From Eden to Eleusis: The Stoned Ape Theory in Light of New Evidence

“Even as the nineteenth century had to come to grips with the notion of human descent from apes, we must now come to terms with the fact that those apes were stoned apes.” -Terence McKenna, Food of the Gods: The Search for the Original Tree of Knowledge A deep dive into Terence McKenna's Stoned Ape Theory. Encompassing Evolution, Neuroscience, Pharmacology, Anthropology, Mycology, Ancient History, Philology, and Theology - I knew there's no way this was gonna be a short video. I first began the rough draft for the script back in January and over the course of the summer listened to pretty much every McKenna lecture I could find. Admittedly personal circumstances also put a hold on production, but here it is - my magnum opus. And what better way to return from an 8 month hiatus than publishing my longest video to date?
