Having people run around speaking in tongues isn’t really something that most Christian denominations do. It’s specific to a couple. IIRC the big one is the Pentecostals. Snow Crash had a plot that centered around that, kinda took some digs at the Pentecostal church.
With over 279 million classical Pentecostals worldwide, the movement is growing in many parts of the world, especially the Global South and Third World countries.[10][11][12][13][14]
Christianity (/krɪstʃiˈænɪti/ or /krɪstiˈænɪti/) is an Abrahamic monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus. It is the world’s largest and most widespread religion with roughly 2.4 billion followers, comprising around 31.2% of the world population.
So you’re talking about a denomination that’s a little over 10% of Christianity. That’s not nothing, but it’s also not really representative.
