i find the notion that we are descended from ant-people who came out of the urine of the sky god when he got out of his canoe at the seventh waterfall to relieve himself more palpable than that we are derivatives of the Big Bang-- a moment when the whole universe sprang from nothing for no reason at all.

I know not who the late Terence McKenna is, but I think I am somewhat of his party, though allowing that Science has its cogent myths as well. I like your blog.
thanks rama, Margie and yves.
yves,
terence mckenna was a writer and philosopher who studied shamanism and ethnopharmacology. he basically wanted to know the details behind spiritual transformation. he would travel into all the jungles in search of plants that he'd later study in his home in san fransisco. he also used the i ching and the mayan calendar to progress the theory of timewave zero which is interesting (where time fluctuates in waves).
he also founded an organization that tries to save many species of plants from the jungles that are being deforested and therefore, destroyed.
