All I made was a classic argument by contradiction. A is true. A logically leads/led to something untrue. Therefore A must be untrue.
A = I received the same true Holy Ghost that everyone else received and spoke in the "same" true tongues that everyone else speaks in.
Since I received the same true holy ghost and spoke in the "same" true tongues then I shouldn't be able to speak in tongues in the same way that I can do now.
Thus A is false. The only 2 logical possibilities are either that I did not receive the same true Holy Ghost and tongues experience everyone else did or that there is no actual Holy Ghost and tongues experience as Pentecostals describe.
I am a witness that the Holy Ghost and tongues I received were the same as everyone else. Those I used to attend church with would also bear witness to this.
Thus the only remaining option I have is to view all the experiences as not being real.
