Does anybody KNOW if smoking the gill part of Amanita Muscaria is bad?

I am a little upset to be frank, My previous post on the subject was closed by a moderator. I was called a troll when I searched this site and MANY others looking for one simple answer and instead it was assumed I was asking a question thats already been answered. Many here have experience smoking Amanita Muscaria. Yes there are many threads explaining it is better to eat them by comparison. All I wanna know is this -
I've read that people peel the cap off of the Amanita and smoke it. Is there a reason that they dont smoke the gills?
So if you were to crush a dried cap up gills and all is there any danger involved? Is there any known accounts of someone who has smoked fungus and died?
I have read the only cases of people inhaling spores were employees on mushroom farms due to high exposure.
Im not trying to start anything here. I just felt my questions havent been answered and that Im not a troll.

I have also been wondering If dry hitting a bowl of dried amanita would be a danger in inhaling spores? One poster told me the spores are combusted before you inhale them and not to worry, but whadda bout dry hitting a bowl of dried Amanita.

Yes there is. The gills are very low in psychoactive chemicals and to experience any effects it would require a lot of material. And that smoke is by no means pleasant or enjoyable. So of course it is more sensible to take only the skin which contains the highest concentrations of chemicals and smoke the least amount of material. But there is no danger involved in smoking the gills, no evil spores will attack you and infest your brain.

Thank you very much Tangich!!!! Im so sorry to be upset. 
here is a definition of a troll:
In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally[3][4] or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[5] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[6]
I do not believe I was trolling because the answer is was not here on the forum (is now TY) and its not off topic. I appreciate your help! I love this site!! I dont want to be treated as if I am starting crap either.

As far as trolling goes, just depends on who the Mod is. Mods play favorites here just like anywhere else in the world. You know what power does to someone who has never had it before.

You would be surprised how many people actually think that. They saw one documentary on the effect of Cordyceps on bugs, and now think that inhaling any mushroom spores will have the same effect on humans.

Unless you are dead set on smoking it, I'd say eat em.
I decided to go ahead and consume the one that I found. It was a very pleasurable experience for me.
The only side effect was that my lymph nodes swelled almost immediately after ingestion. This was yesterday, and the swelling has gone down now... Not sure what that was about. It kinda freaked me out.
I tried smoking some. I don't think there was any effects from smoking it.

TY Dcart I'm glad you had a good experience with this mushroom! Im sorry to hear about your lymph nodes, glad the swelling went down. Did you dry it first? I only ask because Im too scared to eat on raw
I have read mixed opinions on the subject of smoking Amanita. Personally I noticed effects and dont believe it is because of the placebo effect.

I think the other thread was closed because it's a bit ridiculous to want to smoke shrooms. Just eat em.

Some would say that no sane person would ever even consider willingly inhaling smoke from burning any plant or fungal material.  But we do. And smoking Amanita muscaria does produce psychoactive effects.

TY tahp93  Lots of people all over the world have smoked the skin off the caps of Amanita. I know most peoples opinion is not to smoke them just eat them and Im fine with that generalization. I however believe since there are so many interested in the subject. Posts about the subject should be treated with care. Somebody out there is worried about consuming the spores or wondering if it does have effects. They may have also already tried it and are scared out of their minds searching for an answer to whether or not they made a grave mistake.

Well there's no way spores can grow in you. Wouldn't they be doing that when you eat the mushrooms? I say go for it and report back how it is

Yeah Ive met people who think smoking MJ is very bad!!! They frown on anyone who smokes it like I frown on meth heads, heroin users or crackheads. Its all a matter of opinion. Theyre like assholes lol. Everyones got one. All I can say is that everything we need to heal ourselves is already here on earth. Whether it be mentally or physically. Ive seen old timers live over a hundred years old that eat horribly bad diets and smoke cigarettes and drink coffee. I know a guy who is a crackhead and hes 76 years old! He smokes 3 packs of cigarettes a day when hes got them and hes never even been to the hospital he says lol.Quote:

I thought the same thing. If you eat them your stomach is prime conditioning for such funguses to grow as well as the lungs. I have already done it. Was just worried that I made a grave mistake. I get a warm light headed feeling, sometimes a bit anxious or angry but not that bad
