WTF is this "Private Prayer Language" or "Charismatic Prayer" that is as bad as porn according to the SBC? Is this a euphemism for "speaking is tongues", and why is it so bad? I was under the impression that this was considered a form of devotion by a lot of Baptists.
| Quote | | According to the AP ("Seminary passes resolution against speaking in tongues", 10/19/2006), the trustees at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary recently voted 36-1 that "Southwestern will not knowingly endorse in any way, advertise, or commend the conclusions of the contemporary charismatic movement including 'private prayer language.'" |
They're all wierd by my reckoning, but pornographic? I don't get it, but then, IANAB.
