Definition(s)

  • Throughout history, religion and the use of drugs have occasionally intersected. Since before the time of Sybil in ancient Rome and the Oracle at Delphi in ancient Greece, where the priestesses are thought to have inhaled gasses to induce prophetic trances, drugs or hallucinogenic substances have been used in religious rites.
