term for a phenomenon which today is better known as "automatic" or "unconscious" talking. The person who "speaks in tongues" is unaware of what he says, he could talk in a foreign or made-up language, or fall back into speech patterns of his childhood.

Is mostly induced

by either psychoactive drugs (e.g. opium, lsd, psilocybin, mescaline) or a deep hypnotic trance.

Spectator: "They are speaking in tongues!"

Speaking in an unknown language. That is to say it is unkown to the speaker but is not unknown to God. Speaking in tongues began on the day of Pentacost by Jesus' disciples.

Speaking in tongues may seem foolish to the average person (even the average Christian), but if you desire wisdom, it is the thing to do.

The Holy Spirit's indwelling is made aware by the evidence of speaking in tongues
