The Stoned Ape theory is a prime example of a phenomenon I've noticed where frequent users of psilocybin begin attributing all sorts of miracles to mushrooms. Everything becomes explained by mushrooms. I've seen it happen in person and online. It's a bit bizarre.

It's almost as if they were ingesting a substance which altered their thinking...
Look, I seriously love shrooms. I stopped everything else, especially weed with all of its subtly negative effects which creep up over time, and do frequent mushroom trips and occasional light dose of alcohol. That said, I find it funny when people do a drug that alters their thinking and perceptions on such a deep level but draw a line at where they think those effects begin and end as if the brain/mind was ever that clearly compartmentalized.
