Religious rants

"The followers of the apocryphal gospels were not the only esoteric mystery cults around at this time. Up until 396 AD, the rites of Demeter were celebrated in the Greek city of Eleusis. These Eleusinian mysteries have been argued to have featured a potion containing LSD-like chemicals found in the fungus ergot. Originally proposed by Carl Ruck, Albert Hoffman, and R. Gordon Wasson in The Road to Eleusis, this idea has recently received striking support, as documented in The Immortality Key by Brian Muraresku. Archeo-chemical analysis has shown that a ceremonial cup from the mysteries, celebrated at the edge of the Greek empire in Catalonia, contains ergot’s remains. Muraresku makes a compelling case that the early Christian church, steeped as it was in Greek culture, may very well have taken a similar spiked wine as its central sacrament. Taken with the anointing oil, a picture begins to emerge in which Jesus sought to democratize spiritual experience, a controversial figure who encouraged all to share in the divine sacraments which had previously been only for the elites. This was as true for the potion drunk by the influential Greek at Eleusis as the Hebrew anointing oil, which God had decreed to Moses, was only to be used by the priestly class." Found a fun page that entertains such hypotheses.https://www.drjamescooke.com/read/bible Also just to add it was ergot poisoning which people suspect is what led to some of the witch trial accusations. "Many historians believe that an ergot infestation in Massachusetts caused strange activities among some women in 1691 and eventually led to the Salem witch hunts. Toxicologists now know that ergot poisoning can lead to convulsions, spasms, hallucinations, crawling sensations on the skin and erratic behaviors." https://extension.usu.edu/news_sections/gardening/ergot-plant-disease

Th greeks were not the israelities, gods people were israelites. The gentiles may have been of greek descent but that whole paragraph described the greek and their LSD like chemicals. Yet what does that mean of the hebrews. There has been buildings and altars found where people perfromed rituals with canabis and animal dung but these locations were built OUTSIDE of where God apparently commanded. I saw a video on this where they described how archaeologists found these temples and noticed how they were built and torn down in a hurry by basically whatever king was reigning at that time or wahtever. These are all trying to discredit God and prove he doesnt exist and all the people back in the day were high. Its absolutely ridiculous, we take drugs in modern society. To state that our ancestors took these drugs and hallucinated a higher life form and worshiped it. When we dont even do that today by logical standards make zero sense. They arent stupid, we look at ancient technology and they way they built their houses underground to make it more cool, the way they knew about smelting and making jewelry. Our ancestors werent stuoid. Even when you read the bible it states even among the israelites some people pracriced stuff outside of God's word. As a result they were cut off from God and killed. Just because they found some drugs in certain temples that propably werent even the temples used for the God of the hebrews doesnt mean they all used the drugs and made up God. None of that explains the tabernacles, the ark of the covenant, the 10 commandments, the specific instructions, the healing and miracles, the parting of the sea, noahs ark, those theories essentially would discredit everything within the bible on the basis of drugs. You literally cant make this stuff up, people will grasp at straws trying to disprove the bible. As for the salem witch trials, has anyone come up with actual evidence to supoort ergot poisoning? Im looking for an article with actual evidence but im not finding anything. Mainly just a bunch of people making observations like "we know ergot poisoning does this" but thats not evidence. Do we have some sort os scientific evidence like bodies with this in the system or like anything?

"Ergot is a fungus that, under the right circumstances, grows on rye. Those who consume this substance can become very ill, experiencing what is known as ergotism. There are two manifestations of ergotism; gangrenous and convulsive. Those who suffer from convulsive ergotism experience “delirium and hallucinations, accompanied by rigid, extremely painful flexed limbs, muscle spasms, convulsions, and severe diarrhea.” (Paul Schiff, 2006). According to Caporael, this could explain the behavior exhibited by the afflicted girls during the Salem witch trials, including their violent convulsions and the many stories of spectral witches and ghostly figures. A unique theory for the time, this hypothesis was almost immediately disproven by Salem witch trials scholars. At the time of publication, the author of this article was an undergraduate student taking a required history course. In her excellent lecture “The Salem Witch Trials and Ergot, the ‘Moldy Bread’ Hypothesis,” historian Margot Burns describes a conversation with Linnda Caporael about the publication of this article. As Linnda recalled, she sent in this article and by chance it was published. Shortly after the appearance of this article, Nicholas Spanos and Jack Gottieb published a full review of the theory also in Science magazine. In their response, Spanos and Gottieb firmly concluded: “The available evidence does not support the hypothesis that ergot poisoning played a role in the Salem crisis. The general features of the crisis did not resemble an ergotism epidemic. The symptoms of the afflicted girls and of the other witnesses were not those of convulsive ergotism. And the abrupt ending of the crisis, and the remorse and second thoughts of those who judged and testified against the accused, can be explained without recourse to the ergotism hypothesis” (Nicholas Spanos & Jack Gottieb, 1394). There are a few important criticisms of the ergot theory. To start, an entire family would consume the same source of rye, yet only one or two people per household became sick with the mysterious illness in almost every recorded case in 1692. For example, in the Parris home (the site where the illness began), of a household with four adults (Reverend Parris, his wife Elizabeth, Tituba and her husband John Indian) and four children, only two people became sick, 9-year-old Betty Parris and 11-year-old Abigail Williams. This would be a common pattern throughout the witchcraft panic." https://salemwitchmuseum.com/2023/05/17/debunking-the-moldy-bread-theory/

Here is that video i watched several days ago regarding the cannabis in the temple. Really convenient how i find these things either before or after a topic comes up lol https://youtu.be/dDReygTAnqw

Please watch the entire video the guy does provide alot of info. But if you cant be bothered go to the 3rd tic mark it talks about the king that created these temples.
