I didn't know there's a word for it, but google defines glossolalia as:
"the phenomenon of (apparently) speaking in an unknown language, especially in religious worship. It is practiced especially by Pentecostal and charismatic Christians."
I have a feeling that the Democrats aren't fighting back as hard as I expected on the potential ACB nomination.
They have a plan to destroy her, and maybe glossolalia (aka speaking in tongues) will be their means of attack.
I can see Kamala asking her, "Do you believe that you have the Gift of Tongues?"
Amy C Barrett sorry everyone
Newsweak retracted that story.
I don’t post much, but I assume there will be some apologies coming my way.
many Catholics also belong to the Charismatic Renewal - where praying in tongues is practiced. from what I remember there is no prohibition against those practices of the renewal like tongues or prophesy for the Catholics that participate.
Ahhh. The Handmaids Tale. Yep. Thats going to be their line of attack. I can absolutely see it happening wall-to-wall media. CNN is salivating.
Trump is a pragmatist and will (probably) not pick ACB. Speaking in tongues, her 8 kids, and her anti-abortion stance all poll terribly. Don’t shoot the messenger.
money shot... “Reuters could not independently verify her account.”
“Answer: My religous beleifs are my own and you are perilously close to breaking the law against religious tests.”

And then add: Since you have asked such a question, if you vote against me I will assume you are actively discriminating against me based solely upon my perceived religious beliefs and I will shortly be filing a Discrimination Lawsuit.
Just for poops and grins.....
And if she does?
I had two co-workers who claimed to be charismatic Catholics in the early 80’s-they were a bit different than my family and I in how they worshipped but no speaking in tongues, passing out, etc-none of that stuff mentioned at all...
Even better answer: shouldn’t you be asking Joe Biden that, first, given all his verbal gaffes?
THAT....
And, no one, here, that I know of, has either.
Kamala may wanna steer clear of any gift of tongues questions.
Holy cow, you sent me to NEWSWEEK, what is the matter with you?
Kamala may wanna steer clear of any gift of tongues questions.
Best reply of the thread!
I heard a clown trying to fake it once. Hilarious. And some of his idiot friends were buying it.
regarding your newsweek and msn links:
You’re a moron: that whole handmaiden’s tale nonsense was fabricated out of whole cloth by newsweek and has already been discredited and retracted AND posted here already:
https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3886577/posts
too bad you don’t bother to read the other posts on FR before posting your nonsense ... you’re better off not to post here anymore ...
Apologies? Youre the one who should be apologizing. If you had posted your facts and information first off in your article, and not in the thread, then so many people wouldnt be so confused.
Learn to post.
I see what you did there. Even Willie Brown sees what you did there.
It is out there. Been there, done that, bought that T-shirt.
Lord’s Ranch, in south eastern New Mexico, with connections in El Passo and Juarez, was a hub in West Texas. Visited there for a couple of weeks in ‘86. Interesting place—first time I saw somebody exercising what was purported to be the gift of prophecy. It struck me, upon reflection and the passing of time, as at least in that instant, the gift of wishful thinking—over he next half-dozen years I drifted from the fringes of the movement to out.
