Was Moses under the influence of D.M.T?

Was Moses under the influence of D.M.T? Was his experience nothing but Hallucination? Is the testaments just figment of such delirium delivered by a junkie?

A research suggests and I quote:

It’s not only possible, but plausible that Moses’ legendary encounter with the ever burning bush, his conversation with Yahweh, and the bestowing of the Torah could have happened to him while he was under the influence of DMT, according to professor of cognitive psychology at the Hebrew University of JerusalemBenny Shanon.
Shanon, Benny. “Biblical Entheogens: A Speculative Hypothesis.” Volume I—Issue I March 2008 Pp. 51–74. Time and Mind: The Journal of Archaeology Consciousness and Culture, n.d. Web.




I read the article/ research paper, Biblical Entheogens: A Speculative Hypothesis by Benny Shanon and read the responses, comments from people both religious and anti--religious. Those who are believers and those who are non believers,  some were agnostic...  I was then prompted to write this blog in response.
