why greek.

on my favorite travel show...anthony bourdain (a delightful cynic of a man that eats his way through strange places), there was a lovely statement by a greek man.

when you want to speak english, you think in english, right? well, in order to speak to the gods you must speak greek.

there it is. professor throntveit always says,

God speaks hebrew.

umm. i think the greeks feel otherwise! so, another reason to learn greek. on cable tv a feisty greek gentleman said that God speaks greek. i thought it was amusing.
