That's how I read it. Pretty plain when you cut out all of the quote except 2 sentances and then state you disagree with both those statements.

As for the acting like a wild animal, that statement is subjective.
As for acting like a person is having seizures, for all we know that could be a result of our humanity trying to give our all in praise and worship to GOD. When a 5 yr old child gives his Daddy a finger painting, it will be ugly and something that can only be truly appreciated by that child's Father.
Praise and worship to GOD can appear so unattractive, but our Father appreciates it. He is seeking those who will worship Him in spirit and sincerity.

It is an assumption that in Acts people "acted drunk". There were some who said that those who spoke in tongues were drunk. That's all we know. They spoke in tongues and some accused them of being drunk. There is no record of staggering, stumbling, falling over, falling out, etc. I don't believe that the Spirit causes you to act like a drunk person. If so, why no "barfing in the spirit"? Or "fist fights in the spirit"? Or why aren't there some spirit-filled DUIs? We must be careful not to leaps in logic in order to prove something is scriptural.

cause there is a difference in new wine of the Spirit and some fermented drink ofcourse you should know this.
I believe these people were jumping running and dancing shouting and praising. many of which people on alcohol do minus the praising part.
so since it isnt a physical drink there would be no need of such side effects as you described. at the same time does such acts by people embarrase you? Does it make you feel like they are demon possesed?
Man the jews threw big parties to celebrate God and alcohol was included in such things, God just changed the beverage. How does anyone of these effect your salvation or relationship with God? Are they not praising God for it.
The bible does declare that all good things are from God, so if they personaly feel that it is good and they believe it is Good then wouldnt one say it is a gift from God above? Do they not praise God for it?

Then you shouldn't have disagreed.
