Would a Universal Language Make the World More Peaceful? (America, POV)

[Phil Osophy]

Of course, there is an nternational language, and there has been for some time. It is called Esperanto, but after a promising start it seems to have faltered. More information is available here:

I think that its good that we all come from different cultures and we all speak different languages.
of course there are people that practice biggotry and say things like we are in this country so you have to speak this particular language but if you see the beauty of communicating with somone in your mother tongue then you can see how it wouldnt be the same for everyone to speak with the same dialect.
i love to speak spanish. !mi corazone es en mi rasa! (my heart is in my race) and wheather i understand it or not i love to hear my friends who are muslim speac in hindi. i think that its good that there is somthing that people of different cultures can share within there own culture. and reallt the only people who argue about it and are yelling things like we are in america speak english only do this because of there ignorance.
if you felt that strongly about understanding everyone when they speak you would put that passion to work and buy yourself a translating dictionary, some reading glasses' and a bookmark.

When I first mentioned a “Universal Language,” (on these boards in another thread) I meant it literally as “Universal” not just Planet Earthsville. Secondly, I was not speaking of a particular known language but rather tones/sounds that transcend all human languages, whereby Person A can be speaking English to Person B who speaks Chinese and both can fully understand each other without the need for an interpreter. I’m literally speaking of a basic numeric language that—I believe—is already encoded in our consciousness. Furthermore, it is truly a “Universal Language” in that—I believe—in accessing it can also allow humans to communicate with vegetation, rocks, animals and so on, because it will use vibrations through the vocal cords with full clarity of intent/communication.

ADDITION: By the way, I also believe that this language (which, I believe is already encoded in the consciousness) is NOT a written language. Furthermore, I do not believe there will be any need for written communication when the "Universal Language" is opened up because, in doing so, it will also open up the storehouse of all collective memory. Therefore, there will be no need for written records.



Comprehend what gave you the idea to start this thread? ...just curious.
