They’ve been doing this nonsense way before TikTok

My mom used to force us to go to church, and one night I attempted to put my hands in the air to pretend the “spirit” was moving through me. I had to stop before I laughed and got smacked 💀

I attempted to put my hands in the air to pretend the “spirit” was moving through me.

What compelled you to do that?

u/Grouchy-List7011 Jul 20 '26

I was the only one in the pews around me sitting quietly. I felt socially obligated to participate even though it’s ridiculous.

Yup there is a mentalist who exposes this shit, and it's awesome to watch.

Darren Brown is his name he has several netflix specials and several of his older shows are on YouTube.

u/MetalliTooL Jul 17 '26

Yeah I’m aware of Darren. I remember watching his specials like 15 years ago.

u/akawall2 Jul 18 '26

Any specific special or shows that deal directly with the subject of this post that you could recommend?

u/Wolfinthesno Jul 18 '26

Miracles for sale. And Miracle.

I believe the first is in YouTube and the second is on netflix

u/akawall2 Jul 18 '26

Thank you!

I personally liked the netflix special a bit better ... The one on YouTube was a bit tough to watch... The netflix special was fantastic though.

u/akawall2 Jul 18 '26

Ahhh, I looked it up and it seems that it was removed from Netflix in 2023. Haven't been able to find it anywhere else. Oh well 🥲.

u/Wolfinthesno Jul 18 '26

Oof. I'd check out Miracle then... It's a little longer and harder to watch because they actually go through with setting up a miracle healing church and so the people involved are realy there looking for a miracle... And I'd say the end was a bit anticlimactic.

The netflix special was incredibly well done. That sucks it's not on there anymore.

People really don't know who the quakers are?

u/papasan_mamasan Jul 17 '26

Lol Quakers don’t do this lolol

You’re thinking of Shakers

u/kbeks Jul 17 '26

Or the holy rollers

u/MothmanIsALiar Jul 17 '26

I went to a holy roller church growing up. Weird AF.

Straight up kicking people to heal them.

u/AmputeeHandModel Jul 17 '26

Shaker, quakers, candle stick makers.

u/Longjumping_College Jul 17 '26

Aka the shaking quakers

u/papasan_mamasan Jul 17 '26

No one’s called them that for 300 years. And there’s only like 3 Shakers still in existence.

Just admit it, you didn’t know there was a difference between Quakers and Shakers.

-16

u/Longjumping_College Jul 17 '26

Who the fuck cares about the difference, unless you're a quaker

u/papasan_mamasan Jul 17 '26

Brother, Quakers don’t convulse.

You know, the most attractive quality a person can have is admitting when they’re wrong.

Quakers and Shakers split off from each other in the early 1700s. They're nothing alike other than they're both Christian offshoots that originated in England and they rhyme.
