SWIMfriend: I don't mind the snarky outlook and thanks for the welcome!

PhOG: I think we'll have to agree to disagree. It would take me far too long to reply to your post seriously, but I don't want you to think I am blowing you off. I think you brought up good points, but I don't think either of us can, nor wants to convince the other of our view. Thanks for the sermon!

Toadfreak1: I could not agree more with what you said about feeling a stigma from both following a christian faith and using entheogens. I feel somewhat distant from both groups, and you seem to be the first person I am aware of to actually understand that; so thank you!

Ritalin: I totally agree!

I must say that I have enjoyed all of your comments and had a great time discussing these matters with you all. I have nothing but love for you, truly. But I must ask that we change the subject to a more immediate concern of mine. I need your advice. I still have not tried the DMT I have, as I am waiting for the right time and circumstances, but I need to know what you all think about using a freebase pipe vs. a vapor genie, or something else. I purchased a freebase pipe, but I read somewhere that it is not that good, and you need to use a torch lighter. I want to do it right the first time, so that I don't get a misguided view of the potential of DMT, so I'm wondering if anyone has advice for me in this situation. Would a bic and a freebase pipe send me off, or are other utensils better suited for the task?
