The Forbidden Book Club EP02: ‘The Sacred Mushroom & The Cross’ by John M. Allegro
From Executive Producer Graham Hancock:
Written and Presented by David Thrussell
The Forbidden Book Club
Unearth the unexplained, the unknown and the unthinkable…
Scandalous, career-ending and out of print for almost 40 years, John M. Allegro’s ‘The Sacred Mushroom And The Cross’ might at first sound like the work of a fringe scribe or even madman. Allegro, however, was a widely respected scholar and one of the official team to first translate the Dead Sea Scrolls. The premise of the book ignited a firestorm upon original release in 1970: to wit, that the Christian bible was the coded lore of ancient middle eastern magic mushroom cults, who encrypted their beliefs, customs and rituals in the Gospels to protect it from hostile Roman authorities and preserve their knowledge at a time of tumult. Indeed, some have described Allegro’s thesis as reducing the Bible to little more than an ancient hallucinogenic ‘cookbook.’ What are we to make of Allegro’s assertions, what evidence did he produce and what can we learn from the controversy whether we choose to believe John M. Allegro or not…?
