Complete bunk. A theory without any evidence whatsoever is religion.

It's just an idea that a flaky drug user thought up to make his hobby sound more legitimate.

This data is discussed in great detail in Food of the Gods, however I lent my copy out so am unable to cite. 
I am not too dead set to stand by this, we all know Mckenna spoke out of his ass at times, but I will dig for the info alil later-

Absence of evidence is certainly reason why a theory should be dismissed out of hand.

So the many people falsely imprisoned because their wasn't enough evidence to clear them should just stay because there's no evidence? :whatever:

I mean a "Fake" is a far cry from what he was.  I'll agree its kinda fucked up to tell people to take heroic doses when you yourself don't adhere to that paradigm.  Then again I think he was trying to forward human consciousness.  To that end I can kind of understand why he would stand behind his earlier nature.

Yeah i'm well aware he's got an agenda, i certainly don't put him on a pedestal.

He's just got some interesting ideas.

Ridiculous. Has been discussed before and I provided an argumentation back then. I don't feel like looking it up so I'll give the short version: delusional crack pot theory lacking Any credible evidence nor a plausible argument.

I don't think anyone's trying to push it as fact just exploring the possibility

it's undeniable psychedelics have had a great impact on humans, the exact extent we will never know

I'm exploring the possibility it was indeed the theory of a stoned ape.

No there wasn't. And nobody was theorizing about them either.

Im just curious how one even came across the mushrooms in the first place

by that I don't mean where they found them at. What I mean is, who in their right mind would go walking down a prairie or whatever and would look down at some cow sh*t and see a mushroom growing out of it and think to themselves, "I think I'll eat that"

Not only would you have to eat that one which as well know tastes gruesome as all hell, but you'd have to keep on eating and eating until you had enough in you to actually trip in the first place

so with that said, it blows my mind at the very first ape to actually try this

he must have just had a really bad day or something and said fuk it you know those purple looking things growing out of that wilderbeast sh*t over there, yah im gonna eat that sh*t till i puke fuk it how much worse could life get.


then boom :mad2::mad::shocked::grin::eek::rockon::mushroom2:

Funny you should say that. One of the first well-documented accounts in the western world of psychedelic mushrooms being consumed (ps. semilanceata in this case) was of a British young lad who munched a handful of liberty caps and tripped balls. He suspected they were regular edible mushrooms and was wrong. Pretty likely some caveman made the same mistake. And another couple of hundreds did the same thing over the centuries. Nothing mysterious about that.

What. There was evidence to put them in jail. It may have been bad evidence, but people aren't randomly put in jail without it. And yes, someone who has been convicted is going to stay there until some evidence shows they shouldn't be there.
