I appreciate both. Sagan was a popularizer of science, and Watts was a popularizer of Easter philosophy. Sagan had a appropriately skeptical outlook, and Watts had a mystic’s heart. They’ve both influenced me. I value both.
Dude, if I hadn’t been raised to fear the wrath of a Mormon god I’d be a medical-maryjane subscriber for sure. Just sayin’ that Watts is most trippy in this video… with a perpetual far-off gaze. Good stuff.

This was fun. It would have been funner had Watts rolled his reefers on camera as well. Honestly, I’m much more a fan of Sagan’s approach.

And though I’ve never partaken (honest), there’s nothing wrong with a little medicinal herbs now and then.
