How is a Christian to know if his words are Holy Spirit guided discernment or self appointed condemnation? I think it is save to say that few Christians would label their words as anything other than the former.
But the bigger issue is the message itself. Is the message true?
This is what is overlooked in these debates. Many will read a post and instead of examining the message for truth, will divert the debate to the motive of the messenger. This is what you and others are attempting. Lets debate the motives of the message and not the message itself.
I have given a clear and frank reply as to what I see as to the bogus nature of this movement. The truth stands regardless of the assumed motivation of the messenger.

You appear to have condemned the entire Pentecostal/charismatic movement on your own authority.
I share your skepticism but I think you may have gone too far.
