I also found it to be very interesting, I specially noticed that he mentioned the relation with Cannabis and religion during the ages and amongst many different cultures. _________________ █ Please read the Board Rules and Posting, and you

I liked how he talked about how forgetting actually is useful. I also liked when he talked about Frederich Nietzsche, because I remember the cattle quote from the book I read He really did challenge quite a few things there, im glad I watched it, very good. Thanks for the share  _________________ "It's really amazing for me to see the ripples in the pond caused by casting a few pebbles" -Aeroplane
