the happy clappy cult
While it is far from the focus of this bloggers "history" of FM, it is sad that Jeremy Spencer's choices in life gets such woeful treatment. It demeans him and the folks who also espouse those beliefs. Historicly there were many such gatherings of people who viewedf the world as really screrwed up place and they could only find sanity in a more predictable loving enviornment. That it involves some incarnation of "he who has no name" makes people of this present generation evoke images of Jim Jones and you name the "WACO" of the month.
It is the least we can do as "fans" to give Jeremy Spencer's choices some street cred as a valid life choice. Who among us are destined to become Rock Stars and nothing else? At least he isn't a Parrot Head
