HIGH on GOD. The SHOCKING LINK between Stoned Greek witches, Christianity, early Civilization & Shrooms.


Best-selling Author, Brian C. Muraresku, (The Immortality Key) explores if Jesus might actually be the Greek God Dionysus.


He explains how ancient Greeks believed that experiencing your death “before you die” actually provides you the chance for immortality.


We go deep and learn about links between early Christianity and Ancient Greek mystical practices, including altered states as a way to be in touch with the spiritual realm, the true origins of Catholicism’s body and blood of Christ, and the pivotal role Greek witches played in shaping early Christianity.


Brian also breaks down: 
- How the wine used today in church differs from the psychedelic-infused wine of Ancient Greece 
- More than metaphor: What it actually means to ingest the body and blood of Christ
- Sorcery vs Scripture 
- Lay down and die: “Incubation” as a path to enlightenment
- The dangers of psychedelic use without prep work and appropriate processing
- Why he chooses not to use psychedelics himself


Join us as we explore these questions, backed by compelling historical evidence and expert insights that will challenge everything you thought you knew about religious history and Western Civilization as we understand it.

RESPONSE TO: She Met God & Saw the Future

EXCLUSIVE REACTIONS: Mayim, Jenna von Oy, and Christy Carlson Romano dive deep into the explosive QUIET ON SET documentary, from the heartbreaking abuse exposed by some of their peers, to their own firsthand accounts of the pressures they faced as child actors.

Mayim, Christy, and Jenna reflect on how the model for kids’ tv made child actors particularly vulnerable, the dangers of children working in the high pressure entertainment industry, the trauma-bonding nature watching the doc has had for their peer community, whether the system can truly be reformed, and ways to effectively pivot the conversation from sensationalistic gossip to promoting real change in the industry.

Christy reveals why she has currently chosen NOT to watch the documentary, breaks down her reservations about the exploitative nature of "trauma tourists," and explains more about the important advocacy work organizations like the Looking Ahead program (@alifeinthearts) are doing to connect child actors and their families with essential resources.

THEY ALSO DISCUSS:

- The role parents have to play, even if a studio tries to remove them

- The crucial need for female representation and trauma-informed care in the entertainment industry
