The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross - John M. Allegro
A book arguing that Christianity was a front for an outlawed ancient Sumerian fertility cult, Jesus didn’t exist and was in fact a proxy for the psychedelic mushroom, amanita muscaria. From reading it there is defo something there, but he overstates his case and stretches some of his conclusions which undermines the whole endeavour. His writing style doesn’t help much either.
Two and a half terrifying acid orgies out of five.
