The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross by John Marco Allegro

3.25

This was definitely one of the dryer books I've tackled in recent memory but well worth the investment. A classic I'm told, this book dives deep into the correlation between ancient religions and their texts and the sacred mushroom that this book claims is the basis for a lot of the Bible. A compelling and eye opening read, I was overwhelmed with the ancient language connections and the coincidences that just kept piling up. I will be taking more steps to research this topic for sure.
