Interesting stuff!

Theres early christian iconography revolving around mushrooms as well, so ive wondered if the "forbidden fruit" aka "fruit of knowledge" was originally a psilocybin mushroom.

Nobody calls mushrooms fruit

The head of a mushroom is a fruiting body. I know that is a huge distinction but could be confused pretty easily. Especially if there is some translation fun between.
