Louisiana passed a bill outlawing many entheogens. It started with Salvia, then the list grew bigger. Needless to say, they decided to include Amanita Muscaria.

Here is what Don wrote to the Governor:

Hi everyone
This is the email I sent to the Governor of Louisiana.
Have a great day.

Dear Governor

I am very troubled by the recent passage of HLS 05RS-52 by the
Louisiana State Legislature and signed by you, criminalizing the
possession of Amanita muscaria. This Bill clearly violates the
separation of Church and State clause in the first Amendment of the
Bill of Rights. I cannot believe that the members of the Louisiana
State Legislature would knowingly vote for a Bill that would be a
violation of the First Amendment Right of Religious Freedom of the
citizens of Louisiana.
Only the Legislature and the Governor's lack of critical information
could explain this horrible mistake, had this information been
presented to the Legislature before the vote, I am sure that Amanita
muscaria could not, have been included.
The common forest mushroom Amanita muscaria is one of the worlds
oldest religious Sacraments. Over the thousands of years of it's
religious use it has received hundreds of names. It is the "Soma" of
the Vedas, the "Ambrosia" and "Nectar" of Greek Mythology, and more
familiar to us as the Biblical "Fruit of the Tree of Life', and the
"Eucharist" of Christianity. Many Christian sects, ancient and modern,
believe that Amanita muscaria is the "Christ", also known as, the
"living God", the "Living bread', the "bread from Heaven", a "living
stone", the "Fruit of the Tree of Life", the "Lamb of God", the
"fountain of the waters of Life" etc. As the "Son of God" the Amanita
muscaria mushroom is literally the Sacramental Flesh and Blood of an
Immortal Living God. Whose virgin birth, turning water to wine,
healing the sick, and it's physical resurrection in three days
accurately describes the Amanita muscaria mushrooms life cycle and
their religious use. The physical resurrection of Amanita muscaria
after being kept dry for years and the ability to then live and grow
in a simple terra cotta cup is the secret of the Holy Grail. Many
modern Pagans and Wicca also believe Amanita muscaria is an ancient
Sacrament handed down for countless generations. While many followers
of Hermetic beliefs also revere Amanita muscaria as the Divine Healing
God Hermes, a simple fact those who sit in seats of power in Masonic
Temples should always remember.
"The Sacred Secret: The Return of the Christ" Library of Congress #
2001118188 was published in 2001; it contains my public declaration
that Amanita muscaria is my religious Sacrament. I founded the
Ambrosia Society in 2003, to serve the ancient Amanita muscaria
Sacrament to all who wish to taste the honey sweet knowledge of Divinity.
I have presented this information to you to increase your knowledge
and to remove any possible excuse based on ignorance. Do not take my
word for this, as a few hours of Internet research will show the
overwhelming amount of information on the Sacramental use of Amanita
muscaria. Talk privately with Professors of Comparative Religion at
any Roman Catholic college, as many of them know the ancient secret of
the Sacrament, a secret they will not divulge publicly.
The Government of Louisiana has no right to determine which religious
beliefs it considers valid. In fact, the First Amendment to the Bill
of Rights specifically prohibits the Government of Louisiana from
making any decisions concerning the religious beliefs of its citizens.
Thus, the State of Louisiana has no jurisdiction or legal authority to
interfere in any way with the people's religious use of Amanita muscaria.
As the Chief Executive Officer of the State of Louisiana, you have a
sworn legal duty to protect your citizens from the enforcement of
unconstitutional statutes. As Governor, you also have the power to
require the State Legislature to rewrite this Statute excluding
Amanita muscaria from any unconstitutional governmental interference.
Honestly Governor; do you want your historical legacy to be the
renewed persecution of Christians? The renewed persecution of Pagans
and Wicca's? The renewed persecution of Hermeticists and Alchemists?
Do you really wish to be numbered with the Roman Emperors who used the
legal power of the state, to kill, torture and imprison thousands of
innocent people, for the "crime" of using the ancient Sacrament?

Sincerely
Donald E. Teeter
