Level: 1 CS Original | A question about the Cremation of Care. I have watched Alex Jones' video about the Cremation of Care at the Bohemian Grove for the Bohemian Club and I have read sites trying to debunk Alex Jones claiming that the Cremation of Care is a play that it is acting. Is the Cremation of Care just a play ? Cremation of Care The Cremation of Care is an annual theatrical production written, produced and performed by and for members of the Bohemian Club, and staged at the Bohemian Grove near Monte Rio, California at a small artificial lake amid a private old-growth grove of Redwood trees. The dramatic performance is presented on the first night of the annual encampment[1] as an allegorical banishing of worldly cares for the club members, and "to present symbolically the salvation of the trees by the club",[2] but the secretive nature of the Bohemians, and the political power of some of its members, has attracted notice from conspiracy theorists such as Alex Jones, who has identified the Cremation of Care as a focus of an 'abuse of power'. | |||||

Level: 1 CS Original | I posted a thread about this and they admit that it is a play what is the big deal than ? http://forum.prisonplanet.com/index.php?topic=157229.0 By Cwn_Annwn (Copenhagen, Denmark) This review is from: Bohemian Grove and Other Retreats: A Study in Ruling-Class Cohesiveness (Paperback) Bohemian Grove is best known because of Alex Jones sneaking in and filming their Cremation of Care "ritual". Jones has done some very good documentaries but that one was a bit hokey. I think he read too much into it as well as making some false claims. Like claiming the big wooden Owl on the grounds was suppossed to be a totem of the demon Molloch. Molloch was a bull, not an owl! The Cremation of Care seems more like a play than any kind of "Satanic" ritual. This book, which came out way back when Nixon was President doesn't read so much into it as Jones did. He does go into how into putting on plays these elites are. Hey maybe these world elites in their heart of hearts are nothing but a bunch of frustrated drama club fruits. Domhoff also writes about another elite club for world elites where their big thing was enacting their cowboy fantasies. Not every member was down for the program apparently. Tapes came out a few years back of Richard Nixon, who was a member of the Bohemian Grove saying, "It is the most faggy goddamned thing you could ever imagine". Ha ha! Overall this book really doesn't offer much except a description of the Cremation of Care "ritual", descriptions of the goings on at the grove, talk of a couple of other retreats/clubs and a huge member list which includes Presidents, Senators, heads of corporations, bankers and other super wealthy types. It is outdated considering it was published in the 1970s but it isn't as sensationalistic as the Jones documentary. http://www.amazon.com/Bohemian-Grove-Other-Retreats-Ruling-Class/dp/0061318809 | |||||
