the antichrist conspiracy

In my opinion, christianity today is in general just an extreme corruption of the message of Jesus Christ. Now, im just begining to study religious history, but it seems to me that the message of Jesus has been twisted over the centuries so much that it has really become the opposite of what it was. According to many religious historians, Jesus was basically a shaman who used many psychoactive plants, especially marijuana to induce visions. A recent High Times article (i know it may not be the most unbiased source) explained that the baptismal ceremony originally used a concoction that was basically marijuana extracted into olive oil with many fragrant herbs and such added. When rubbed on the skin, the skin would absorb the THC and it would make you stoned. Later in the history of chiristianity (I think around 500 AD), the church divide into the Gnostics who continued to practice this baptism by mj, and the roman catholic church. At this point the catholics persecuted anyone who didn't follow church law, and the baptism became nothing more than a placeabo. The catholic church then continued to destroy anyone who opposed them, and for more than a thousand years used thier version of Jesus to keep millions under their control. Now since every version of christianity today is derived from catholicism (i may be wrong on this), none truely represents the message of christ. I think that the influence of the vatican in current society has been underestimated, and they continue to deny the people of the world the true message of Jesus. This in my opinion makes the catholic church literally the antichrist. This is probably a huge reason for the continued prohibition of mj and other drugs. I believe that Jesus knew of the enlightenment that could be gained through psychoactive substances, and he spread this to his followers. He knew that people did not need the church to experience god, and that god could be experienced directly by people through the use of psychoactive sacraments. This in my opinion is why Christianity spread so quickly in its infancy, because people were able to experience god directly. The church was scared that people would realize they were no longer necessary, and did everything in its power distort this message to fit their needs. Anyways, as i said i have just begun to study religious history, so i may be wrong on some of these things, but what do you think?

That is basically what happened. Mushrooms are the Body of Christ. The blood of Christ is wine and we are supposed to believe the body of Christ is bread haha:)

"marijuana"
ive heard about that conspiracy,but i now think its more about the issues of conceiusness that surround the issue.
When the government flashs the commericals about how it will make you crazy, and mutate your kids. Well i have a funny feeling that these two concepts will brought up during the great evolution. Its going to be easy to call the new found-psions, the anti-christs!!

The gospels are not a complete history. Neither is the rest of the bible.

The Gospel of Thomas is a good one to read:
http://www.misericordia.edu/users/davies/thomas/Trans.htm
it wasnt considered suitable for inclusion in the bible... do a google for it, theres loads of info out there
