Re: Hypnotism should be illegal!
I have always been fascinated with hypnotism. Would love to see it in action.

I've seen a few different stage shows over the years. They are almost always hilarious but you also feel (sorta) bad for the volunteers after all the stuff the hypnotist puts them through for sake of laughs.

Second, no THAT is not "hypnotism", though perhaps somewhere, someplace if someone is good at hypnotism and people are willing to be hypnotized he can make them do what appears to be emotional things

I am not sure why I need to define them. They sort of define themselves. I've been in countless services where pure emotionalism dictated what happened, although the camp services seemed to be the worst. It is what happens when the majority of people go nutz at every utterance the preacher makes no matter how completely devoid of content it may be. It is what happens when James Brown shouts "Oh I woke up this morning and I heard a certain sound!" and then the whole congregation erupts in song and dance or when a visiting evangelist screams "Oh I was GLAD when they SAID onto ME... I SAY, I was GLAD when they said onto ME, let us GOOOO into the HOUSE, I say let us GO, no stay with me here... I intend to start preaching! Ahhh ha! I said I WAS GLAD when they SAID onto ME, Let us GO into the HOUSE, ahhh haaaa, of the LORD aahhhaaaaaaa haaa haaa!" Now multiply that by 100x and you have a whole sermon that people will be talking about -that is until you ask them what he preached on and they will have no clue.

I started liking to go get my teeth cleaned. I even used it for ex-rays... I would tell them to stop turning it up when the perforated ceiling tile became one giant hole...
...then came the morning I went after a huge breakfast... and puked all over the place!

Re: Hypnotism should be illegal!
I once worked with a man that thought Pentecostals were victims of mass hypnotism. Mass enthusiasm is not hypnotism.
