Psychs for me didn't change or reinforce my religious beliefs but only offered the physical pleasures/journeys which was an experience to say the least.
I see psychs and all drugs as mind altering substances. In my experience illigeal stubstances(drugs) 99% of the time make one set or determined on an idea, theory, or ambitious on a particular task or goal(Oh how many times I've been there, countless

) I might be just a bit lazy haha,
religious thoughts in this case in which i believe that after the person sobers his/her same feelings as to what they felt and belived are numbed. They still remember what they were thinking/thought at the time but the strong feelings are dulled given time.
Sorry if sounds cynikal, what happens mostly given time after i sober.

why would i just believe in him? I don't even KNOW he was who he said he was so why would i blindly believe in a guy who operated over 1000's of years ago? no seriously WHY??.
I believe in the christian faith and I understand 100% your frustration towards the belief, but I dont believe anyone had a gun to your head for conversion. I realise when you hear of heaven and more so of Hell, unless someone hasnt had a personal experience such as a visitation or extremely vivid dream how is the unbeliever to know??I do get a little upset/confused about it,
weather or not people have that divine knowlege of God/Jesus I dont know, but its about the faith. Once in your heart you feel it is a true faith it is then you will start to develop a relationship with him. We believe the devil, Satan is out there. His strongest point is twisting the truth so you get off the tracks of faith, even if slightly, when you think conclusive doubts in regards to the faith hes onto the next person, the devil and demons are not omnipresent like God is said to be.
Today more than ever you see books webpages saying that Jesus never existed?, Jesus didnt walk on water he walked on ice? and many other accusations..
What about Buddha, Hindu, Islamic, you never hear about skeptics of the other religions nor use any of their there prophetts names as derogetry slander.
2 Pet 2:1 [NIV] But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
To help your faith, this by no means prove to you who Jesus is, thats everyones spiritual journey if they choose to accept, did you know that-
- Biblical artifacts have been found.
- pieces of the cross,
When I see someone that lashes out at a comment of a believer of christ I can only assume that within their heart they have if not small, a shimmer of belief that the scriptures speak truth,
You dont have to read the bible and go to church to be a Crst.
