So A Minister, A Rabbi And A Buddhist Took Drugs For Science...
An article in Huffington just knocked me out of my chair today. It describes what has come to be known as "The Good Friday Experiment" where a group of theology students were given hallucinogenics to see if it would cause mystical/spiritual experiences.
It is an interesting sidelight in history. Except, for me, it is way more than that, because my father was one of those theology students. And after that experience he was a changed man and not in a particularly good way. I have no idea if the change was a result of the experience or coincidental. But after his experience I never had the least inclination to try hallucinogenics.
It was just an interesting tidbit from my past to stumble over in the pages of Huffington talking about something that happened in 1962.
