Science Has Often Resisted New Ideas And

Most Of The So-called Illegal Drugs Have Vastly Increased In Use, Despite Billions Of Dollars Spent Suppressing Them. I Believe 750,000 Americans Are Arrested Every Year For Possession Of Cannabis. I Mean That's 750, 000 Lives Damaged By That Arrest Process. It's A Crazy, Crazy System. It's Playing Into The System That The Hallucinogens Are Grouped Together With Addictive Drugs, Which They Are Not. But Addictive Or Not It's Our Responsibility As Adults To Make Decisions And It's Not The States' Right To Do That, In My Opinion.

Just Plain Logic Says That The War On Drugs Does Not Work. It Absolutely Does Not Work. We Have This Highly Addictive Legal Drug Called Tobacco Which Has Never Resulted In People Being Sent To Prison, But There Has Been A Massive Reduction In Its Consumption Simply Because Responsible Adults Looking At Their Own Bodies Have Said They Don't Want To Do That To Themselves.

I See Myself As A Journalist Reporting Neglected Stories About Our Past And Trying To Bring Rigor, Reason And Intuition To The Quest.

If This Is How Science Operates, By Silencing Those Who Express Opposing Views Rather Than By Debating With Them, Then Science Is Dead And We Are In A New Era Of The Inquisition.

I Believe We Are A Species With Amnesia, I Think We Have Forgotten Our Roots And Our Origins. I Think We Are Quite Lost In Many Ways. And We Live In A Society That Invests Huge Amounts Of Money And Vast Quantities Of Energy In Ensuring That We All Stay Lost. A Society That Invests In Creating Unconsciousness, Which Invests In Keeping People Asleep So That We Are Just Passive Consumers Or Products And Not Really Asking Any Of The Questions.
