Joshua:

You said, "But I imagine the "real thing" goes on as well, especially in countries wherein the gospel has never had a major influence."

Is it possible than that dramatic manifestations do sometimes occur in remote or unreached area and are not mere illusion?

Also, should we expect that the West should have a rise in these manifestations as it becomes "Post-Christian"?
