These Mormons Have Found a New Faith -- in Magic Mushrooms
Mormons are leaving the church in record numbers. Some are turning to an apostate band of mushroom-loving spiritual explorers for solace.

The website and an article about a new "magic mushroom church" founded recently in the United States.
It is largely linked to a very expensive psychedelic retreat/vacation company and does not actually have any religious teachings, precepts or practices other than to claim magic mushrooms as sacrament, which are largely used via Lemon Tek.
It seems strongly motivated by capitalism and that the church itself isn't actually a real church but a way to declaring religious intent in relation to mushrooms as a legal disclaimer.
It is largely just people gathering and getting high together and calling it spiritual and perhaps it is, but it doesn't seem to have anything in common with religious and spiritual psychedelic traditions with practices. Rather it seems built around recreational use.
The Church (literally) seems to be built around the recreational use of mushrooms by wealthy white people (in Utah) and those promoting it offer no actual system of belief.
They let anyone join, just send them a name and an email.
Their major event is not even listed on it's own website as affiliated with the Church, and is it a 3 day festival that people buy tickets for. This is the closest thing they have to an actual standardized meeting.
The last two links are the major commercial operations linked to the Church.
