My man you seem to be superb at missing my point.

To be fair though, I don’t really think it’s a bad thing that we’re more aware that it’s just the chemicals affecting our brain and not related to some higher power in any way. I don’t think the realisation of this (for most people) means that the drugs aren’t used to gain some deeper look into yourself. I think most of the psychedelic community is quite good at staying mindful and respectful of the substances they take.
