Philosophically, we might redefine the human race not as an inherently murderous species but as one surviving through cooperation but susceptible to impairments to our elaborate and fragile social behavior regulating neural apparatus. The ethical ramifications of the Babel hypothesis are many and complex. Mine is, anyway. Every new development that expands our knoweldge of the world initially threatens our established value systems before it is accommodated and incorporated. Though for concision's sake The Babel Effect refers only to Judeo-Christian core tenets, there are many parallels in Buddhism, Shintoism, Islam, Taoism, Hinduism, and other spiritual traditions.
Many prominent thinkers argue that they do.
For die-hard romantics, traditional humanists, and religious literalists this seems at first a demeaning reduction of the worth of personhood, faith, mystical belief. If fully apprehended, however, the realization of this congruence can inspire reverent awe at the great, hidden patterns that organize the universe and shape our organismic lives. All men are brothers. Love thine enemy. Turn the other cheek.
