This language issue is what makes me hold on to the Bible. It seems that there is no clear explanation of how many languages came about. It does however make sense that GOD would be involved according to religion, just another way of making things more mysterious.If there a way to explain the language issue with out the Tower of Babel story please lead me to it?
Language is/was no special invention made by some humans thousands of years ago. It is a natural phenomena among humans. It even happens that twins develop their own language, a language that only they speak (and their parents don`t understand), with not only words for "things" (nouns), but even with some grammatical systems. Place a group of 3-yearold kids on a desert island with plenty of food and water (ok then, and a mute nanny ), and come back 20 years later. They would be speaking a completely new language.
