Protestants have their weird, creepy cult stuff too. Ever hear of so called "holy laughter"?
About ten years ago I was trying to drive home when traffic on this particular street came to a total stop.
In a house up ahead someone had gone public with the claim that the Blessed Mother had appeared in the wood grain on the door of a bedroom armoire.
News crews and a mass of people from who knows how far away gathered and absolutely clogged the streets. I found it totally embarrassing. The Church has really failed in its teaching mission if so many Cathholics are willing to jump to these sorts of superstitions.
No.
But I have heard of it among Pentacostals.
Ever hear of so called “holy laughter”?
No.
“Oh yeah, you’re weird too” isn’t much of a rebuttal.
Don’t worry, the Catholics are getting in on the “holylaughter” too with the Charismatic Catholics recently endorsed by “Papa” Francis.
I was raised as a Lutheran and not once did I hear any ‘holy laughter’.
That is the Pentecostals, of which I am not one.
Oneness Pentecostals are considered a cult. They deny the Trinity, say the evidence of salvation is speaking in tongues (holy laughter).
Used to live across the street from some and they did not like me very much, as I was never shy about telling them that all that was hogwash...kinda like I do the Catholics. :)
