A quote from a book:
"Then too will our words carry no discord, but will add their quota to that great harmonizing chord or unifying word which it is the function of mankind ultimately to utter. Wrong speech separates, and it is interesting to bear in mind that the word, the symbol of unity, is divine, whereas speech in its many diversifications is human."

I don't know if the issue is truly one of criticality, or perhaps intolerance. I don't necessarily see the world criticizing it's disparate member as much as I see the overt pursuit of nations imposing their own beliefs and ethos' on those around them.

I would like to think that we use your words wisely, but somehow I don't think we do. Regardless of translations and ethnic dialects, the underlying issue is one of tolerance. Typically, if a nation opposes the thoughts or actions of another, action is taken to try to remedy the problem (in the eyes of those with the "solution"). Rarely do factions simply express their dismay verbally, and peacefully go on about their existance.

I wish the problems of the world were simply a semantic misunderstanding, but linguistics can't bear the burden of hate and prejudice.

We feel the need to criticize especially if we do not know if our opinion is totally right. Words are tossed around freely, and that's how you cause conflicts.
