Edenics?!?!?!
http://www.homestead.com/edenics/whatisedenics.html#top
Well............this poor person that wrote this, he bashes science, yet pleas to it to substantiate his claims, then he clearly comes off from a theological "side" yet says that the only way a person could agree that words from completely different linguistic families that are similar is coinscidence, is to take a "leep of faith." Then he'll point out the folly of others' fallicies, but this page is WRIDDLED with fallacies... So anyway, I'll let you read this mess, without getting much more messy myself trying to explain this guy... |

This person is clearly confused. Edonics was the first language, devised by Ed, all praise His Name. All other languages that start with an E and end with "ics" derive from it and are blessed by the Holy Ed. French is clearly not a holy language, nor Latin, Hindi, Parsi and the lot. Edenonics, Ebonics, Ebabananaowawaonics are the only true languages.
Thus endeth the lesson. |

I've read a much more intelligent theory about all languages having one common origin, but the author of the book wasn't daft enough to think it was closer to Hebrew than any other, or that it was spoken in the garden of Eden.
Can't recall the author, though. |
