The Burning Man festival has come and gone. Roughly 40,000 people came and gathered in a desert to experience a 6 day celebration of life, existence and being man. As they ask questions about our meaning and purpose as man, what answers do they give? As they celebrate man is our initial reaction as Christians to jump to...
