Talking in Tongues / Receiving the Holy Spirit

 

Hey, if God wanted to reveal Himself, He would. He would not go through a person and make them run around and talk in mysterious languages. Which is what some Christians believe happens when someone receives the Holy Spirit. When they run around, I do not believe they are necessarily lying, I believe it is an adrenaline rush or something psychological. If the Holy Spirit does really go into a person, why would He have the person run around church and speak in different languages? And why does it never happen in a Catholic Church, where there is no preaching or fast music. Or in people that don’t know this behavior exists. These people are excited for God, which is great, but it is not the Holy Spirit.
