You've got a few of 'em in your neighborhood. I've attended a bunch of charismatic and Pentecostal services; they're amazing experiences. The energy in the room is a physical force in itself and it's difficult not to be effected by it.

I was taken to a Holy Roller Jesus Freak type of church when I was fifteen and remember it as one of the most disturbing events of my teen years.  I wasn’t told in advance what to expect and was freaked out when several hundred people began speaking in tongues simultaneously.  I was convinced I was in the middle of a group having a mass psychotic break with reality and wanted to escape because I was concerned for my safety.

Want to learn more about snake handling?  Let's ask Billy Ray Cyrus

Kind of like ravers meet raving lunatics.

I just want to learn the Xtian Jedi mind tricks to get girls naked.

I guess this is another reason that "Faith Based Marketing" is one of the biggest marketing pushes in recent years. If you can reach out to congregations, you know you have a bunch of sops who will believe anything.
