You're calling people that take pcp and the belief moronic, but you don't see a problem with modifying your brain to enhance your sensory input? So it's okay to alter your frontal left lobe but stay away from that frontal right man, that's dangerous?? Sounds l ike a simple double standard that barely holds up just because it applies to you yourself.
Would you for yourself want the last time you were with your dying father, to be a dead-drunk encounter? Because hey, it loosened you up. For that matter, would you want the last image he retains of you be one reeking of booze? Suck it up, realise you're not gonna give an award-winning speech and see it through instead of trying to escape or circumvent it.

I don't think you understood anything I said. I did not say taking pcp was moronic. I said believing one can fly is moronic. The thing about salt was a point about molecules which contain other molecules or atoms not acting like the molecules that they contain do on their own. I said if a drug could accomplish those things I wanted them to I would take it. Obviously, alcohol would not.
If I had said taking pcp was moronic I could have done so without creating a double standard, because pcp and mdma are two completely different sustances. I bet you drink water, but I bet you don't eat cyanide, sounds like a double standard to me.
