Psychedelics in the Bible – What the Church Doesn’t Teach You (Part 1: Was Moses Hallucinating) at the Burning Bush?)

Psychedelics are a class of hallucinogenic drugs that alter the user’s mood and impact various cognitive processes. Proponents of such substances say they benefit from feelings of relaxation, introspection, and an improved sense of well-being. Furthermore, many users have described intense spiritual experiences.

Writers from the Beat Generation, such as Jack Kerouac and William Burroughs, are credited with popularizing psychedelics in the 1950s. The use of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) grew during this period and was even used as an experimental treatment for mental illness.
