I thought barbarians referred to those peoples who didn't speak Greek. Bar bar bar.

 

Pretty sure you're right.

That was the Greek definition. For Rome it was those who were not from the empire.  Historians adopt the same approach when discussing the collapse of the Roman Empire.

 

These days it is an entertaining rugby team.

Tower of Babel and he believed that God also cursed our brains so we have less access to the full capacity of our brains.

Tower of Babel 

was really not that innovating. Despite its bricks has been stolen and used for building homes. 
If sun dried the bricks it could not been higher than 25 meter, but if the bricks was hardened in oven and had a pyramid like shape it could have been up to 90 meters. 
for our brain I like you to know, we read only about those with great minds or who has done the greatest killings. 
while in our time we are constantly reminded how stupid people can be.  But that do not rule out we do not have great minds today. 
History should never be looked at with a narrow mind, nor fanatic religion oriented either. We found remains from millions of years old spices of lizards or birds   
not one from a 2000+ old myth to prove it. 
All we have found is remains of stuff it’s worshippers has built.

You're obviously a man of culture and taste. Soccer is boring and full of divers. But please, no more grabs of Wallaby incontinence incompetence. It's like a stab to the heart.

Soccer, a game where men who aren't injured pretend they are.

Rugby, a game where men who are injured pretend they aren't.

 

Wallaby incompetence?  Wales are so good we almost beat Australia's 3rd team recently, and we only lost to Georgia by a couple of points!
