day no. 15,731: jibber-jabber

"The problem with 'tongue-speakers' today is not that they speak in tongues, but that they do not. Nonsense remains nonsense in any language." -- Douglas Wilson, Not as the Scribes: A Commentary on the Sermon on the Mount

Gibberish is not intelligible, nor is it even intelligiblish. It's not ish or esque, it's just plain gibber, or perhaps at best, jibber-jabber. But either way, it's nonsense; and nonsense is not a language in any language. Gibber only communicates confusion and gibberish is somehow even worse at it.

1 Corinthians 14:33
For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.
