I think it's very hard to confuse languages like French and Spanish, they are so different!
Yo no hablo francés
versus
je ne parle pas français.

I like to study languages though, so maybe that's why I hold that opinion. I speak German about as well as a German 4 year old , know enough Spanish to know when I'm being insulted, and a two dozen or so French phrases.

I know Texans who don't even recognize Spanish. ><

I know it was part of the joke I've taken 3 years of spanish and i'm going to take a 4th year when im a senoir in high school, right now in a junior.

I want to get an opinion from a person that votes based on religion, so far every one has told me they would vote for an athiest based on political stance and religion is not a factor. But i want to find some one who doesn't vote on logic, and find out why religion plays such a big role. And yes i am talking about becoming the prez of the united states, not france, they are way too liberal for my taste, no offence to the resident frenchmen.

None taken: it's always good to hear a nicely worded criticism. But if you're looking for somebody on this forum who doesn't vote on logic (supposing that's not part of your joke) I'd be very surprised if you find any. Spot on tho.

This forum is not at all representative of the population as a whole. Much harder to find atheist haters here.

Nash and Santa_clause are religious people, maybe they should join this thread? Then i'd have the irrational religious voter I've been seeking.

In lieu of the fact that no real debate can go on in a thread where nobody is contesting others statements, might as well continue the threadjack!

Spanish and Portuguese are so freaking similar I don't blame you, I would probably mix them up myself. But I don't encounter too much Portuguese in Texas, lol.

Croatian which translates into: "May God make you marry a centipede, so you have to work for shoes all your life!"

Gee are you resorting to personal insults with anyone here or that's just another joke?

The thread had strayed rather far from the atheist topic, and as Tito was a President and a Croatian, also an Atheist, and as the Croatians have galloped back to the arms of the papa, they now have altered their social comments by involving god in most of them, the serbs have done the same.I thought all you linguists would spot it.
Maybe the clues were not for the obtuse

But to bastardise a saying "if the shoe fits wear it".
