Etnica — The Beast Man
'Beware the beast man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport, or lust, or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him, drive him back into his jungle lair. For he is the harbinger of death.'
From movie 'Planet of the Apes' (1968)
Etnica — Ritual Plants
There was mo evidence of toxic manifestation of these substances in these long-term users. We conducted pretty careful neuropsychological assessments on our ayahuasca subjects, and a light number of matched controls who had never taken ayahuasca, and we found that the ayahuasca subjects had, on certain parameter had significantly better neuropsychological function.
With eyes closed they often have well-formed images... often of thematic content.
