Mushrooms

These symptoms suggested that our evolution, I suppose from the Animal kingdom into the Human kingdom was catalyzed, or triggered by our encounter with these hallucinogenics.

We are an ape with a symbiotic relationship to a mushroom, and that has given us self reflection, language, religion, and all the spectrum of effects that flow from these things.

And one can only wonder how these hallucinogens might effect our future evolution as well.

You know what disturbs me slightly? The sporocarp is the fungus' reproductive organ, so picking mushrooms is like cutting off someone's penis and eating it.
