The pastor told me to let the spirit fill me and just let the spirit flow from my tongue. I made up words and repeated them. I thought up the words, I new I did, but I thought God would find his way through the gibberish. I know how convincing blind belief of something can be, convincing doesn't make it true. When people get goosebumps during prayer, while that melodic music played in the background, we were told that was holy spirit washing over us. I also got goosebumps at the end of the movie, Gladiator, was that also the holy spirit?
See with tongues, you don't have control about what you are uttering.
And we return to my original point. Perhaps I was never really a Christian at all.
Mumbling nonsensically is a trait regularly attributed to the insane.
