014: Psychedelics, Beliefs, Delusions, Divine Providence, and the Long Arc of the Universe
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
We wander through various questions: Can psychedelics change us to change the world, or do they just ‘intensify’ our fundamental character? How do set, setting, and intentions factor in? With a government that’s being run “like a business,” should we think of ourselves as shareholders or as customers? Are the bad guys winning?
Mentioned in this episode
Heaven Help Us (1985 film) and the ‘confession’ scene where Kevin Dillon’s character helps his classmates renegotiate their sin lists:
Rebecca Solnit, A Paradise Built in Hell, The Extraordinary Communities that Arise in Disaster
