WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/ingersoll-robert-green/76349/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>Robert Ingersoll</b></a></p><blockquote>A trial for heresy means that the spirit of persecution still lingers in the church; that it still denies the right of private judgment; that it still thinks more of creed than truth, and that it is still determined to prevent the intellectual growth of man. It means that churches are shambles in which are bought and sold the souls of men. It means that the church is still guilty of the barbarity of opposing thought with force. It means that if it had the power, the mental horizon would be bounded by a creed; that it would bring again the whips and chains and dungeon keys, the rack and fagot of the past.</blockquote><p><b>Robert Green Ingersoll</b> (1833-1899) American lawyer, agnostic, orator<br>Lecture (1874-05-03), “Heretics and Heresies,” Free Religious Society, Kingsbury Hall, Chicago</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/ingersoll-robert-green/76349/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">wist.info/ingersoll-robert-gre…</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=ingersoll" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ingersoll</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=churchandstate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>churchandstate</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=creed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>creed</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=freedomofthought" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freedomofthought</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=heresy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>heresy</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=religiousintolerance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>religiousintolerance</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=religiouspersecution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>religiouspersecution</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=theocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>theocracy</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=torture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>torture</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=trial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trial</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History Today in Labor History April 19, 1943: Albert Hoffman, inventor of LSD, tested his first dose and went for a bike ride. This day is now celebrated as Bicycle Day. “... Little by little I could begin to enjoy the unprecedented colors and plays of shapes that persisted behind my closed eyes. Kaleidoscopic, fantastic images surged in on me, alternating, variegated, opening and then closing themselves in circles and spirals, exploding in colored fountains, rearranging and hybridizing themselves in constant flux ...” And from that date forward, working class people could finally afford to go on a trip. Hoffman later went on to isolate psilicyben, the active hallucinogenic ingredient in mushrooms, which he also enjoyed experimenting with.</p><p>Sandoz originally marketed the drug as Delysid and sold it in 100 microgram doses. From the late 1940s, through the early 1960s, the drug was legal and numerous psychologists and researchers began experimenting with it as a form of therapy. Many were willing participants in the CIA’s UKUltra mind control experiments, in which LSD was given to people, most of whom without their consent or knowledge. Cary Grant was a frequent and enthusiastic user. As early as the late 1940s, anthropologists Margaret Mead and Gregory Bateson became enthusiastic about its potential to unleash a new era of peace and expanded consciousness. The founder of Alcoholic Anonymous was also an early user and said that it was far more effective at treating alcoholism than any other treatment he knew of. Researcher John Lily, along with Gregory Bateson, began dosing dolphins in the early 1960s, in experiments connected with the U.S. military, in an attempt to learn to communicate with the animals and deploy them as weapons in the cold war. You can read more about Mead and Bateson’s role in promoting hallucinogens and in collaborating with the military and intelligence communities in Benjamin Breen’s book, Tripping on Utopia.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/alberthoffman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>alberthoffman</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lsd</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/drugs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>drugs</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hallucinogens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hallucinogens</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/psychedelics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>psychedelics</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bicycleday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bicycleday</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cia</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MKUltra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MKUltra</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mindcontrol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mindcontrol</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/brainwashing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brainwashing</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/consent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>consent</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/torture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>torture</span></a></p>
