					<description><![CDATA[Being &#039;drunk&#039; with the Spirit is one of those terms that causes gas for those who practice piety. Even me, raised by a properly english grandmother and father whom she taught always to &quot;do the right thing&quot;, I always found gatherings where people became boisterous and uninhibited were distasteful (to me). But in hind sight, and in consideration of the Holy Spirit when He comes upon us, the term &#039;drunk with the Spirit&#039; makes sense in that when the Spirit comes in/upon, the false piety (religious inhibition/prohibitions) of the flesh is overwhelmed.

I was raised Presbyterian where in religious services there was a decorum / behavior that was expected and communicated by all in attendance - a conformity. Stand to sing while holding the hymnal, stand for the doxology, gloria patri, benediction, sit for prayer with closed eyes bowed head and folded hands. A cough or sneeze would get a look of admonishment from those nearby. Ushers seated us in pews - they always trying to put people nearer the front than anyone wanted to sit. It was all very structured and scripted. So imagine the Holy Spirit came upon such a congregation - and people bolt from the pews to dance, sing, praise, speak in tongues in the aisles. Having their religious piety (inhibitions of religious flesh) over come by the Spirit would almost certainly be seen by those upon whom the Spirit did not fall as drunkenness or perhaps lunacy.

Perhaps drunkenness is just a poor explanation for having had false religious piety/decorum washed away.

Hope all is well sis! ]]></description>
