I once was offered enough mushrooms that would allow me to "talk to God".

I declined (although was tempted)

Shortly after I learned that taking drugs (and other sorcery) is forbidden if you're a Christian. The bible uses the word "Pharmakeia" for this.

Greetings, Friend nostr:npub1axg97ls93lg59ndehhwyf5a3kyf6kgpk692tgzzxdvzhdccmlhustav8dj!🙏🏻😄🫂

I wouldn't be too dogmatic about that...🤔

I say this on the basis of Genesis 1:29 and similar Bible teachings:

"Then God said, “Behold, I have given to you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has the fruit of the tree yielding seed; it shall be food for you..."

No dogma.

The greek word "Pharmakeia" covers some pretty broad categories. It can be translated into pharmacy and sorcery.
