I have put this thread on a couple of religious forums yesterday, no one has yet defended those who speak in tongues, including Christians.

What is there to defend??

Have you not heard the teaching?  "Do not cast your pearls before the swine"  Yes they would trample these things underfoot because they are ignorant of value or content. The fact you word the above as you have done, shows you cannot know the purpose or value of these things.
We know we have to work together to abolish war and terrorism to create a compassionate  world in which Justice and peace prevail. Love ;D   Einstein

Sassy Floo strikes me as being one of those who see any religious curiosity as a serious threat to the order of things.

It is worrying though that there has been a movement in that brand of atheism from upset at what the religious do in public to what they do in church and in private.

I'm sure Floo would be the first to make churches public places and glossolalia illegal.

A stitch in time makes nine Sass, don't put all your eggs in one basket, a nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse, it takes two to tango.

All the above are equally as usefull as your rather daft post Sass.
