I believe that mankind would be better off if everyone spoke a universal language CMV

I feel that so many social barriers could be broken down if everyone spoke the same language. People from all around the world would be capable to interact with one another.

Sometimes the very thing that preserves a culture's uniqueness is it's obscure language. Basque is one good example of that where a very, very old culture has existed beside and within a modernizing Spain. Another that has stuck with me for years is in one of ethnobotanist Wade Davis's books. His mentor, (Edwin Schultze?), was down in the Amazon trying to obtain rare plants for studying at Harvard for their medicinal qualities. After months the scientists were frustrated because they could not chemically isolate and identify medicinal chemicals in these plants that that knew had to be there. They were picking the species identified by the tribe they were working with as having been used as local medicine for centuries and yet scientifically they just weren't seeing the proof. 

Then a linguist studying the tribe mentioned that the tribes peoples had 23 different words for green and even toddlers could distinguish different ripeness and growth stages of the local flora to a level that was completely lost on the Harvard scientists who had simply been lunping the species of the plants together by species, not subtle shades of green gradiation. The tribes people called the same species by different names depending on just exactly how green they were. They unlocked that key and all of a sudden had the provable results that they sought. The "simple" tribes people had a linguistic trick for knowing and communicating differences that nobody who didn't live in the forest would have reason to know or care about. And, in so doing had kept some of their most valuable knowlege alive for centuries by word of mouth in an illiterate culture that had more grasp of the ethnobotanical uses of their resources than did the Harvard scientists.
