    I assume you mean the Tower of Babel where every spoke a different language to each other and therefore could not understand each other.

    Judging by your spelling and the appalling English grammar and spelling used on this website we are fast approaching that situation just for the English-speaking world, never mind the rest.

    More seriously though, I think websites such as this promote better understanding between peoples of all races, religions, cultures and languages.

    If anything I'd say the internet is a great channel of common communication between all kinds of people all over the world, a unifying rather than a dividing force.

    At least up to this point. I hope various world governments don't succeed in "correcting" the situation.

    Babel you mean. Then no. Internet's still chiefly English.

    But Babble is right.
