Well as to looking on the bright side I think if I remember the interview right TM wasn't too happy with his brain tumor and it was causing him a lot of pain and depression at the end. That part of reality caught up with him.
When the interviewer asked him about his theories he said if I remember this right that he didn't really much care about them anymore but was very interested in the ice cream waiting for him after the interview.

I guess this means you don't have any evidence. 

I resign my argument...I wasn't in a proper mindstate when I made it and I cant back it up...Fail.

admitting it is makes it not a fail at all. It's very rare that anyone ever does this here. you are to be commended imo.

I dont think its a wrong assumption to think that any psychedelic substance consumed routinely would be capable of doing just that.

Yeah, it's testable so it would have been replicated, there is no reason we shouldn't be able to replicate and would have if it were true . . .

Thats bold since it would have been over millions of years. I would also like to prove evolution but I cant seem to figure out an experiment to evolve single cells into fish in less than a few million years.
