while psychedelics are useful for spiritual development part of the experience SHOULD be enjoyment and folks who want to should absolutely be able to use them for the novelty of "hehe wall go melt" (and in fact focusing on the spiritual potential of psychedelics and not allowing yourself to have fun can take away from a lot of really high quality spiritual development! let yourself enjoy things)

mdma is probably more dangerous than regular users realize

weed is literally safer and more effective than tylenol, which we give to children (not advocating giving weed to kids just putting its schedule 1 classification into context)

and marijuana is as much a gateway drug into heroin (or really anything except a fondness for cats and an unhealthy amount of cheetos) as the Controlled Substances Act of 1972 was a gateway piece of legislation into good drug policy; i.e. not a damn bit.
