Even though the Injuns have been doing it for centuries? You sure you just wanna poo poo all that enlightenment?
Thank Great Spirit the esteemed redskin intellectuals of Turtle Island weren't similarly close-minded and cowardly or we'd still be dancing for rain in beaver-skin bikinis.
As with many cultures, there is wisdom and ignorance to be shared and learned from and this would include the American Indian tribes. For example from Joseph Brant, a Mohawk -
"We have no robbery under the pretext of law." The Americans did and still do and they were scum for it. Earlier in the colonization of this land they also practiced germ warfare by giving the Indians pox tainted blankets. Disgusting.
I think the Oracle at Delphi was pretty much a toxic stoner as it is believed that she breathed the fumes of sulfur while sitting on a tripod above the pit and thus received her prophecies from the god Apollo. I tend to think she hallucinated. I would sooner trust to the wisdom of a statement such as the one I quoted from Mr. Brant than to a woman heavily influenced by noxious fumes. But again, there is (in general) wisdom in many if not all cultures. Truth is truth regardless of the source.
Raquel Welch in One Million Years B.C. wore a prehistoric beaver skin pelt. Or close to it.
I need a WayBack Machine to go visit prime Raquel.
