    I am having a real problem with this chapter. "confound their language" "scattered them abroad"

    Does God segregated them, one from another, and change their languate in order to keep them from plotting and planning evil and working together to go against his word? God's intent seems clear that they were to live apart. So are all cultures a product of this action by God?

    I think the main reason was to populate the whole earth.

    Sure seems like it since they were the only people on earth at that time.

    To Confused: Yes and no. God intended to stop them from building. It was not his intention to cause strife that is all man's doing.

    The confounding of the languages is what spured the scattering

    Thank you for the response Uriel. You are correct. And, I must not have been clear in my writing, as I was actually asking if God's purpose was to create different cultures, languages, and borders to keep us from working together for evil purposes?

    It seems like that may be the motivation from the beginning. I never considered that the same would hold true today, but it does I presume.
