And then at the other end of the spectrum, people describe a crazy place...with people convulsing and speaking toungues...doing backflips and grabbing rattlesnakes and chickens...and yet those are the people who look foreward to it all week, etc...as compared to the people in the "regular" churches who look like they are made to go, etc...

If you want to go to church and have fun find a black southern church and put on your Sunday best and go have fun. I had a teacher in school who was also a preacher and we went to his church several times and even though service lasted two hours we really enjoyed ourself. You know its going to be fun when you walk in the door the music is going and they hand you a tambourine to get things started.
