The Mystical Side of Alcoholism

The origins of our knowledge of mesculin, you know, really comes from james mooney and what was created as the native american church. And that that was all during the temperance and abstinence movement in the united states where mesculin was likened to alcohol intoxication. The original idea wasn't to give alcoholics a mixed mystical experience. They wanted to give them delirium tremens,. like, they wanted to make it really uncomfortable and scare the shit out of them. Instead they're like, oh, my goodness, i saw god. Really need to put down the bottle.
