When some
people start to feel
religiously
ecstatic, they start to
babble a
stream of
nonsense which sounds like it might be some sort of
unknown language. Some people
believe they are just making
noise. Other
folks believe that
God has touched them and allowed them to
speak in the language of
Heaven (and while some believe they can
translate this
language, others say that no human mind can
comprehend the meaning of the
angelic tongue).
The
scientific term for this
phenomenon is "
glossolalia".
