When I was a young girl I was taken to both Catholic and Protestant pentacostal meetings where people often spoke in tongues. Everyone else seemed terribly impressed but I could clearly hear that the speakers were saying "Abada babada beebada boobada," in a chant--it was not some unknown language, but gibberish.

On the other hand, we have no right to judge whether or not, during the speaking, there is some powerful interaction going on between the speaker and God. We don't know what is in the speaker's heart and mind; only God does.

My nephew and his wife who were raised SB were going to an Assembly of God Church because they like the worship service.
(Which I tend to agree with BTW:>) )
Some one there "spoke in tongues" and he understood what
was said. The preacher then said "OK lets have an interpretation" After several requests from the preacher
he spoke up.
How or why should I argue with that?

you not only have that right to judge, but you have a responsibility to judge whether something is from God or not!
