LSD & The Passion Of Christ

"Bad trips" on LSD result from the eleven-hour forced introspection that the drug creates. Most cannot stand to look that closely at themselves, certainly not for that long. That's why Leary and company were getting complete cures of psychotics after five or six guided LSD trips, of course, before the government stepped in and outlawed the drug. Well, this movie ["The Passion of Christ," by Mel Gibson] is like being on acid for two straight hours, only the subject isn't yourself, it is Jesus Christ. -- Edgar J. Steele
