    What I'm saying is there are languages in use today that shows no relation to certain other languages. Some examples of these would be English-Chinese, Hindi-Russain, and Greek-Arabic.

    Outlaw I'm not giving my opinion so my opinion doesn't matter here. Everything I stated was fact. But I've seen some of your post before so I really didn't expect you to say anything intelligent anyway.

    Blue grass,

    You are quite correct to say that Japanese, for example, shows no relation to Russian.

    This is true, but Japanese does show relation to chinese and Korean, now, certain dilects of N.China and Mongolia share some things in common with certain dialects of the soutern parts of the former soviet union, so if you allow me to play very liberally with languages and their geography:

    Russia - Southern Russian- Tajikistan-Hindi-Tibetan-chinese-Japanese.

    Crude yes, but gets the message across.

    Blue Grass,

    You should really read more on the history of languages (a number of useful links can be found from the thread I pointed you to on p. 1, and you will find many others from a simple Google search). Try to get some clues about the so-called "Book of Jasher" while you're at it (e.g. http://answers.org/bible/jasher-book-of.html).

    I would add, however, that this linguistical issue is irrelevant to the Babel story, which only implies non mutually transparent languages, not unrelated ones. Even closely related languages are often opaque to each other.

    Funny, you haven't said anything intelligent either... You cherry-pick the posts you reply to, consider no one's opinion (note I intentionally use the word "opinion") other than your own, and offer vitriolic comments to the blanket atheists you find so morally offensive. If there is one thing I have noticed about current witnesses (and a few former ones) is how self-righteous they are with their changing "truth". Get off your high-horse.
