7. "the church, especially the Baptist church, allows for that expression" In response to In response to 0
cause i've felt the chills before. or the Jesus tingles. like i'd be sitting there and a song would be sung and i'd feel something on the inside. not sure what it was, but it would be something. and church kinda is an environment where if you want to act on what you feel on the inside....its welcome. if you wanna clap...you can clap. if you wanna stand and run...you can run. and if you wanna buck will you pass out in a heap on the floor, you can do that too. i think that sort of religious expression is a conduit.
but if felt those same tingles listening to secular music. i've been moved to tears by music and movies and art and people. i just don't think i felt them in an environment or felt it necessary to show those feelings on the inside. that's what i respect about the holy spirit or whatever and people who feel that spirit...they're not afraid to show it. no matter whether all the people who are obviously gonna come in here and hate, believe them or not. they'll be call fake and silly, but they'll still go ahead and worship in the way they see fit. --------------------------------------- it's true what they say...people are strange, when you're strangers.
