Thank you for the welcome VViews!
I understand your point that the term glossolalia is anachronistic as applied to the Voynich ms text. I should have just used a simpler more neutral term like "meaningless text".
I'm glad you brought up the example of Lingua Ignota. We Voynich linguistic text analysts should probably study the example of that language more than we do. I will have to take a closer look at it.
About modern Christian glossolalia and "speaking in tongues", as I understand it, some of the ardent true believing glossolalia speakers actually believe that they are speaking a language that could be understood by somebody! Who this could be, and how, is not clear to me. But they believe it has meaning to somebody, even if they and their immediate audience could not tell you what that meaning is.
