I just think the written out fake tongues, "sha ma hah" or whatever it was at the beginning, is indicative of the flippant attitude of it all. Like I've said, I'm not a tongue-talker but that's SO disrespectful and reminds me of the Corinthian church and what they were doing with communion. I don't think it's decent and I don't think it's in order.
I also understand I'm touching a pentecostal sacred cow here so I don't expect to get a standing ovation for this.

Notof...all I'm saying is that it is not always a situation where music strategically gets people worked up. Some churches are worshipping churches and the people will worship no matter what. That being said, however, the music is a very important part of the worship and that is Biblical as well.
I'm just saying that you cannot use your experiences to say that wherever and whenever you see people worshipping like this, it is not spiritual and music manufactured it. I can't speak for every church, but I do know many churches where this is not the case.
I'm not trying to speak for all of Pentecost or about your old church.
