I don't speak an actual language, but yes I do speak in tongues. My lord and savior is a big fan of confusion and the Holy Spirit loves it when I speak jibberish. Super-califragilistic-expealodocious ... amen.

Hilarious. 2000 year old joke and counting.

Yes, because you spout gibberish out of your mouth and believe it to be some unknown language being communicated to you telepathically by the invisible spirit of god. That's pretty damn close to the textbook definition of delusional.

What's next? Dancing with poisonous snakes?

I'll see that bet and raise it to $50 on Polaris. Surely if he speaks in tongues [ergo god is speaking through him], god will grant him other extraordinary powers necessary to beat the poisonous snake.

All the rest of you are suckers, betting on a snake that is going against someone who can clearly channel god himself through a bunch of incoherent tongue-waggling.

Wait...

No, NO, YOU'RE the sucka! I have it on good information from some other guy that if you're not present to witness it, you can't discount it! And Polaris claims to be channeling god [not directly mind you but he's hinting pretty strongly; I feel confident in my choice!] himself, and nobody's there to discount this, so we MUST take it as truth! You're the fools for not taking this on mere faith and giving credibility to both claim and implication! *lmao*

It's amazing what some people will do to weasel out of a bet.

I agree. I "beat the poisonous snake" all the time and I haven't even gone blind yet.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I'd like to get me some of that poisonous snake vs. Christian action.

$50 on "toothy" por favor.

After snakes, can we move the betting on to drinking poison? Taking a slug of Drain-O would require a lot of faith. Doubtful, we have any Christians around any more who have the requisite intestinal (and esophageal) fortitude to take on that challenge.
