:: Clement, no one inquired about your three issues. What I observed was how Eoinc and JDWpianist deny that some languages, and religions, are superior to others. As long as they deny that obvious fact, truthful or productive dialog with them in this context is impossible.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 08:28, 7 April 2009 (EDT)

:::Could you give some examples for languages which are ''superior [to others] not just "on what criteria you choose," but overall.''? Schopenhauer thought that German was only second to Greek and Latin, the French think that their language allows for more precision than any other, Italian is the language of ''belcanto'', and I suppose that even some Eskimo dialects are preferable to English when you are going to hunt seals.
:::So, I think it isn't easy to compare the quality of languages and I don't think that there is a '''true''' language, in opposite to religions.
