...
speaking in 'tongues',
ordinary people
without will,
release of all ego,
sputter forth the
vocalization
and innermost connection
to anything remotely comprehensible
of the concept of
'god',
~
as 'holy scholars',
doctors of philosophy,
and
'the righteous'
and us,
scoff,
~
to look towards words
created by
'jesus',
'mohammeds',
'gandhis',
'jiddus',
'obamas',
or even
'star magazine',
~
to raise and inflate our
balloon of spirituality
and fly to a place we call
'heaven',
to touch a 'god' that created
us in an image that
we have never laid eyes on,
but only interpreted
within the realm of human
capacity.
~
we refer to this thinking
as 'sane',
and those who
sputter glossolalia
questionably
'unstable'.

Im not sure I understand...
Im not sure I understand... what is glossolalia? It seems an intrugel part of the story you are telling and its lost to me due to lack of a better vocabulary.
Hi Daniel! It's been awhile
Hi Daniel! It's been awhile since I've seen much from you!
Basically, from what I have read, "glossolalia" is the term that was created for the action of "speaking in tongues" by some non-believers of the Pentecostal and Charismatic Christian faiths, seemingly in attempts to discredit the belief due to what is felt by some to be quackery. That is how I understand the word. I have no idea...and in case you're wondering, I have never spoken in tongues. It is supposed to be some sort of spiritual "gift" of union with god. For all I know it could be the same thing as a seizure. If you read the link I provided you will see how there specific changes in brain patterns of those who have agreed to be studied. Very interesting!
