    Hugh Nibley read in just about as many languages and remained a believer. So speaking languages gets you closer to the truth? Can one not draw incorrect conclusions in many languages?

    “Speaks many languages therefore knows the truth” isn’t a rigorous argument, no. If I remember why I chose the title, it was more like “I agree with this statement. Oh and BTW, this dude spoke 29 languages!!”
