For crying out loud, Quix! Didn't you get it? It's greater to prophesize than to speak with tongues!
That's plain Bible. As a shrink, I can understand folks not believing and practicing what the Bible says in that verse. As a Christian, I can't. I don't have a rubber Bible. Sorry for those who do.
As a shrink then you must also understand the dynamics of mass hysteria. Rubber Bible? I guess that depends on who is holding the Rubber Bible. Is it you or is it me?
Slipping and sliding around; ignoring uncomfortable Biblical points is not impressive, to me.
I suppose that could be one way of acknowledging that Paul declared he would that ALL people speak in tongues.

True! And I wonder how much that's encouraged in the churches of the perspective presented so . . . persistently?
Still doesn't negate tongues! Just says "B" is better than "A." "A," tongues, still has it's place!
Those umpteen verses about tongues are not chaff. They are not meant to be ignored or reationalized away.
