God, through His Apostle says that these spirtual languages should not be used in The Church setting, unless it is for the edification of the people present...and must be accompanied with an interpretation given by the Holy Spirit.
"So then (spiritual) languages are established for a sign, not for believers, but for unbelievers, but prophecy is not for unbelievers, but for those who believe." 1 Cor 14:22
And even right preaching or teaching, without love, is no good.
"...And if I have prophecy, and I know all mysteries and all knowledge and if I have all faith so that I may remove mountains, and I have no love in me, I would be nothing. And if I should feed everything that I have to the poor, and if I hand over my body to be burned up and I have no love in me, I gain nothing." 1 Cor 13:2-3
I have never heard someone who claimed to speak in spiritual tongues condemn those who do not. There may be some who have, but I have never seen it or heard it taught anywhere.
