- Go to Tongues 2 - Tricky, Trivial, Translatable?
I don't think there is any verbal constipation here!
You are so effective and communicative with your words! But you can do the dance as well...as LONG AS it is not to someone else's tune!!!

PS: In many cases of demon possession, the so-called gift of tongues
takes place and the possessed one begins the gibberish. Sometimes it's a real language and other times it's not one humans know. Still, the possessed one loses his/her will as he/she is taken over by these entities that speak through him/her.

GuiltyDoc, I would even be careful about who translates...Also, what good
does speaking in tongues do? Does it make you read your Bible more? Do you visit the widows and fatherless and take care of the 'least of these my brethren' as Jesus suggested? Does it make you keep the 10 Commandments anymore? In other words, if it's just a wonderful feeling of gibberish and fearlessness without a change in the heart and life, it's an illusion. Just because you're not afraid of the possession, doesn't make it any less dangerous as to what might be happening.

Please be careful with that, my friend.
