Brock came down and tried to take Prairie. Is that how it's done by the
chosen elect?

The HTML link leads to a 32 page long essay on the Luce's promotion of
LSD even as the drug became illegal.
In 1966, LSD was the focus of nine articles in Time, America's
highest-circulation magazine at that time, including one titled
"Mysticism in the Lab," which began:
St. Paul was converted while riding on the road to Damascus by
a sudden vision of the Risen Christ, who appeared to him in the
form of a blinding light that struck him to the ground. Teresa of
Avila, the 16th Century saint, had poetic visions of "pure water
running over crystal, the sun reflecting it and striking through
it."
Simone Weil, the lonely Jewish girl who turned into a Christian
mystic, tells how the recitation of lines by George Herbert, such
as, "Love bade me welcome, yet my soul drew back," acted on
her intuitive conscious like prayer. "Then it happened," she
recalled. "Christ himself came down, and he took me."
