Re: Nothing will be impossible for them....
No, of course not. Why would language be any different thanany other facet such as vision, coloration, locomotion, hearing, touch, or other things?
Let me ask you a question?
Why would language develop?

Re: Nothing will be impossible for them....
Good start.
Now who would you communicate with?

Re: Nothing will be impossible for them....
Soin the beginning of language, you'd talk with those who were physically close to you?
Is that correct?

Re: Nothing will be impossible for them....
But when language was originating there was no telephone. In fact, it's likely that there were only small groups or bands widely seperated from any others.
In such a situation, why wouldn't you expect a variety of different languages?
If you never see anyone except your local group, how would one language be an advantage?

Re: Nothing will be impossible for them....
As others have told you, that's not quite accurate. For example, one way we identified different whale groups was from their songs. Bird songs vary greatly from area to area.
Communications is important. Language is complex. It is a learned action.
It's very likely that language as opposed to sounding is one of those things which was invented time after time, in group after group, place after place. In the americas there appear to be at least five different root languages. It's one of the key things that have been used to build a picture of the arrival of different groups to the continents.

Re: Mortality
Well Buz, I sure don't see an connection between the curse and the Tree of Life. What is true in the Genesis Myth is that GOD feared that Adam would eat of the Tree of Life and become like GOD and so chased hime out of the Garden.
But it's only part or the myth and certainly no indication of design as far as humans were concerned. In fact it would only be another clear example that there is no design.
