IMO either nothing is sacred or everything is. It's all attitude rather than substance.

"Let us put our trust in the eternal spirit which destroys and annihilates only because it is the unsearchable and eternally creative source of all life"
"I praise, I do not reproach, [nihilism's] arrival. I believe it is one of the greatest crises, a moment of the deepest self-reflection of humanity. Whether man recovers from it, whether he becomes master of this crisis, is a question of his strength."

Its the whole slippery slope idea, but i doubt the success the g-man will have when there is already such a big shroom support network over there.

No that was a senseless comment made out of boredom caused by the lack of compelling threads in P&S.

That's why most of what we both say is senseless comments made out of boredom.

I wonder how many people kill themselves from watching fucked up TV, failing exams or break up with their boyfriends/girlfriends... maybe they should ban those too...
Fuck it, I say, ban life, cause cause this is the basic opportunity to commit suicide!

its a recreational drug for me, like alcohol or opium. im neither rasta or sufis or anything close to that , cannabis can be concideret by some sacred , i know all about this, but for me its not sacred, mushrooms are.. so it was just my opinion, i cant go around taking every goddamn religion into concideration when i make an opinion about something.
Ahh, I am very into world religions, ancient religions, mythology etc. So I, by habit, actually *do* try to take every religion into consideration when assessing the sanctity of any mind-altering substance or situation. Thus I consider alcohol, opium, coca, etc. all to be equally sacred. I have never felt one substance (in its most natural form) to be more or less sacred than others. Some are definitely more pleasant, others more difficult. This is a difference in thinking between us that I have no problems with. Thanks for answering my question as to why cannabis was singled-out.

Just wondering, does anybody know an email address I could right to so that I could send a more personal letter to the Dutch government? Because I would want to do more than just sign the petition.

They sent me e-mail about organizing a demonstration against the banning of shrooms. It came from geenreactie@reddepaddo.nl but I've no idea if you can actually write back to this address or not.

Protesters in bid to save magic mushies
http://www.theage.com.au/news/World/Protesters-in-bid-to-save-magic-mushies/2007/10/28/1193506334295.html
Protesters turned out on Amsterdam's central Dam Square on Saturday, hoping to stop the government from banning magic mushrooms and asking to "save the 'shrooms".
Carrying banners reading "When will they ban bread?" and "Boss of your own brain", more than 100 people, some wearing hats resembling the bright red cap of the popular fly agaric variety, protested to keep hallucinogenic mushrooms legal.
After several incidents involving tourists - in March, a French teenager jumped to her death from a bridge after taking mushrooms - the Dutch government plans to ban them.
Arno Adelaars, author of a book on magic mushrooms, said this would only drive users underground and what was needed instead was better information on how to use mushrooms properly.
"It's only foreigners who have this problem, the Dutch don't because they have good information," he said.
"Amsterdam is like a pilgrimage for youngsters in Europe - they come here to get high in all kinds of ways.
"The typical young tourist that comes here drinks an awful lot of beer, smokes an awful lot of grass, and then takes mushrooms. That's the recipe for disaster."
