While I do want defragmentation of technical and scientific research (imagine the duplication that occurs given that lack of a unified scientific research dependency tree), I specifically qualified myself with "...as a second language." A world where everyone speaks one language would be boring as fuck, not to mention probably a dozen generations in the future before it would happen. But realistically the future global language of Earth is probably going to be Arabic, Arabic speakers are reproducing at a rate that virtually guarantees it. I can't remember to attribute this quote/sentiment accurately but here it goes... "The war against the West will not be won on a battlefield but in the wombs of our mothers..." I also can't speak to the accuracy of the claims in the following link, but they are thought provoking and worth a watch/read. http://religionresearch.org/martijn/2009/05/05/islamizing-eu...
