And there's been a lot of groundbreaking research recently into the use of mind-altering substances to enhance the quality of people's lives. I think a recent one was related to the terminally ill.

Factually it's a true statement.
Actually, part of the statement is pure opinion:
Even if alcohol were healthy, just the fact that it is a mind-altering drug makes it wrong.
Mind-altering drugs are not inherently wrong. It is that person's opinion that they are.

I think it is terrible that there are any beer companies at all Nobody should drink alcohol. It is a toxin, it poisons cells, significantly raises the risk of breast cancer in women, and does lots more bad things. Even if alcohol were healthy, just the fact that it is a mind-altering drug makes it wrong.
replace alcohol / beer with religion and it all still makes sense. wakka wakka wakka....
Er, religion significantly raises the risk of breast cancer in women?
I also was not aware that you could drink religion, nor that religion was a mind-altering drug.
clearly it is.
What do you do? Roll up some pages of the Bible and smoke em? I'm not sure how it "clearly is" a mind-altering drug.

IIRC, they've found certain spots in the brain that seem to be the religion centers... thus, no religious exposure would mean no alteration, whilst activity in those regions would indicate that the mind was being altered by religion.
ROLL THAT UP IN YOUR BIBLE PAGE AND SMOKE IT!

LSD appeared to reduce anxiety and depression in people with advanced stage cancer (Grof etal. 1973) and to produce long-lasting analgesia in people with advanced-stage cancer(Kast and Collins 1964).
At least two-thirds of people with advanced stage cancer enrolled in psychotherapy using doses of 200 µg or more exhibited improved quality of life. (Grof et al. 1973; Kurland et al. 1973; Pahnke et al. 1969).

The key to the benign, therapeutic use of lsd was then, and is now, set and setting, ie, that the circumstances under which you take such a drug determine what kind of "trip" you will have.
But then, native cultures have known this all along, which is why they confine hallucinogens to structured, religious rituals.

This makes me want to take some LSD and go to mass. Think of how much fun that would be.

Seems rather speculative to me.
And also you can't even be sure if you can correctly recall something, yet you're attempting to pass it off as fact by saying that it "clearly is"?

The Cindybin Project
Warning:
This book contains some naughty words and references to S-E-X.
Viewer discretion is advised.
Introduction:
?I can tell you?re hurting?I see it in your face,? my friend Lori said as she listened to me attempt to relate some of my experiences on the Yahoo headline boards. Lori was unfamiliar with these message board forums, but she knew from our conversations over the past year or so that I had posted and become acquainted with a number of people through them. She knew about my Cindybin ID, she heard some of the funny stories, as well as some of the bad things that happened. Months ago, I even admitted to her how one woman made me so mad that ?I used the b-word.? Lori had laughed, knowing I never use any bad language in real life. And then as time went on, I told her how things had become worse, how I had started to ?lose it? and used even more curse words. I finally told her about how I left the boards completely in February 2006, after a huge spat with a woman I had considered to be a friend.
?If any of my real life friends saw some of the things I wrote on those boards, they would think I was a maniac,? I told Lori.
?No they wouldn?t,? she replied. ?They know you. They?d understand.?
I wasn?t so sure. In any case, I felt I needed to write down my side of the story, my Yahoo memoirs, so to speak. I told Lori that I wanted to put my thoughts in order after all that had happened, because I was so upset I had a hard time concentrating on much of anything. She thought that might be good for me to do.
And so, whether anybody reads it or not, here it is, the story from my viewpoint that needs to be told about the events that transpired since I arrived at Yahoo in 2004 and what led up to me leaving it in tears nearly two years later.
