    What did the post apostolic church believe?

    Nobody questions the sheer number of martyrs that the Roman Christians provided, either. These folks were willing to stand up and be counted. Hundreds died because of it ( I'm not sure that part of the world had thousands yet, but they might have had).

    Shalunga shalanga umma fum fala- fala. That probably looks like gibberish. Probably because it is gibberish. " Tongues" in the elder English was a word synonymous with " languages."
