Title: What are your thoughts on "glossolalia" or speaking in tongues?
Post by: Groucho Marxist on December 02, 2007, 10:47:29 PM
I find it rather crude.

I think some people really can do it. Others, like the "evangelist" Benny Hinn, are just charlatans.

It's where pentacostal christians get whooped up by a preacher, become delusional, and start some unintelligable babble and then claim it's the 'holy' spirit. A bit like demonic possession except possession by the 'good guys'.

What is speaking in tongues? A tongue is simply a language.

Oh yeah, I've seen things like that on TV. Psychology can explain that kind of behavior. The human mind is so powerful that it will make people experience things like that.

True. Same with demonic possession.

If somebody is made to believe (by the power of suggestion and their own willingness to believe) that they're possessed by the devil, they'll really think they are and start talking in a funny voice and saying your mother's in hell doing rude things.

 :::D True!

Possession?....Rubbish! Demonic possessions only happen to those who believe in it. I don't believe in demons trying to get inside of people, yet only those who DO, and live in a subconscious fear from it, ever experience "demonic possesion"
It's funny to also see mooslims suffering from "jinn possession" take a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeWziJ8XPWg (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeWziJ8XPWg)

MuSSlims ARE possessed by an evil demonic force. It's called iSSlam.
