LSD (continued from page 31) pie frequently see common things as strikingly beautiful, and look with fascination at ordinary objects for minutes at a time. But not all is beauty, and some users find them­ selves seeing terrible things which cause them horrible agonies. Another effect is that a person may think he has unusual clarity of mind. One member of a group taking the drug in Boston tore off his clothes and had to be restrained from attempting to phone the president of the United States and the premier of Russia to advise them to settle their differ­ ences by taking LSD. There is a place in San Francisco which is financed by money given by church members for missionary work, but the place bears no notice­ able resemblance to a mission. It is reported that during a performance held there one person removed all his clothes and danced nude for 60 sec­ onds. The director in charge said that in this dance the man was try­ ing to interpret an experience he had under the influence of LSD. While under the influence people may think they cannot be harmed. One man stepped in front of a speed­ ing car in the belief that it could not harm him. He was killed. Some people believe they are above the law. Others get suicidal desires. The effects start about a half hour after taking the drug and last ten hours or more. People who take it and drive are obviously a very great hazard on the highway. A person may become mentally de­ ranged permanently through a single use of the drug. Also after a single use, recurrence of mental derange­ ment may occur at a subsequent time without further use. No one knows what long-range effects there may be. People who experiment with LSD may find themselves in a hospital, an asylum, a prison, or may end up in the. morgue. Yet there are those who advocate the use of LSD as a means Of gaining deeper understand­ ing of the world and of one’s self. Paul wrote to Timothy about a time when people would be without natural affection. This no doubt is manifest in various ways, but how about the following as an example from the users of LSD? (Vocabu­ lary: “ take a trip” means to come under the influence of LSD; “ acid” means LSD.) “When my husband and I want to take a trip together, I just put a little acid in the kids’ orange juice in the morning and let them spend the day freaking out in the woods.” (To be continued)
