Approximately
70,000 people from all over the world have gathered for the annual Burning Man
festival, which is taking place in the Black Rock Desert. But crowds were
horrified when one reveller made a beeline for the giant wooden effigy and was
engulfed by the flames. He had to dodge a number of rangers and law enforcement
personnel in order to reach the fire, which stretches approximately 50 feet
into the air. It is believed the man died in the shocking incident,
although this has not yet been confirmed.
EMERGENCY SERVICES BRAVELY TRIED TO RESCUE A
FESTIVAL-GOER WHO RAN STRAIGHT INTO THE BURNING MAN DURING NEVADA’S FAMOUS ARTS
AND MUSIC FESTIVAL.
“And
if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life
maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall
be quenched: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.” Mark 9:43,44 (KJV)
EDITOR’S
NOTE: New Agers get mad when I call
Burning Man the world’s largest pagan festival, but guess what? It is. And like
all paganism, it celebrates the accomplishments of man outside of any
relationship with the God who created man, but with a twist. Burning Man is a festival
celebrating unregenerate man as said man burns in eternal flames of torment,
kinda like how the Bible says unsaved people wind up after they die rejecting
the salvation of Jesus Christ. I wonder what this man who threw himself into
the fire thought when, after he presumably died in the flames, he opened
his eyes in a burning Hell from which there is no escape? Get saved and avoid the smoking
section.

shocking incident, although this has not yet been confirmed. The
festival issued a statement through its website to
say that at ‘approximately 10.30pm Saturday evening, a male participant at the
annual Burning Man event in Northern Nevada broke through a safety perimeter
and into a fire. Black Rock City fire personnel rescued him from the fire.’ ‘The individual was treated on scene,
transported to the on-site medical facility and airlifted to a burn centre’. source
