Abraham Lincoln proclaimed in 1859 "A house divided cannot stand... I believe it will become all one thing or all the other". (All slave or all free)
If I could cite the "Languages of Europe" source below from wikipedia, the Latin alphabet is displayed in Roman Catholic countries. The Orthodox countries have a wider variety of alphabets. The "Arabic Language" wikipedia says, "The language is very important in Islam because Muslims believe that Allah (God) used it to talk to Muhammad through the Archangel Gabriel (Jibril), giving him the Quran in Arabic. Many but not all Arabic-speakers are Muslims. "
Might a divide exist even before secession and Jefferson Davis's final "adieu" to suggest a narrow-minded union and Woodrow Wilson's "Cosmopolitan" Confederacy?
These languages of Europe , whether Roman Latin based, or the Orthodox Countries, develop in a Christian context. The Muslim religion has been promoting Arabic. What makes for a Religious Language and what does not? What can I say for societies that are tolerant as might be the close-proximity of non-native language speakers throughout Europe? What might be intolerant in Arabic countries that erase pre-Muslim history and have a shared holy book and common language?
The Languages of Europe source on wikipedia highlights the concept of "Lingua Franca". " also known as a bridge language, common language, trade language, auxiliary language, vehicular language, or link language, is a language or dialect systematically used to make communication possible between groups of people who do not share a native language or dialect, particularly when it is a third language that is distinct from both of the speakers' native languages.[2] " Lets follow along with this and the Westminster Confession. "...the New Testament in Greek (which, at the time of the writing of it was most generally known to the nations), being immediately inspired by God, and, by His singular care and providence kept pure in all ages, are therefore authentical;(r) so as, in all controversies of religion, the Church is finally to appeal unto them.(s) But, because these original tongues are not known to all the people of God, who have right unto, and interest in the Scriptures, and are commanded, in the fear of God, to read and search them,(t) therefore they are to be translated into the vulgar language of every nation unto which they come,(u) that the Word of God dwelling plentifully in all, they may worship Him in an acceptable manner;(w) and, through patience and comfort of the Scriptures, may have hope.(x) "
So the Bible's "Koine Greek" held influence due to the Byzantine Empire and "Roman Latin" during the affluence of Rome held Latin as Lingua Franca. The Roman Church is considered the sole and singular retainer of that language after the Roman collapse. The Presbyterians, being Greek for "Presbyter", or Elder, are changing Lingua Franca from Latin to Greek.
Would study reveal that the replacement of the African languages be a result of Imperialism and not Christianization. Africa tends to divide in half between Arabic and European languages. The only successful conversions by Christians is integrated into the civilian and human life of native residents.
The "Bonnie Blue Flag" was the more officially recognized anthem in the Confederacy. The word "Bonnie" is lightly integrated into English with a Scottish origin. The Scottish have Germanic borrowings for "Scottish" and also have a rare "Scottish Gaelic" language. The Scottish are known for bold pyrrhic victory, desperate defenses, and heritage.
Louisiana was a designated "french territory" named after King Louis of France. Napoleon's revolution of France was not welcomed by some in the Confederacy. West Virginia Clarksburg or Lexington, display the Scottish heritage to be personified with General Thomas Jackson. What makes one tolerance more important than other linked but separate tolerances? How does all social intellectualism link together in cosmopolitanism?
The Armenian languages and the Georgian languages have ancient roots to the Apostolic missions of the early Apostles to these countries and have no connection to either the Roman or Greek missions.
Will the Union offer a interconnected understanding of all the world and all the Christian world as well , or does it suffer the single-culture single-language imperialism of Japan, with high levels of "Civic Religion" being social dictation of Religion, low-brow religion, while preaching the illogic of dogmatic devotion in a single Religion?
Wouldn't the Confederate still shine through today of notice in a Greco-Roman heritage? That promotes world peace of the nations.
