This idea begs the question is is possible a foreign substance could actually improve some functions of the Brain, and if this is possible could it be that in our civilized world we are being exposed to substances that are driving our own adaptation to a civilized social existence. Could mind altering substances have contributed to our rise to being what we are? MJ was one of the first psychological substances used by humans possibly predated only by mushrooms found in the dung piles of our domesticated animals. If not for "mind expanding chemicals" could it be we would still be roaming bands of hunter gatherers?
