A Very Good Question?

That is a very good question. Like all things these days, Wikapedia has its own special answer. So check it out below.

But I am sure that here at BCTS we all want to SHAKE IT all about, and in turning ourselves about, OH Well, I think you get it.

On the Unfpeakable Origins of Ye Hokey Pokey, A Treatife

The hokey pokey began as a part of Satanic rituals, in which---before summoning a dark spirit---the participants all did an arcane dance together to create a "circle of containment" of the malicious entity they were summoning, so they could control it at least to the extent of not being immediately destroyed by it. Although the original name was "thee hocus pocus", words that survive today in magic acts & cartoons about witches. It's not a coincidence that the weird old neighbors in Roman Polanski's ROSEMARY'S BABY break into this song and dance. What you might think on a first viewing is just them being odd and creepy is actually a foreshadowing of darker things to come. The brief inclusion of this evil ritual in Polanski's film may well have something to do with the gruesome tragedy that befell his family less than a year later- It is that powerful and demonic!

YOU SHOULD NOT DO THE HOKEY POKEY EVER, FOR ANY REASON!!!
LEST YOUR VERY SOUL BE PUT AT RISK!!!
AND THAT IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT.

Hokey Pokey!

I have checked this with my two younger brothers (all in our 70's) The 'Hokey Pokey'
was a communal dance which American troops brought to Australia during WW2 and was an
instant success as everyone could join in ,men ,women and children and so simple even
the intellectually handicapped could do it.
As people danced they sang and put the appropriate limb in towards the centre,singing:

" You put your right hand in,you put you right hand out,you put your right hand in and you
shake it all about,you do the Hokey Pokey and you shake it all around ,
And that is what it's all about".

All quite silly but it got everyone laughing and that beats crying anytime,so stop wondering.
