Most are sincere in their worship but for the most part it is a learned response.

See bold above.

I didn't judge anyone. I believe most are sincere, but I also believe that all this running and jumping is taught and has nothing to do with a "move of God". What is called dancing in Pentecostal services has no relation to the dances in the OT.

Funny, you never see the running and jumping when the music is turned off and the congregation is singing Amazing Grace. It is contrived emotionalism.
