Documentaries on LSD

[Ziggin' and a Zaggin']

Documentaries I will be watching later this evening on a specialty digital cable channel we can subscribe to in Eastern Canada (the Documentary Channel):

How To Go Out of Your Mind: The LSD Crisis (1966)

Hofmann's Potion: LSD documentary

As you probably have noticed, both of these documentaries are available online. I chose to watch them in a more comfortable setting (for me, at least)... the good ol' living-room! I already spend too much time in front of the computer anyway. I had caught the last 10 minutes of How To Go Out of Your Mind last week. It's with some measure of anticipation that I look forward to seeing the whole thing especially after reading Acid Dreams not too long ago.

If any of you have seen them already, your comments would be appreciated.

I'll definitely check these out, though they will only bring repose.

Personally I think the prohibition of inebriatory sacraments is the single most outstanding violation of human rights on the planet.

It is more pressing to me than 9/11 and the War or Human Trafficking.

Religions that are not crushed in carnage are banned in complicity with it's adherents. Some people would like to blame 9/11 on 'illuminists' or 'jacobites' and 'cabalists', and perhaps rightly so, but the price we are paying for stifling communion is far far heavier than a few buildings and a suburban cemetary. I straddle Huxley and Leary's ideas on who should dose and and how, but both are made moot once we step inside the parameters of human rights and our own constitution, AND the existential responsibilities of say, and astronaut of skydiver. Or gunowner. Or...children. Raising children is alot like an acid test. If people were let to follow their own self-proven principles to fruition whether grand or small, evolution would be allowed to take over again. The human mind would change along with the symbols and cultures. Problems that have riled us in the sciences for the last century would dissolve...and there's no other way to term it.
Dissolve.

Of course that takes a lot of faith, but if you haven't got any faith, you're really just dead and all your birthdays are funeral rehearsals.
