Of course a few leaked through the cracks and become footnotes in human history (such as the ancient Chinese opuim use). Each person is either on society's side or drugs' (possibly even pre-determined). However, each side has its flaws. Too many drugers go astray and abuse drugs "to get fucked up". This is why society always prevails of drugs unless it is ovrcome.

There was sooo much more but I forgot it. Shit.
Oh well, it's really far-fetched and just something cool to think about.
I'm not sure 300 years ago qualifies as ancient.
