A computer translates English into Chinese. A visitor suggested, “out of sight, out of
mind." Inserting it into the computer, it came out in Chinese letters. Not knowing Chinese he ran it through- from
Chinese to English. This is what came
out, “invisible idiot.” – Carl Sagan
Needless to say, sometimes translations do not work. That may be the best reason yet for delving into the sciences in the pursuit of truth. In this way you will rely on no one or no thing, as your knowledge will direct you.
And this is why we are still faithful to Hebrew after all these millennia.
