And look how badly it turned out for him. He should have said yes, yes, yes, yes yes.

I counted to make sure there were five.

we are thinking it’s unlikely most [Christians] are trying to pray in English

Pat meant the Christians whose prayers God can actually understand.

I love the condition, just not the description. Kind of like when I was listening to some country song and Dolly Parton said, "I'm in heat." https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

Hey, that linguist sounds pretty cunning.

This always confuses me. To most Christians "speaking in tongues" is a miraculous ability only a handful of early church leaders possessed which was to speak in their own language and be understood by listeners as if it had been in the listener's native language. So how did a small subset of Protestants get the idea that it's the complete opposite of that?

I'm really sorry, but I may have to quit reading Wonkette. The ads that pull you out of an article 5 or 6 times are bad enough, but the new ones that hijack my browser and try to install malware are completely unacceptable. If it continues I am gone.

By incredible coincidence he wrote a book with a similar title. You may have heard of "The Cunning Linguist" by E. Tingpusi. Same guy.
