As someone who is avowedly NOT a Christian, I can't really comment on the theological merit of this post, but I just want to say that I'm pretty happy to see psychedelic interpretations of Christianity here on The Nexus. There's a lot of folks here who try and mush psychedelics and Buddhism or Hinduism together, and it's refreshing people taking a different tack.

I don't know if this adds to the discussion at all, but I've often felt that, while under the influence of psilocybin that "this is how Adam and Eve must have felt before the Fall," and that the highest points of ego death/Union must be what early mystics were describing when they speak of the reward of the Beatific Vision in Heaven (which has a lot more in common with Nirvana than modern, American interpretations of Heaven).
