Now that I think about it, it was pretty scary, but i didn't realize at the time. What do you think about that? and how do people get possessed? Or is that what I should ask to my pastor? Thanks. Lolol. Later, AS.
This person wasn't necessarily possessed by a "demon." The unfamiliar language is called speaking in "tongues." That's basically an ancient or archaic language that was used waaaaaaaaaay back in biblical times. These people that do that are actually just praying and they get into it heavily, almost putting themselves in a type of trance. What probably happened to this guy was he got so caught up in the moment, or prayer, that he was going "nuts" and had to be contained. This is not uncommon in religions that practice the speaking in tongues ritual. Later, QD.
