#1 ...none reported any lingering harmful effects, and we didn't observe any clinical evidence of harm.

They should have interviewed the girl that took mushrooms and fell off a 300 foot cliff on Mount Sopris. Oh wait, she is dead.

#2 While psilocybin is widely outlawed, many U.S. states and some countries overlook its use by indigenous people in religious ceremonies.

NO! Indigenous people used Peyote in religious ceremonies. Similar effects but not religious ritual. One's a cactus, one is a fungus then there is that weed nobody talks about that grows in the jungle in Mayan areas that actually has LSD in its sap. (sh....)

#3 How could they not mention the VILE tastes of those mushrooms? No mention of the elephant killing bad breath. Nothing about how the only way to down them is inside a peanutbutter sandwich swallowed in one chew followed by chugging a beer or two....
VILE... Even worse for Peyote. Puke city....
Yeah. Talking to the toilet could be a "spiritual" experience.

Its like talking about smoking and not mentioning lung cancer.

Oh and its a really good at causing yeast infections for some women.

A positive life affirming substance.....

#4 Years ago, a couple of hippies showed me how to recognize psilocybin mushrooms and how to differentiate them from similar fungi.

They are extremely common. They grow in my back yard.

As a tea is the recommended way of ingesting them.
