Pentecostalism and glossolalia have received much attention from the social
sciences in recent decades. Although much has been learned from research, little
attention has been given to initial Spirit baptism (SB) from a descriptive point of
view, and none has been given from a phenomenologically oriented approach –
which was the concern of this study. To investigate the experience of SB, we
conducted phenomenological interviews with eight participants who were residents
in a 12-month drug rehabilitation program sponsored by an independent
Pentecostal-oriented congregation in the southeastern USA. A hermeneutic and
thematic analysis found six major themes to emerge consistently across all eight
transcribed protocols that described the meaning of the experience of SB: (1)
“Connection with God”; (2) Physical Sensations; (3) Magnified Feelings; (4)
“Prayer Language”; (5) Certain Knowing; and (6) “Hard to Describe.” The
findings are discussed in relation to existential grounds of experience and spiritual
transformation.

To capture audiences’ attention on social media, news outlets may disseminate

journalistic content in line with platform instead of mass media logics, indicating a
platformization of news. Taking a cross-platform, multi-modal approach, we
analyze how German outlets select and adapt existing stories for Facebook,
Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter. We combine a computational and a manual
content analysis of articles and social media posts (N = 4,412), including related
images/videos (N = 6,850). Overall, evidence for outlets following platform logics
on social media is limited: News outlets select and adapt news on a technical level,
for instance by distributing more content on news-centered platforms like Twitter
or by fostering on-platform engagement by excluding external links on Instagram.
However, they do not systematically select or adapt news on a more
communicative level, for instance by preferring specific topics for social media or
by using more engaging language on platforms.

The present paper outlines a Humean version of idealism. It takes our world
to be a mosaic of sense data that are characterized by intrinsic qualitative
properties and stand in external (temporal and co-consciousness) relations. Facts
about persisting selves, physical objects, laws, and causation supervene on this
idealistic mosaic.

Humean idealism is important for two reasons, in my view.

The first is historical. Hume seems to have held, in some of his moods, a theory
similar to the present one, along with a number of Buddhist philosophers. The
terminology is very different, of course, and much work would be needed to bridge
the historical gaps. I leave that task for a different occasion.
The second reason why Humean idealism is relevant is that it undercuts the
most common objection to idealism. Those who dismiss idealism out of hand tend
to do so on the basis of an ‘Anti-Idealist Master Argument’. The gist of that
argument is that the idealist cannot supply truthmakers, or an adequate
supervenience base, for commonly accepted truths about the physical world. I will
reconstruct the Master Argument in terms of the supervenience of truth on being
(section 2).
This Master Argument, however, has no purchase on Humean idealism,
which is committed to the supervenience of truth on being, and preserves all
sensitive truths
(sections 3 and 4). Since the Master Argument flounders on Humean idealism, the
anti-idealist orthodoxy should recognize idealism as a live option in metaphysics
or
produce a refutation that truly works.
