What do you guys think of the stoned ape theory?

Did psychedelics facilitate our evolution?

Maybe, I think it's a possibility but if anything it would of only been one of many factors aiding our evolution and not solely from it.

I doubt there can even be any kind of proof one way or the other though.

It's always a fun concept to ponder, and it's certainly plausible.

I think it's pretty plausible considering how psychedelics change the way you perceive things so drastically. Maybe our ancestors were stuck in a stage of eveolution and psilocybin gave them a outlook on how to utilize different tools and different methods of obtaining certain foods? vvveerrryyy interesting subject IMO :strokebeard: I guess we'll never know :sad:

I think a lot of most cave art was psychedelically inspired.

I agree with both the stoned ape theory as well as the concept of ancient aliens. 

Look to those who live in the Amazon.  Their technology has been passed down from generation to generation.  Of all the stuff growing in the rainforest, how the hell did they discover that the brew of a particular root and certain vine would provide an expansion of consciousness?

There is scientific proof that our species took a giant leap in the development of consciousness around the same time that psilocybin appeared, and I see no other explanation.

If our ancestors were roaming the olden plains, how could they not pass up a potential meal growing where they step.  It is obvious that mankind knows of these entheogens, it's just a matter of at which point they discovered them.

I agree. Also every primative group has stories of someone comming from somewhere and teaching them how to run a civilization. Some even living with them for some time. There is deffinitly a push from some outside source.

Good book on the subject http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0517887290/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1437060296&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SY200_QL40&keywords=fingerprints+of+the+gods

I think that a change in diet could certainly facilitate change in the evolution of man. However, it is a stretch to pick out psychedelic mushrooms as the one food source that made us what we are. There would have been a lot of new food in the diets of apes as the ventured out into the world. The combination of new foods and environment probably caused changes we see today. It's a cool thought though.

actually when people settled down in civilizations their brains got smaller. It was prob the agricultural revolution that caused people to settle down in permanent established communities. that or aliens n mushrooms.

Fingerprints of the Gods was an intense read, certainly validated a lot of theories in my eyes.

I just got his new book but haven't cracked it yet, it's pretty thick!

I believe in that the aquatic ape theory occurred the. The stoned ape theory finished up the job of getting those apes to become human.

Can you link scientific proof for the time psilocybin arrived on the planet? I tried looking and can't find anything other then aztec people probably took them and nothing saying when psilocybin first appeared, also I feel the development of language and agriculture would of been a huge push in consciousness or at least made it possible to push our consciousness to do things it was already capable of.

Aliens is a stretch IMO, and to me it's only slightly more probable then god intervening, and I don't think that happened ever but again it's only my opinion.

I think ancestors during in the beginng of time must've Been so wrapped up on mushrooms that they referred to them for everything IE : rituals , daily enhancements , hunting/fighting tools , sex , deep connections with consciousness, the earth , animals  , other people. Mushrooms possibly helped build personality &  character back when people were ape brains.
when im trippin I feel like  im an actor and everything is cartoonish and fake which may describe the visions of aliens and other cartoonish characters.

Western culture has a fear of the unknown that  mushrooms are devil worship and black magic because they are used in indigenous cultures. The youth culture is indigenous to the pale stale males whom push this anti drug agenda so IMO there's a deep,rooted hatred for indigenous people who have a good time without being a corporate slave.

Mushooms provide the free love "Jesus" is suppose to provide so religious fucks get mad when you question their answers because they didnt ask the correct questions.

Idk McKenna is a nut case but the stoned ape theory is plausible because of all the evidence that mushrooms have been used for almost ever.

I'm not sure our animalistic relatives could have conceived of anything like a god without the psychedelic experience
