Amanita86 said: I have a bunch of bible passages that could be interpreted as referring to entheogens and they are referreded to as manna. If that’s what they are talking about it is said in context as food or a way too God, not as being God. I’ll get them up here when I feel like gathering them together but a few google searches will pull them up, I’m sure you’ll have no trouble should you decide to put in the footwork.
I will not be a flamer on here but also part of my life involves a quest for truth and facts among the interpretation of the bible, although I will say that I should probably read it MUCH more, that's beside my point.
"It is said in context as FOOD or A WAY TO GOD". This "Manna from heaven" I believe, are a MEANS OF OBTAINING GOD! They are Not Actually God.
God told Moses "I Am That I Am," this is most commonly, and by myself, interpreted to mean He Lives Through Man as He Created Us in His Image.
If the knowlege that the God of Moses was Entheogens had survived the editors of the Old Testament, there would have been no need for the appearance of Christ.
8"How can you say, 'We are wise, And the law of the LORD is with us'? But behold, the lying pen of the scribes Has made it into a lie. 9"The wise men are put to shame, They are dismayed and caught; Behold, they have rejected the word of the LORD, And what kind of wisdom do they have?… -- Jeremiah, 8, 8
It is clear that by the time of Christ, the "Jews" no longer knew who God was. That is why Christ said that the world didn't know God and that His Mission was to reveal the Name of God.
It is clear that the Hebrews had alot of Entheogens. E.g.:
The "Burning Bush" which said: "I am that I am". Here it is obvious -- this is a Plant that was God!!! My understanding is that this Plant was a red Amanita growing under a small pine tree. It would seem like the bush was on fire but not being consumed. Wasson believed that this red Amanita was the original Creator God of the Hindus called Soma.
The "Manna": In Exodus, 16,14 Manna is described as being "a fine, flake-like thing" like hoarfrost on the ground.
(Hoarfrost)
(Psilocybin Mycilium
The Book of Numbers (11, 7) says that Manna arrives with the dew during the night, just like mushrooms. They had to be collected before the heat of the sun caused Them to melt and breed worms --which happens to mushrooms. They were described as white, which is the color of mycelium, and also as the color of coriander seed. Coriander seed is brownish yellow, which is the color of the Psilocybin Mushrooms Themselves.

Psilocybin Mushrooms
And guess what all of the wood in the "Trysting Tent", where the people would go to meet with God, was made of? -- ACACIA.
And as many Shroomery readers know -- many species of Acacia bark contain DMT.
And for Marijuana:
This is an excerpt from a usenet thread:
From: Dennis Shields (konagold@ilhawaii.net) Subject: CANNABIS IS A SACRAMENT OF MOSES [was] Why Christians Hate POT!!! Newsgroups: alt.2600, alt.censorship, alt.christnet, alt.culture.usenet, alt.drugs, alt.drugs.culture, alt.drugs.pot, alt.drugs.psychedelics Date: 1996/02/25
[....] Cannabis use in the Old Testament was again looked at in 1936, by Sula Benet. Unlike Creighton, who felt that cannabis was never mentioned directly, Benet stated that the original Hebrew versions of the old testament and the Aramaic translations contained references to cannabis by name; "In the original Hebrew text of the Old Testament there are references to hemp, both as incense, which was an integral part of religious celebration, and as an intoxicant." . The name cannabis is generally thought to be of Scythian origin, but Benet argues that it has a much earlier origin in Semitic languages like Hebrew, occurring several times in the Old Testament. . Benet also informs us of hemp’s role as a sacred oil, stating that in Exodus 30:23 God commands Moses to make a holy anointing oil of myrrh, sweet cinnamon, kaneh bosm, and kassia. He continues that the word kaneh bosm is also rendered in traditional Hebrew as kannabos or kannabus and that the root "kan" in this construction means "reed" or "hemp", while "bosm" means "aromatic". This word appeared in Exodus 30:23, Isaiah 43:24, Jeremiah 6:20, Eziekiel 27:19, Song of Songs 4:14. An ancient Hebrew religious requirement was that the dead be buried in hemp (referred to as Kaneh) shirts (Klien 1908). For some unknown reason this word disappeared from the text. and has been mistranslated as calamus..'The error occurred in the oldest Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, Septuagint in the third century B.C., where the terms *kaneh, kaneh bosm were incorrectly translated as 'calamus'. And in the many translations that followed, including Martin Luther's, the same error was repeated.'. **( from 'Cannabis and Culture', Vera Rubin Editor, and 'The Book of Grass', Edited by Andrews and Vinkenoog ).
