Make English the universal language.

Name: Anonymous 2006-08-06 6:38

Fuck your culture, you heard me. Culture is just technology to be hand-picked at the INDIVIDUAL'S discretion, not something you have to indoctrinate your children from birth to believe has value even though it is obviously pointless. You have no right to FORCE your INFERIOR culture on people.

Everyone should speak 1 language to make things easier, if you want to learn other languages go right ahead, but don't let the fact you like shoving things up your ass or whatever you think is so great about your 'culture' interfere with making the world a better place.

I'm not trying to force my culture on you either, I don't give a fuck about English either, language should be totally logical, like equations or something, the simplest method of communicating possible. That way we can concentrate on pushing communication to new levels that were physically impossible with all the drivel we have to learn alongside inferior languages.

Discuss.

>Orthography is a system of writing that can easily be changed or improved.

Easily? Wrong. In the case of English in particular, many efforts have failed (see Wikipedia).

>But English has more definitions.

Provide detailed proof please. Please don't bother to reply until you can do this. Also, be clear about what exactly you mean by a "definition".

>Why did you put "definitions" in inverted commas?

Because you seem to use the term too loosely and I'm not even sure you know what you mean yourself.

>So what were arguments you used which I have not defeated in debate?

I only needed to falsify your arguments (listed in parentheses) or show that you made them up on the spot.

>A universal language will make it easier to communicate complex concepts.

Of course. But it doesn't have to be English. Are you following the discussion?

>So what were arguments you used which I have not defeated in debate?

Already answered above. Please try to pay more attention.

>English is the most widely used language and is used extensively in world class universities and scientific institutions.

You were asked to provide proof for your "more definitions" mantra here, not to repeat some of your other catchphrases.

>however according to you English is inferior, whilst all other langauges are better

I never claimed that all other languages are superior, however your only (somewhat) valid argument in favor of English seems to be that right now, English is a popular second language for many people. Unfortunately, this says nothing about the quality of the language itself. And since there's no pressing need (in fact it's impossible) to introduce a universal language in the next few decades, we might as well take some time and agree on a language that's not only popular at the moment but also isn't ugly, inconsistent and hard to learn.

>This is possible related to your racism

Racism is a natural and healthy thing. It keeps us whites from breeding with niggers who advocate a language on the Internet they haven't even mastered themselves.
