Regulations

The people of the United States of American in the formation of the Constitution gave the right for the government to regulate communications and commerce. It makes sense. Everyone needs to be on the same page. To get along and prosper people need to be able to communicate in a way in which everyone can understand each other and trade goods so people can acquire their needs and desires.

Even the bible had a statement after the flood Noah had escaped, in Genesis Chapter 11, that stated at the time man spoke only one language and nothing would be restrained from them. Over time, different dialects became and become further distant from each other to eventually evolve into different recognized languages. During this same time, they could not understand each other and the Lord scattered them abroad upon all the face of the earth. This is most likely because they did not understand each other. Many relationships that have communication problems can lead to harsh interactions.

In linguistics by definition, different dialects are defined as different languages. The reason is because, sometimes one dialect will understand another neighboring dialect and a third dialect may understand the second dialect, but the first and third dialects may not understand each other. Therefore, it is easier to define them as different languages even though they may be the same root language and be close enough to understand each other.

Another reason I do not think the United States should declare a national language. The more languages that are spoken and written, the more ways people have to communicate and articulate and hopefully create greater understanding and less conflict, aside from being able to freely speak a preferred language on one’s own time.

Now, I do not believe that the forefathers of the United States of America could possibly perceive some of our future inventions, telecommunications and data communications nor completely understand how the human body works or their interactions with the human body. Let alone what inventions and discoveries may still yet be to come. On the other hand, I do believe they held the values of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness very high, and no matter what inventions may come about, none should interfere with or encroach upon life, and liberty to be able to pursuit happiness, or the concept of the ideals of people mutually respecting each other’s life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

When the forefathers of the United States replaced the temporary government through the Articles of Confederation with a stronger central government and Constitution they did not throw out the Declaration of Independence nor its ideals, and shortly following the Constitution the Bill of Rights protecting certain rights of the people declared in the Declaration of Independence was ratified by the States. As the ratification of the Constitution was carried out, more states wanted to protect certain rights to where amendments became a condition of ratification, and one state refused to ratify the Constitution until progress was made on the issue of The Bill of Rights.

If previous entries are possible, besides trying to figure out Who Is This God Person Anyway, then maybe as people we need to discover more possibilities and solutions to problems. Maybe with more knowledge we can make wiser decisions.
