You can tell it’s horseshit because if they were actually performing the miracle of Speaking in Tongues that they claim to be you would be able to understand whatever they’re babbling about regardless of what language you speak. If they were genuinely doing it you probably shouldn’t even be able to tell unless someone who speaks a completely different language comes along and says something like, “Wow, it’s crazy that this congregation prays in Swahili,” or whatever.
It must be reassuring to see the world in simple absolutes.

And the rest of us laugh at you guys who think a progressive church is any less batshit crazy than speaking in tongues.

Yeah like “sky daddy helps me!”
A progressive church is one where we light it on fire. That’s progress!
