[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Research shows that the sounds that come out of people's mouths while they are "speaking in tongues" does not represent any language whatsoever - it is gobbledygook. [b]This is of course conflicts with what the bible describes as speaking in tongues, which referred to people speaking other languages[/b][/quote]

This is what gets me. [b] In the Bible, speaking in tongues meant you could be understood by people no matter what language they speak. [/b] Now people think it means being understood by no one at Earth, but probably by G-d, and everybody nods along like there's no obvious disconnect there.[/quote]
Where in the Bible does it same this?

Here's what the Bible says about it:

Acts 2:4 ESV 
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.

1 Corinthians 14:2 ESV 
For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.

1 Corinthians 14:23 ESV 
If, therefore, the whole church comes together and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are out of your minds?

Of course, if you don't believe then this is all gibberish to you (pun intended), much like if you don't believe in Jesus, then the idea of a virginal birth is cookoo to you.[/quote]
