I was just wondering, maybe slang -informal text style english-is something inevitable, something that changes with time and is just one of the many developing factors of the world. I'm saying this because looking back a couple of centuries ago, people spoke how we would consider poetically with "thou art" and flamboyant language and today we just speak how we would consider normal english. Maybe leet speech is a thing of the future.
Or it could also be linked to technology which is speeding up our lives tremendously....
This academic year for me has literally flown by. Time is moving at an incredible speed because of our complicated extremes and indulgence.
:) What do you think?

Principle of entropy, everything moves from order to disorder as time passes, this is a basic scientific principle.
Also, it's a good way of proving that the therefore evidently has to be a God, because how else could any order have been created in the first place.

I think you should go to the library and sign out Prof. John Gatto's book "The Underground History of American Academia". You will see that people are not getting smarter but actually dumber. We now have a system of "education" or dumbing down that has taken 300 years to perfect. Populations are always easier to control when they are dumb and dependant on the Government. This is one of the major reasons why the Muslim Populations in the Muslim world are uneducated and indoctrinated (programmed) with such political and religiously molested views. It is well known that the Koran, but mainly the Hadith, portray Jews as evil yet the Koran and the vast majority of Muslims have no concept of what Judaism is, what a Jew is or what their teachings are. Thus the leaders of all these Muslofascist groups and their Anglo-American fabricated tin pot dictatorships can control its dumbed down masses. For ever 1 book published in Arabic there are somewhere in excess of 5000 published in English.
Europe in the 17-1800's had a near 100% literacy rate. This was solely due to the teachings of Judaism as education is a pillar of Judaism as passed onto the masses via Christianity even during the days when Martin Luther was favorable to Jews....before he found out that they would not convert out of their faith...
Education seemed to have reached its summit with German Enlightenment/Emancipation.... Today, everything around us in media, business, politics and academia are decidedly contra to Judaism as they promulgate the collapsed paganist ideology of Greco-Roman Hellenism: Violence, Sex, People/Idol Worship, Materialism, Immorality etc.
One of the most knowledged and dangerous people from that time that did his work to "progress" the world was not Karl Marx, although he did do immense damage, but Sir. Francis Bacon which some argue was the real Shakespeare...
So today it is not proper English but Ebonics or Nigganese ;)

Thats true but a lot of atheist present the misguided arguement that nature is harmonies and therefore orderly and also that science is the answer because it is an orderly mechanism. However they don't venture beyond the point of where this science actually came from.
That was a good explanation Marzutra and the world is getting dumber however you are only basing that on the comparasion of todays intellects with decades ago. Now is considered intelligent for some....

"Those who do not learn history are condemned to repeat it" - George Santayana.... We are repeating the past therefor we have not learned....hense we must not be knowledged.... ;)

A moot point because the average 'Brit' of tomorrow won't be speaking English, they will be speaking Arabic, some dialect of an African language, whatever it is that comes out of the mouths of Pakis (gobbledy-gook), and whatever else have you. The presence of these foreigners pollutes not only our towns and cities but our language. Everything beautiful must come to an end. :)
-
I most certainly hope not, that would imply that we Jews and Judaism must too come to an end..... Hopefully, we can change that to, everything that is bad must come to an end ;)

IN the world in which we live, any event that does not involve the hand of God results in a net increase in chaos.

How philosophical of you! Also very true. But God rules all and I (as a Christian) believe he showed us that he has power over Earth by sending His Son down. God is the exact opposite of chaos, He is order itself, anything with order is touched by God.
-
Yes, I believe that God has power over this earth, but I do not believe that he directly touches everything.

As technology advances in areas such as Peer to Peer applications, and as a whole, we will become more and more lazy. So, in turn, we will be more likely to use slang and short-hand variations of words/sentences.

G-d is the source of both order and chaos. To say He is limited to doing things with order is making him even more limited that you and I!
