    GLOSSOLALIA: Speaking in tongues bears no resemblance to that described in the bible where everyone that heard understood clearly whilst the modern version is just psychobabble! It is also related to xenoglossy, which is speaking in a natural language that was previously unknown to the speaker after a brain injury! No surprise it was started in America by slaves from countries that practiced Voodoo!

    Speaking in different tongues or (languages) was a gift of the Holy Spirit given at Pentecost. There was also incidence at the Corinthian church. This gift disappeared in the 1st century. In the early 1800 during the camp meeting revivals.....certain groups claimed that the Holy Spirit revived this gift. Its still seen today in some of the Pentecostal churches.

    I have witnessed this phenomena on several occasions.....it is pure B.S. God is nowhere near it.

    And you can tell everyone I said so....

    Still no and just because you put a question mark at the end, it doesn't make it a question? See?
