LSD can catalyze intense spiritual experiences and is thus considered an entheogen. Some users have reported out of body experiences. LSD is also capable of occasioning mystical experiences and ego dissolution, albeit less frequently than compounds such as psilocybin. In 1966, Timothy Leary established the League for Spiritual Discovery with LSD as its sacrament. Stanislav Grof has written that religious and mystical experiences observed during LSD sessions appear to be phenomenologically indistinguishable from similar descriptions in the sacred scriptures of the great religions of the world and the texts of ancient civilizations.

In the 1960s, LSD and other psychedelics were adopted by and became synonymous with, the counterculture movement due to their perceived ability to expand consciousness. Owsley Stanley, the most important black market LSD manufacturer distributed LSD at a standard concentration of 270 μg.

-'''[[Jesus Christ]]''', also referred to as '''Jesus of Nazareth''' or '''Jesus Christ''', was a first-century Jewish preacher and religious leader. He is the central figure of [[Christianity]], the world's largest religion. Most Christians believe he is the incarnation of God the Son and the awaited messiah (the Christ), prophesied in the Hebrew [[Bible]].

-Jesus is also revered in other religions. In [[Islam]], Jesus (often referred to by his Quranic name ʿĪsā) is considered the penultimate [[prophet]] of God and the messiah. Muslims believe Jesus was born of a virgin, but was neither God nor a son of God. The Quran states that Jesus never claimed to be divine. Most Muslims do not believe that he was killed or crucified, but that God raised him into Heaven while he was still alive. In contrast, [[Judaism]] rejects the belief that Jesus was the awaited messiah, arguing that he did not fulfill messianic prophecies, and was neither divine nor resurrected.
