Shlama Akhan Steven,
But, the Hebrew of the OT is excellent, is it not? The Arabic of the Quran is excellent, is it not?
Aren't both of these collections considered to be primary sources in their respective linguistics circles?
Even outside of "Abrahamic" traditions, consider the works of other major world faiths. Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Mormonism, etc. Are any of these traditions rooted in an uneducated and rough language?
I'm trying to answer the question: is there another "religion", like (western) Christianity, that has a (for the lack of a better term) Creole-text as its sacred text?
+Shamasha
