    I don’t get it. This post is just a Christian looking to mingle. The tongues thing basically means he is looking for a Pentecostal. The weirdest thing about this is the antivax thing which is dumb and the tongues but all religions have weird practices.

      My grandparents were Pentecostal and my mother was raised in the church. She remembered the terror of polio and saw babies die from measles. We were all vaccinated. Having faith doesn’t have to mean rejecting science. If God created everything, he created medicine and gave us doctors. Bunch of grifters out in the world.

        I didn’t mean to imply pentecostals were all anti-vax, just that they believed in a very specific form of the gift of tongues.

      If he were a Pentecostal he’d know where to find that woman, she’d be going to the same church he is.

      More than likely he’s exhausted all of his options there.
