I was hoping you'd pop in and say something like "DUDE! No worries! Bad trips are a myth! You will be fine, and I will need you to pm me your home address so I can send you a sample to try out, for which I will take the hit (no pun intended) for the shipping charges of course."

I smell an anon. And yeah, I realize a lot of Christian bands are straight edge. I work with my church a lot (Do NOT mistake me for the blind Christian, I make my own choices based on my own ideas and believe in a just God. My beliefs however also include the possibility that I'm wrong and any number of ideas are right, I accept my religions flaws, and move past them, I trust you will too).

One of my favorite punk core/almost Christian band's is He is Legend, they played at The Soulfest a year ago, so they're a borderline band (amazing show btw).

Like I stated before, personality quirks can be made much worse with drugs, if you truly are "paranoid" I wouldn't recommend fucking with your perception. Or I'll least I'll make sure I'm no where near you at the time!

Also, about the thread getting out of hand, it certainly has gone farther than the intention of the original post, but I like the discussion. Talking about drugs and revealing truths and misconceptions is always an interesting topic.

Thats what I was saying it is a good thing to be interacting with people. Weed usually makes it the other way, to hard to communicate properly and way less social. More introspective and "in your head" way more thinking which is hard to control.

Don't read this if your sick of druggy talk!

And yeah bad trips arn't a myth. I've never had one but I've had little flashes of it. I was sitting at my computer listening to necrophagist with my mate and the music was just way to intense for him, and suddenly his face looked like two exact copys side to side. Like someone just took one side of his face and copyed it and flipped over to the other side. Then instead of vague breathing walls my whole vision went like I was looking at everything through a heat haze. I got this massive feeling of "holy shit what have I goten into?" so I got the fuck out of that room and everything went back to normal. It felt very much like I was slipping into something bad. But when I was out of the room everything was good and we went back to talking about Alien Space Dj's and such.

Bill Hicks

He's a good guy to listen to if you have fixed idea's about wheather drugs are "right" or "wrong".

He's a good guy to listen to about anything really.

Edit: Or should I say 'was'.

I don't really get the idea that artists cannot create good music if they're straight. Maybe some can't because they don't really have any creativity in them or if they've used themselves up during the years of their career, so they resort to alcohol/drugs, in hope that they may become their muse. Others just seem to have an addiction and don't bother to get rid of it. I congratulate those who do, or at least try to.

Having that said, I think everyone has a right to do pretty much what they want as long as they don't endanger others in the process. It's their life.

As far as I'm concerned, a can or two of beer has been my peak, and I intend to stay that way. Drugs, nah. I'll just get addicted, and I don't have the money for a steady supply
