1st of all Natives don't use drugs in religion. They use medicine that the government thinks is a drug and they only use it in ceremony.
2nd of all this is a racist question
And to respond to a users comment. Good luck trying to be Rhasta because as far as I know they don't accept outsiders.
Rightly so.
Oh and to answer your question. No religion is going to let someone join who just wants to use drugs. That is why it is called a religion and not a drug using cult.

It is. There are several religions that have a history of mind altering substances being aprt of their worship, but only the Native Americans (and only some of them, and only on tribal land) can actually use it. Yet a further example of why ALL things religious should be outside the authority of anyone that is NOT a part of that religion.

Let me tell you something, the only drug that's legal is called 'The Holy Ghost' but if you want that you have to accept Jesus and live your life completely devoted to him, and you can't be asking questions like that.

no, there are loads of religions especially in south America that use sacred plants in ceremony. They are usually referred to as "entheogens" which means generating God within, lots of people especially governments, police and ignorant people confuse them with drugs or psychedelics. When used in ceremony they become a sacrament. They are not so popular here because of our governments war on plants.

....there is a huge difference between certain things used only on certain occasion by some tribes and actual drug abuse by idiots... Even tobacco use used to have it's purpose that was not an addiction and daily habit...
