The perfect language

Probably cuz the religion was invented 2000 years ago
What if the Romans got Latin from Satan?
Satan did tempt Eve with knowledge.
Theory: this is latent Protestantism showing itself. Protestants hated the Latin Mass and vilified anything associated with Roman Catholicism. And so depicting Latin as the language of the Devil was part of this project.
I mean, Nero was considered an antichrist.
Yup, specially the Beast with the 666
Maybe Latin is just a simplified form of Infernal that us humans can pronounce
Maybe Hell is just so full of red tape that it was only thousands of years after it had been a predominant language, did they switch to Latin for all contracts. In another 1000 years, they’ll switch to Mandarin, by which point we’ll be speaking duck.
Hell still runs on cobol.
It's why it still works.
Quackity quack? Quack!
The real Satan speaks Sumerian, that's a well-known fact.
Makes sense, Satan's a lawyer
Satan: No idea why you’d think I wouldn’t move on from Latin. Probably something to take up with movie directors, hey?
Well, I can't imagine hell does a lot of innovating in the humanities. At least not any that isn't a form of punishment. They probably just take whatever inventions humans come up with that suit their needs.
Latin was the language most conducive to evil.
The oldest lenguage still in use is Basque, it's straight from the stone age. All words that have to do with cutting or separating, have as their root word stone.
Latin is like the second oldest language still in use or something isn't it?
Well, thers hebrew, greek, farsi which are actually spoken. Ancient greek is still sifferent than modern greek as, i assume, is the same for the others.
Good stands with Constantinople, evil stands with Venice.
