Entheo Hour Is Psilocybin Therapy Too Expensive? Here's The MathIs psilocybin-assisted therapy actually "too expensive," or are we just comparing it to the wrong thing?If you're measuring a licensed, clinical container against a festival, gathering, or solo dose at home, the math will never add up.

We cover the second half of the paper to be presented at Sunstone Symposium which deconstructs entheogen use through Joseph Smith’s early years and into Mormonism. The amount Smith had practiced honing dose, set, and setting finally pays off during the Kirtland Temple dedication ceremony. Public entheogen use seems to drop off sharply after this ceremony, being forced underground for many understandable reasons. We conclude with discussing possible weak points in the theory, as well as limitations, and finish wi...
