Many of the pieces of literature considered by many to be "great" seem acid-trippy at times. Take the Bible, for instance.

The bible is not acid trippy it is just a very elaborate astological text. there is a difference. the translations however are kind of werid and could be considered acid trips.

Astrological text and ravings, not acid trip. There is a psychological difference.

I disagree, but let's not argue over religion, that will only bring bad things to this site.

I agree with the bad things, you are right, we should desist.
Cal, I respect your disagereement and deem you a worthy opponent.
So if King isn't a favourite of yours, who is?
