DRUGS. This word very often has an extremely negative connotation. And, I am not talking about medical drugs prescribed by a doctor. I am talking about the type of drugs that altars a persons state of mind so inherently that a person hallucinates. The dictionary definition of a drug states, "a substance that has a physiological effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body." Though this denotation is used to describe both medically prescribed drugs and street uses of drugs, many people fear the word because of its reputation. The use of Ecstasy and LSD at music concerts has grown substantially as a way for teens and young adults to experience music, and yet hallucinogens used to be used to see God. This is a short video related to a traditional verses contemporary usage of drugs and how the use of drugs have evolved from use for religious experiences to a social over usage.
