  5. That is an intense way of expressing one's worship. Perhaps putting people in this type of environment triggers some form of hysteria among the group. Judgments aside, it's great that these people are having a grand time worshiping God.

  6. This video shows how powerful religion can be and how people can be so devoted to a certain religion.

  8. I admire their fervent devotion regardless of my own religious beliefs and views. I've never been able to submit myself so deeply into any church services.

  9. This was very confusing to me in class, but I don't really understand why the whole exaggeration is necessary. However, I think this is one of the most interesting aspects of religion-the fact that there are unique aspects about each one and we can only try to understand.

  10. I would say that every religion has different ways of praising God and there should not be any judgments about it, specially when their intentions are good. Some people think that the reaction of the people in this video is kind of exaggerated but as I said if they feel good on what they are doing, then I don't see the problem.
