In regards to eating meat

As I said before, beta-carbolines are what enhance the effect of DMT... and DMT is what causes us to feel that sense of interconnectedness or "spirituality" that we seek... indeed the seeking of this feeling is at the very root of addiction, IMO.

Therefore... why so quick to label these things as "bad"? Is there an agenda behind this? Perhaps to keep us from understanding something important about how the body works? At the very least, you must admit that humans have had a very close relationship with coffee/cacao/tobacco throughout our evolutionary process. Is there a reason for this other than "addiction"?

Awesome insight, TN, makes so much sense....not only the root of addiction, but probably the root of so many other mental/emotional/ and physical pathologies. Really interesting thought.

Great discussion on the microbes Monica and all, wish I had time to really delve into it.
