A message for our Christian brothers

It is not lost on me that some of my Christian brothers have deep reservations about partaking in a pagan ritual, and or using the Sacrament of psilocybin for any reason. I hope you will give me a chance here to alleviate those concerns as much as I can.

Let us start with the use of psilocybin ( aka magic mushrooms) first, as that is much easier to address. I have heard Christian concerns that they are a gateway to possession, that they open a door to let demonic influences in. To which I say, were you given dominion over the Earth or not?

Genesis 1:26-28

King James Version

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Psilocybin is used in its natural form, directly from the ground, no processing required. Which is more than I can say for alcohol. Fermentation is a chemical change, it must be done deliberately. Or SSRI's, which I am 100% confident someone in your church uses on a daily basis. Some of you micro-dose your children with methamphetamine so they can pay attention at school. Marijuana is a low order hallucinogenic, yet we don't see it condemned from the pulpit in the same fashion. Most of you aren't arguing about mind altering substances at all, merely the acceptable medium of delivery. This reminds me of old timey Southern prosecutors, three scotch's deep at 10 am, talking about the evils of the devils lettuce. Which I have personally witnessed. Mushrooms are a gift, from the creator of our planet, and they have a purpose. It wasn't made in a lab, and it doesn't have to be chemically concentrated to work.

The second, the purely doctrinal concerns, are a bit harder to help with. The decision is always yours, but I do hope you will at least hear my position. When I conduct a ritual with a Christian in the group, I am sensitive to parts which he may not want to participate in. If you prefer not to have a rune casting, a wave of the hand is all that is needed. Time is always offered for you to pray to the Christian God for guidance if you like. Do you, personally, lack the faith to attend a pagan ritual and turn it into a Christian ritual for yourself? You've never had a Christmas tree in your house, or hidden an Easter egg?

The All Father gave me this path at least partially because it gives us an iron clad link to a tradition that has been using psilocybin for 6000 years. For that matter, psilocybin itself was legal in parts of Europe until 2005. Which is extremely important when it comes to the legality under US law for sacramental use of otherwise restricted substances. The Lord works in mysterious ways, I am told. Is it so difficult to believe He gave this task to the pagans, purely to work within the confines of American law? Is that not Divine Intervention, though perhaps in a way you would not expect?

I am merely trying to help you, with the path I was given to follow. I suggest you pray about it, examine my intentions, and make your own decision. An informed decision, but your decision.
