WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!

Is this really what's been going on in Mosques all this time?

[Hydra009]

Reminds me of the churchgoers eating grass.  It's the same crap, just in a different toilet.

[drunkenshoe]

Churchgoers eat grass? Why?

No, it is not the standard. I think they are sufis, could be wrong. It's called zikr I guess.

Anthropologically, this is the same ritual primitive tribes do around fire or some christians jump up and down and talk giberrish, screaming, having seziures on the floor (I forgot its name). There are various types of it.

For those who aren't Pentecostal or Charismatic or Hasidic or Sufi ... this is the most ugly side of religion, even for regular religious people.  I lean Hasidic myself, I admire the Bratslavers.  From out point of view, those who aren't passionate, aren't practicing a living religion.  I got lectured on this by the Rabbi's wife ... and why I haven't been to synagogue in 5 years.  It wouldn't have been polite to tell her or the Rabbi, that they were working against the Ruach HaKodesh.

It would be no surprise to be that most posters here would like Plato's Republic, as long as it was ruled by Physicist Kings instead of Philosopher Kings ;-)

When they fall over and convulse on the floor, it's called being "slain in the Spirit." The gibberish screaming is called "speaking in tongues." Although the Bible describes the gift of tongues as the ability to speak foreign languages that you do not know, Pentecostals believe they're speaking in the tongues of angels. If angels did exist, I would hope that their language would be more tolerable to listen to than the gibberish their mouths come up with. Something like the Quenya language from the Lord of the Rings.

Oh OK. I knew it was called "speaking in tongues" I forgot about it, but I didn't know what it was about. Thanks.

Yeah LotR soundtrack would suit it better, I agree.

Well shit. Now that you've invoked ABBA, I'm sure Brian will be along anytime to remind of us of their holiness.

 I think it's actually, "Yabba Dabba Doo," so Brian can relax.
