Depends on their maturity.
A spiritual experience can fire up the emotions.
Certain emotions can enhance spiritual experiences.
Without maturity... experience... it is difficult to be discerning.

Disagree. I have been spirit filled right out of a deep sleep with a joyfulness that's so hard to describe. I was in a very tough marriage and ready to give up on God, I didn't think HE was helping me.But He let me know He is and always with be with me.,.
Last year I went to my parents full gospel church. The preacher had a calling for me to come before the church. I reluctantly went up thinking this was not real it's just a
Benny Hin act for sure but when the preachr prayed for me, I felt like a lighteningbolt shot down through the top of my head to my feet and I was down for the count.

I disagree with it. I don't think their emotion works like most people. I think they are out right blind to emotion. They have lives ruled by some unseen dictator. I can get emotional. Am I so moved I need guidance from some ancient text? How much of it relates to today's world? They aren't emotional they're crazy.

Totally agree. Most people cannot tell the difference between their emotions and the genuine work of the Spirit of God.
The simple test is TRUTH. If the 'spirit' or emotions a person is experiencing lead them to do something or say something contrary to the TRUTH - then they are deceiving themselves.

I don't believe in spirits, deities, magics or anything. So spirituality must either be ignorant emotion or something of the sort. Maybe they just had a few too many beers.

Dissagree. Emotions match the spirituality that the person has.

To be honest that would be impossible to determine what goes on in each persons head. I think if we delve into that Cosmo of thought we risk becoming judgmental or each other. It's like saying black people all want watermelon...that's that true of course yet it is a judgment unfairly given

Disagree. A lot of people are both, or one without the other.
