    As someone who grew up going to churches that did this stuff: LOLOLOL

    These people are nuts. And it’s this weird collective “we kind of know this is all bullshit right” but no one wants to actually question it so they go with it. Then I think people feel left out and start doing it themselves. But then there are the fucking actual lunatics who believe their own bullshit that think they are speaking the words of God or the holy Spirit.

    They’ll even tell stories like “one time there was a Syrian lady at church and x started speaking in tongues and that Syrian lady said it was her language!!!” Which is obviously bullshit. And obviously a lie.

    It’s wiiiiild.

    It’s kind of terrifying to think that if a few things went differently maybe I’d be going to a church like that on Sundays.
