisees and the religious leaders at the time and brought about a reformation to Israel, and the redemption and salvation of sins.

What do we know about Yeshua?
>and Yeshua went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom, and healing all manner kf sickness, and all manner of disease among the people Matthew 4:23
He is known for teaching in synagogues and healing the sick.

>and He came out of the grave after His resurrection and went into the Holy city and appeared unto many Matthew 27:53
Christians believe in the death and resurrection of Christ and also follow the teachings He left behind as they are alive with us today

What about the teachings?
> "And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.” Mark 11:25
The hardest idea to understand is love and forgiveness to those who cause us trouble.

Christ says "follow me"
> "Those who serve me must follow me. My servants will be with me wherever I will be. If people serve me, the Father will honor them." John 12:26
Servants can be synonymous with disciple.

God bless. Let's have a good thread.

>Yeshua said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6

Mentioned this in another thread, Yeshua says that He is the Way. No one goes to the Father but through Him. He tells us to love nothing but the truth, and that He is the life.

>"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 3:2

This is pretty much to say that when we repent our sins, we begin the process to purify ourselves, which is one of the key qualities in establishing a relationship between us and God.
>>
Just a few more ideas of where thread might go.

So whatever denomination you are, or not, not here to discuss theology as much as the wisdom and basic teachings of Yeshua.

It is important to understand that the Gospels are more about the teachings of Christ rather than a full synopsis of His life. We merely only get a glimpse of Yeshua's wisdom in the Gospel from when He is baptized and after the Crucifixion.

>Behold, a virgin shall be with child, an shall bring forth a son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel which is being interpreted "God is with us"

God is with us!

The Gospel is only a piece of what we experience when we establish or re-establish our eternal connection to the Father.

So ITT, let's talk about the teachings of Christ, who teaches us the Way to God, and teaches us useful practice in the face of adversity and affliction.

>For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. Romans 8:5-6

It is easy to be overcome by worldly desire, in fact many teachings of today encourage indulgence.

Mindfulness of the spirit of things here is obviously preferred.

Depends on Kurts

Turkish Kurts - Niggers of Turkey
Iraqi/Syrian Kurts - More civilised than other neighbours, save from Assyrian whose clay they steal
Iranian Kurts - No idea, they're Sunni but don't give that much fug muh iranic brotherhood

I'm mean its all over the bible?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usury


"And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked."
—Luke 6:34-35


"…Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow. Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?"
—Luke 19:22-23

Exodus 22:24 (25)—If thou lend money to any of My people, even to the poor with thee, thou shalt not be to him as a creditor; neither shall ye lay upon him interest.

So yeah? Why do devout Christians have a 401K and interest bearing savings accounts?

How can they reconcile that?

Yeah, if Protestants are all about capitalism, why are they for something that is all about charging interest (especially to the poor).

It specifically says in the Bible not to do that.

Yet many modern Christians are like... But muh 401K!
