that explains it

This guy is convinced that the food described as "manna" in the Bible was probably a type of psychedelic mushroom. "If manna is indeed the psilocybin mushroom," he concludes, "then this means that the Koran, Bible, and Torah were all inspired by psychedelically induced visions." Hmm. The following is from the Book of Exodus:
Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will vain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law or no (16:4). And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground (16: 14). And when the children of Israel saw if, they said one to another It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat.
