The Wikipedia article on recreational drugs needs an overhaul!
    #7604024 - 11/06/07 06:29 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recreational_drug_use

The two sections are drug abuse and drug addiction :what: :crankey:



I thought it was going to have a nice overview of the drug culture. What bullshit.

And what do you think is wrong with those sections?

...the whole experience is (and is as) a profound piece of knowledge.  It is an indellible experience; it is forever known.  I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did.

Smith, P.  Bull. Menninger Clinic (1959) 23:20-27; p. 27.

...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely.

Osmond, H.  Annals, NY Acad Science (1957) 66:418-434; p.436

They're the only sections in the article. Recreational drug use consists of nothing but addiction and abuse?

They at least have a Responsible drug use article that goes into some detail (haven't looked at it yet.) The Recreational drug use article still needs an overhaul, though.

Perhaps there should be a spirituality and personal-growth section encompassing the more positive aspects of responsible substance use.

(Like anyone will go for that (the general population, at least).

For the most part, I think a good number of Wikipedia articles are liberally-biased. The "recreational drug" topic suprises me. But I am not well qualified as to edit it.

Yeah, someone needs to add "Jenkem" to the list of inhalants.

I always considered "recreational" use as safe and responsible drug use.

I wouldn't consider addiction or abuse as recreational.
