Dear Brothers of the tradition!

Currently stands the diabolical celebration of the BURNING MAN. It is a week-long event that occurs in the Black Rock Desert. It consists of a large and boisterous party of tens of thousands around a thirty-three feet high wooden statue that is supposed to represents a scape-goat for all the sins committed during the previous year. The statue is burned at the end of the party.

The Burning Man is no more than a cult of Baal, disguised as a party. Every year tens of thousands of the attendees lose their soul in the course of the final night. It is our Christian duty to warn the innocents. This is what I suggest:

A group of brothers-in-the-faith could stand at the entrance-gate with a large banner into which is written UBI NON EST REDEMPTIO! (here is no redemption!). The banner may be adorned with frightening images of hell.

All is needed are a few cars (no need for 4X4), a reserve of fresh water and handfuls of rosaries. The volunteers will rally, and perhaps some innocents who have been warned might join us in our prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary. There is no need for a protest permit, because the Black Rock Desert is federal land.

Protest in the likes are regurlarly done without permit in San Francisco by the MEN OF SAINT JOSEPH. The "protest" is merely showing a presence from heaven.

The protest may be organized to-day in a spontaneous manner, because the actual burning of the BM will occur Saturday night which is to-morrow. I remind that this year's BM is during Full Moon. This means that the demons will be particularly virulent, and so we must intervene in order to spoil the devil's work. The site is about two hours drive from Reno, NV. Reno has an international airport. Reno is only a few hours drive from the Bay Area.

Sante Joseph, terror dæmonum, ora pro nobis.

Not a bad idea.

I would recommend bringing some items of preparedness, such as first aid,
cell phones (if there's even reception there! -- if not, then CB radio would be
advised) extra food and lots of water, about 5 gallons per person, with small
canteens or bottles. Have some expendable blankets (and duct tape!!) to wrap
the water jugs so you can keep them cool, otherwise a large cooler would be
good, with some ice in it (ice is pretty cheap).

A video camera may prove indispensable. A good crucifix and holy water, too.

A little precaution goes a long way, if you know what I mean. You are dealing
with demonic spirits, and the people going there are largely bent on having the
time of their life, once a year. They look forward to this event ALL YEAR LONG.
No kidding. They bring their motorcycles and kegs of beer and party food. It's
serious business. Lots of marijuana and other illegal drugs, like meth.

So they are often under the influence to some degree before they even get
there. When they see your banner and stuff, they might not really even know
what that is, but the devil could be rather active, and get under their skin, so
to speak. I would recommend SMILING all the time. A smile goes a long way.
If you look too serious, they might interpret that as being hostile, and then
who knows what can happen next??

I'd recommend being armed as well, no reason to let them murder you, of course let us hope things don't come to that, but if they do...........

Do a quick look-around the Internet and see: the Burning Man event held once
a year in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada is not just an isolated one-week
project. There are associates all over the world. There are other organizations
and other "projects" that are somehow tied to this desert bonfire party.

They are tied together by ideology, but what seems superficially as humanitarian,
environmental, ecological, quasi-peace movements. Here is an example:

BWB's, Chris Espeset, noticed that there were a lot of homeless teenagers sleeping on the cold streets of Santa Fe, New Mexico and decided to do something about it. Learn how you can support this project below.

Santa Fe Sleeping Bag Project

This winter approximately two hundred youth found themselves outside in the cold in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Without a warm nights sleep it's hard to function the following day, but some of these youth have kept themselves in school despite the odds. A warm bag can and will make a huge difference, and Chris is leading an initiative to put warm sleeping bags into the hands of these homeless teen.

You can make a tax-deductible donation by using the donation link below or

by writing a check made payable to Burners Without Borders. Please

indicate "Santa Fe Sleeping Bag Project" in the memo field on your check.

Donations by check should be sent to:

Burners Without Borders

You can also help support this project by donating a new or gently used

sleeping bag. Bags can be left or sent to the address above. Chris will be

posting updates as the donations come in and the sleeping bags are

distributed.

Burners Without Borders ("BWB") is an international association of volunteers (?)
who set up, promote, organize and conduct various "projects" to help youth,
poor, and underprivileged people to have various conveniences, activities and
social needs aided, such as schools and community centers. There have been
various projects in Haiti, New Mexico, Ecuador, Detroit MI, Beijing China,
Johannesburg South Africa, Mombassa Kenya, Seattle WA, and Nairobi, among
others.

There are other organizations related to the Burning Man phenomenon.

See a page from the Burning Man Art Theme 2012

What I find curious is that nowhere do I see any mention of a "religious" aspect
of these projects and events. I am reminded of the Freemasonic practice of
low-level ceremonies that are ostensibly traditional rituals with no overt
objective beyond the fact that "this is the way it's been done for centuries" kind
of thing. But as one moves up higher into the top degrees of the brotherhood,
one finds out that all the rituals are actually low-level ceremonies based on
demon worship and mockery of the Catholic Faith. But the Freemasons at the
lowest levels are told that it's all humanitarian and philanthropic.

Philanthropy and humanitarianism is also the running theme of Burning Man.
Also, disorder mixed with order, or freedom under structure is a theme.
At the Burning Man event, revelers gradually work up to a frenzy when the
"burning" takes place, and after everyone leaves, a cleanup crew sweeps the
area to leave no trace of it having occurred. Very "ecologically responsible."

Example:

Hello from Pisco!

To start, I’d introduce myself as a long-time Burner with a mere 3 days with Pisco Sin Fronteras (PSF), so this is coming from a curmudgeonly old it-was-better-last-year Burner who is a wide-eyed gobsmacked Pisco virgin with a fresh optimistic view.

The first thing I’d say is that Burning Man was actually good preparation for Peru and PSF. I’ve only been in the country for a week now, but the friendly cacophony reminds me of life during Burning Man. Take sleeping: On the playa, you overhear drunken neighbours and roaming art cars blasting Johnny Cash. Here it’s three-wheeled “tuck-tuck” taxis, dogs barking, and the Peruvian music blasting at 6 a.m. from the Peruvian guy down the street, but somehow the balance of order and chaos feels just right.
