FSM Appearance @ Wickerman Burn

Published by Bobby Henderson June 13th, 2008 in sightings and General FSM news.

I thought I would pass along some images from a recent Burn event I went to called Wickerman Burn in Artemas, PA. You know they say if you build it they will come and yes FSM did make an appearance and watched over my camp for 4 days touching everyone with His noodley appendage.

Another note:

FSM really seemed to like camping and didnt mind flying around the tent. Just felt in is own element with all the beer and stripper poles available. So many were touched by Him and He was pleased. This is one of the many extensions of the Burning Man idea that happen all over the country and it is all about radical inclusion, free expression of the self and generosity.

A few thought He should fly around the wickerman before it was set on fire…but FSM was just too busy touching many. Jesus, actually, did make an appearance in the Sound Town area but kind of incognito as he was pretty decked out in hippie wear and groovin to the tunes. He and FSM played poker well into the night several times over the weekend. They discussed having the beer volcano there for next year for sure.

That is amazing - I am glad to see that He survived the event intact and unburned.

   What the heck is a Burn event? Are you burning leaves? wood? trees? brush? marijuana? what?

   They build a man out of wicker and set him on fire in celebration of summer. At least that’s what I think it is..

   So, this is a rip off of Burning Man?

   How is this event different from “Burnng Man” or is it the same?

    That’s pretty sweet. I wish I could build giant statues of people and then light them on fire.

    Weird! I guess this is the next evolution up from burning crosses.

    Aesthetically speaking, that depiction of the FSM hanging from the roof of the tent would make renaissance artists cry in shame.

    The Wicker (or Wicca) man predates the cosmic Jewish zombie by a few millennia. Funnily enough, he gets burnt some time in spring according to a timetable that involves full moons, a bit like Easter in fact (cf winter solstice and xmas).

    How clever of the FSM to plant such an idea on the ancient Druids, so that the zombiphiles would then nick it and claim it as their own. I guess FSM doesn’t touch the burning Wicker man with his noodly appendage at all. That’s why he’s so tall.

    RAmen!

    Which is probably a ripoff of Zozobra, http://www.zozobra.com/

    So you’re saying that this is a rip off of burning man which is a rip off of ancient druidic rite which is ripped off from His noodlyness as the idea was supposed to be a way for the faithful to stay warm?
    May you be anointed with the Holy Red Sauce and forgiven for your doubtfulness.

    I saw the oriiginal Wickerman on The Movie Channel this weekend. What a great picture, and it had a very happy ending in which the twin forces of Xtain Church and State were burned inside the wickerman in the person of the Chriisty Police officer played by Edward Woodward. It was marvelous, at the end you had Christopher Lee, Dianne Cilento and Britt Eckland all singing “Summer is a Cumin In” as the Christian, a goat, a calf, a couple of chickens and some ducks burned as an offering to the old gods. Great Stuff.
