I disagree that those of us who consider them sacred have lost touch with anything. It certainly happens to people who abuse the tools, and this is common in the states with such a high drug use problem, but taken under the right circumstances and the right amount of understanding, it's an experience that firmly solidifies one's place in the world.
I might've just outed myself as the forum loony toon with this post, but so be it.

I don't mean that people are losing their minds, just that drugs can make people release themselves from certain parts of life, and reach out for other parts of life. Lots of things in life are a tradeoff, and maybe mental awareness is one of those things. When you choose to turn your mental lens toward one subject, the others shift out of view. And when you focus on one thing, everything else becomes a fuzzy blur.
For example?
