first, let me say that i know there's probably a thread about glossolalia. but, whatever it says, it's not what i'm talking about.
recently, i saw a couple of vids on youtube, the first of which showed young people, mostly children, "speaking in tongues". the minister would
literally have parents drag their children to the pulpit, where there would be a cluster of writhing children, speaking in gibberish. and then he had
the stones to say that they were having a "religious experience".

the second was worse.
you might have heard of "jesus camp", which is a radical evangelical bible school. well, a single woman (who reminds me a TON of sylvia pittson in
the gunslinger) brings in christian kids and non-believers to experience "the word of god"; glossolalia and "praise". i think it was the scariest
thing i've ever seen, mostly because i'm agnostic-- i believe that if there's anything, its a collective consciousness, not some single entity. and
that woman thinks the only way is to convert EVERYONE on earth to her religion!
