Xenophobia has caused countless wars and hate crimes.
Ultimately, it's not about the myths and legends one's tribe worships or the color of one's skin, it's about one's heritage: unfamiliar customs and invisible deities are no reason to deny other cultures. They are challenges to enlightenment (and also one's understanding of metaphors) that need to be addressed.
If the citizens of one race accept the citizens of another race the leaders will realize this and be willing to work with them, not against them. Wars will not cease until we all realize that we are all one. Invite your enemy to dinner.
The conspiracies and machinations of a ruling elite are as old as mankind. The rules for implementing and sustaining the power structure are ancient and have not changed. The basic rules used against us are:
1. Keep the people in fear of losing their protection from unspeakable evils and remind them of these unspeakable evils often;
2. Keep the people afraid of each other so they won't trust each other and won't want to join together in vast numbers. This is accomplished by accentuating the ridiculously reactionary and seemingly pejorative differences between race, religion, sect, class, gender, sexual orientation, age, language, culture, skill set or whatever other differences can be manipulated to help divide people rather than unite them, confuse them rather than enlighten them, and make them misunderstand and mistrust each other: Keep them out of heaven at all costs.
3. Create conflict so that the powers that govern can be seen to solve the conflict, thus keeping people submissive.
4. Isolate and destroy any independent thinkers.
5. Always deny the truth.

The construction of Babel began in January 1996 as the development of a new multilingual, multicultural online journal of arts and ideas, utilizing the new media of the web to reach out to as large and inclusive a world community as possible and celebrate human enlightenment regardless of language, cultural or social restrictions.
Babel is now repositioning itself to take advantage of the advancements in web tools since its inception as well as the opportunities available in the 21st century.
Design your language's tower however you wish but continue what has already been pioneered as an attempt to build a tower aiming for the highest egalitarian, altruistic, philanthropic and humanitarian structures.
If you're interested in helping to build the tower contact malcolm@towerofbabel.com with a resume, bio, and link to your own personal webpage, indicating how you'd like to help build the tower and what your web skills are, especially with the tools mentioned above.
Babel is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization currently seeking funding. These positions currently offer no compensation but a meritocracy has already been established for when funding is secured.
