John Marco Allegro was a member of the international team of scholars working to discifer the Dead Sea Scrolls. What did Allegro discover in the those scrolls that ruined his career when he dared write a book about it?

---------------------------


Coffee, Cigarettes & Gnosis #31-- Being John Allegro-vich
Shamanism & drug use in Judaism, early Christianity & Gnosticism.

--Special Guests-- Jan Irvin & Andrew Rutajit, authors of 'Astrotheology & Shamanism in Christianity and Other Religions'.

Topics discussed:

--
--The reality that Judaism and Christianity, like most religions, were fertility, solar cults who utilized entheogens in a widespread manner. It just wasn't the priest who partook of the 'funny herbs', mon.
--Clues in the Bible, Gnostic texts and the Judeo/Christian tradition that point to the positive usage of entheogens and hallucinogens.
--How the war on drugs (which is also the war on the Goddess) began hundreds of years before Christ with a changing Jewish Priesthood, fanned out into the Christian worldview centuries later, and continues today with the same nefarious intentions.
--The spiritual and scientific effects of using certain entheogens such as mushroom, natural LSD and cannabis.
--Evidence of entheogens also in Hinduism and Buddhism.
--Redeeming John Allegro and his controversial discoveries of The Dead Sea Scrolls. (Jesus is a Mushroom...whadda ya gonna do?)

And much more!

Gnostics have always been accused of being 'out there'. But 'out there' often means an inward journey into the wellspring of gnosis.

  • Allegro was a HARVARD professor who put his so called "critiques" to shame, who were always brainwashed religious loonies anyway, with a bias. What would those loonies say about the Eadwine Psalter in the Paris museum ??? LMAO !! LOL :)

  • He was actually from Manchester and Oxford U.

  • A fine line is being walked here. An esoteric cult based on the sacred mushroom? Pointing people to a Mr. Allegro. Later, he'll be revealed as a reincarnation.

    Seeds of irony.

    Be mindful.

  • You should read the books. Lots of academic backing coming out these days.

  • The sad part is that people just believe what they are told on blind faith without cheking in out for themselves. Thank You Gnostic Media for redeeming the work of this great man.

  • A great man indeed...thanks for listening! Spread this around. We have another Allegro video on our YouTube page

  • Does anyone know if Jon Allegro ever tried mushrooms? If he did then Im certain it would have absolutely solidified his own belief in his findings. Anyone who has tried them will know how the experience could be construed as commune with a 'higher' being.

  • @LETIFER25 I CANT WAIT TILL THAT DAY!!! my mind is such a fragile deceitful thing.

  • Ok, yeah, Harvard was on my mind because I have been reading a lot of Barry Fell stuff recently, you know the guy who pissed off so many about the Celtic voyages to North America. I knew Allegro went to a high level school, but it wasn't Harvard, it was Oxford, ok cool....

  • That fine line is only walked in your mind, as documents like the Eadwine Psalter prove beyond doubt that the medieval Catholic church had an esoteric view of Christ as a shroom child, this is found today in the Paris museum. NOT all Christians of course, but certain elites have always known this. Dude, do you not know why the Catholic fairy tale of Santa Claus REALLY wears a red and white suit, it is from the red and white amanita muscaria.... Mana from heaven was fungus of some sort..

  • seek the truth and the truth shall set u free

    seek within ;)
