I don't believe what is called holy laughter to be Biblical in any way.
Because you are Baptists as the OP declares holy laughter as happening even in Baptist churches

Not sure why I was tagged. I'm not interested in the holy laughter movement nor Hindism. The posts you cited for me to read are far too long.
Sorry.
Since there is a report that holy laughter movement does happen in the Baptist churches, the late Dr. Roger Barrier did not discern it as apostasy, even though he did say not to pursue it, and yet this came about seeking a filling of the Spirit which I believe is the cause and effect for that phenomenon to occur.
What Is 'Holy Laughter' and Is it Biblical?
Although the Southern Baptist convention condemned it, it seems they are not discerning why God is allowing that strong delusion to occur in the Baptist churches in the first place.
The common denominator that I see with the Lord's help is taking your eyes off of Christ in worship is why this is considered suffering a thief to break through as happening in the Baptist churches & other denominations as well.
I am glad that you guys have not experienced it but I did when I went on vacation with my folks to visit my aunt in Missouri. It was not a Baptist church, but an independent community church.
It was in high school when I had experienced the same rudiment in the world as "instead of Christ" when Ernest Angeley's Healing Crusade came to Victory Baptist church in Ohio, forgot what city it was, but the experienced is mentioned in post #8 as the focus was on him touching people on the forehead to cause them to go backwards while announcing the Holy Spirit falling on them to get that healing with a :Whoo hoo...!!!"
All I got was a tickling sensation in my dead ear as I was feeling vibrations but that was it. Then the next day after school, I experienced a paralysis after taking a nap and I had to call on Jesus to deliver me from it and He did.
Although, I would not doubt that was where I got my ulcers from, but I will know for sure when I see Him face to face one day.
Hope the Lord is informing you of the necessity to narrow the way in the worship place to the Son if you wish to come to God the Father by John 14:6 and to actually honor Him by in according to His will per John 5:22-23 because any other way is a work of iniquity per John 10:1 & Matthew 7:13-14 that can land a believer in being left behind per Luke 13:24-30
