The Messiah
Once i was told by a friend of mind that each 2000 years, a Messiah from God comes to Earth to give us the message of salvation. First was Moises, 2000 years later, Jesus came to earth. And 2000 years later, it's time for a new messiah.
I'm not Christian, my religious believes are pretty fucked since the day i took acid, so i don't think there's a Christian god, but butterfly effect.
I think the messiah already came to earth and sent a message, and this character is nothing less than Albert Hoffman.
Napoleon once said that Alexander the Great, nor Julius Caesar, nor himself could have such a impact in history that is as great as the one Jesus had.
So my thoughts are that, without LSD, the modern society would be very different, it would be completely different as how we know it, The Beatles wouldn't be as great. Pink Floyd and later bands as Tool would not exist. Huxley would have never been such a great writer, Leary would not have had anything to write about. Computers would not exist (remember they did acid in Bell Labs, and without Bell Labs, we wouldn't have the C programming language, without C we wouldn't have UNIX, continue the chain.)
What is the message that LSD sends? A message of love, brotherood, or at least that's what I felt, and the message Jesus tried to send (but apparently everyone misunderstood) was about love, brotherhood and, must i say it, mutual aid.
As we all know, the Butterfly is a son of a bitch, you have to read the history of LSD to understand this. Summarizing: Hoffman was studying alkaloids from a fongus, and synthetrized LSD. He thought it was no big thing and ditched it. But 4 years later, he decided to synthetize LSD again and try it. And he had the first LSD trip. He synthetized LSD again because "his intuition".
Such specific and chaotic theory is something only the butterfly effect is capable of creating. But it happened.
I think that no character in modern history have had more influence than Albert Hoffman.
And only a messiah is capable of doing such thing, so Albert Hoffman is a Messiah and we all should follow the LSD message for a better world.
