TED Talk battle : Mark Pagel v Patricia Ryan

Here are the questions, you know what to do! (for those that forgot, I need to see one post and one reply to a post from everybody, THIS IS REQUIRED)

1. Is one language inevitable? Is one language common to the whole world a defensible project? Why or why not?
2. Can we afford to have all these languages? Why or why not?
3. Does language divide us or bring us together? Why?
4. Do we use language as a barrier (Pagel) or as a door (Ryan) to understanding?
5. Does language promote cooperation or act as a barrier to it?
