"Church of Burn is a portal into a glorious world we’re not supposed to see. Where money’s power is revoked, reclaimed and reassigned. A sacrificial rite that rewrites our failing modern world. For once one has burnt money, what else is possible?"

"The transmutation of paper money into fire is perhaps the last true pure artistic act available to us in the death-throes of late-stage Capitalism. No one who enters Church of the Burn emerges unchanged."

"When the Ritual began I could feel its power as a shift in the density of the air, as a modulation of sound, as a quelling and a quickening of my heart. I could feel something build and swell at the centre of the group. This was deadly serious."

"In a world dedicated to the cold and joyless worship of money, the Church of Burn brings the elemental force of fire to warm things up, light new possibilities in your imagination, and pay true respect to the combustible spirit of cash"

"I do get a feeling of release when I burn a note. So maybe it is a form of personal growth. I'm freeing myself a bit from one of society's control mechanisms. Whatever, the act came first, attempts to rationalise it followed later"

"Come to Church of Burn and we'll blow your mind. And even if you don't think you want to burn money by the end of what we do, you will. And you will have an amazing experience doing something you've never done before and you will remember the moment for the rest of your life."
