The post didn't bother about the socializing effects of the drugs since they are subjective and can be bad and good. I rather focused debunking the "spiritual" claims which are bullshit with no scientific evidence to support them.
kind reminder that even alcohol can be observed to have the same effects and most people are not alchoholics.
What you're fundamentally arguing against is spirituality is a concept, not whether or not hallucinogenics can induce spiritual experiences. Nothing 'spiritual' can be proven objectively.
I am arguing that both are bullshit.
very harsh terminology. short-sighted, even.
not short-sighted, just not taking into account experiences despite his/her own
you can argue this but these are philosophical questions that are quite frankly unable to be answered
