Trinity now says he is "off to the jungle!" and that "in the future we will have a Shipibo from Peru to come serve the medicine at our Church". Sounds like he is going shopping, for a human being to exploit, to bring to USA, to exploit more people.

Tipis are not used in the parts of the world where the true custodians of ayahuasca ritual live. The tipi was used by some of the tribes in North America -- ayahuasca is not indigenous to North America, and neither are its rituals. This is cultural illiteracy at its most crass. Here is a comparison. In Roman Catholicism, proper custody of the holy sacrament is a serious matter. Bre
