Religion The Problem with Toddler Preachers Speaking in Tongues...
Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Fri, Jul 30, 2010 at 1:05 PM
...is that you can't understand a goddamn word they say! Take this toddler preacher, for example, who took the mike from his pastor father to lecture the church on how Jesus Christ bled to death for their sins, but didn't make a lick of sense because, duh, he's a toddler. (Not that Christianity makes sense anyway... but you get my point.) Happily for all followers of THE WORD, someone has taken this video and put subtitles on it, so now we can all experience the holy wisdom this toddler is dishing out.
Waitasecond... who's gay? What's "stirring ice cream"? "Ostrich?" WHAT??

Shit, is he fronting a band who's amps aren't working?
He's better than half the singers I just saw at Warped Tour in Cincinnati.

Unfortunately, you have people who will see this as a valid spiritual phenomenon and interpret it to give justification for their actions in support of their delusions.

Huh. You give a three-year-old a mic and let him just make noise in it, while a crowd watches on and encourages him, then call it speaking in tongues? ...Yeah, that sounds about as valid as any other example of "speaking in tongues" I've seen.

I think I'd like to be an organ player for a church like this. You just screw around on some progressions on a fat fuckin system while the sermon is going on. Much more enjoyable than sitting through some lecture, and you still get donuts at the end and points with the church babes for being saved.

Hilarious! Reminds me of this Joe Cocker video, with subtitles:

He's not speaking in tongues if he's speaking in English and, according to the subtitles, he is. Obviously.
