Name a religion that requires use of mind altering substances.
I believe there are some Native American groups that utilize peyote as part of their ceremonies. I recall, years ago, reading a series of books by Carlos Castarneda about the "Yaqui" way of knowledge. Indeed, looking just now on Amazon I see that the first book is called "The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge". Nevertheless, I believe it is against Federal law for them to engage in such practice.
I'd personally rather smoke a marijuana blunt with my fellow faithful than share a glass of wine.
BOTH are mind altering substances and many Christians certainly LOVE their booze.
Booze is legal and regulated, though.
