It is therefore surprising that England (whose people, in modern times, are pretty much like Americans in this context) has the aforementioned sharia court, but according to the article it wasn't created by the government, it was allowed for due to phrasing in their legal code.

Pentecostals really aren't TOO weird...they can live in American society just fine. They don't care what other people do, and only like to worry about how they live their own lives.....the strictest of them won't watch TV or anything.
They also do some weird stuff like speaking in tongues....the whole "being overtaken by the Holy Spirit" type stuff...I personally never did any of that, lol.

Pentecost sprang from the evangelical movement of the 1800's....VERY VERY spirited services and yeah, fire and brimstone preaching :-P
I personally don't support the UPC stuff...and don't like the whole speaking in tongues thing, it's a bit much for me....
