Of course not.

He speaks all languages, if He so wishes.

It just so happens that Icelandic is the Ultimate and Most Perfect of languages, so He naturally prefers to converse in it.

English, being a more adaptable language, is just as useful, and more widely spoken. But we ARE all brothers in KROMM, and HE can speak to all of us in whatever fashion HE wishes.

Amen.

Of course, I know that He converses in Icelandic and it is only as the result of His Infinite Power and Mercy that you hear it in English.

But despite being a human sinner, I wish to emulate His Heavenly Grace and will thus refrain from rubbing it in. ;)

I do not find that you have done me one better, but since I will cease arguing in HIS Holy Name. Even though we all know that HE speaks in French and that it is through HIS Infinite Power and Mercy that we hear it in either English OR Icelandic. :P

Especially since we agree that HIS Infinite Power and Mercy are at work here.

Not that I'm blind to the beauty of English. I am a reader of Shakespeare, Byron, Yeats and other poets; after all. ;)
