What ever happened to good old "Speaking in Tongues"?

Also, in most churches, one can also draw attention to oneself by pulling a live Canebreak Rattlesnake out of a burlap sack during the sermon and then passing said rattler to one's neighbor...

"Speaking in Tongues"?

Are you referring to speaking in tongues as described in the New Testament books of Mark, Acts, Romans, and Corinthians.

I suspect you were in mind when Paul wrote to the Corinthians.

1 Corinthians 14:23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?

Speaking in tongues is not something a Christian does because he can; he does it because he is moved to.
