Very likely, one that does not actually exist.

And this claim almost certianly remains correct even if that creation story itself were factual, as whatever language they spoke probably does not exist anymore due to evolution of language.

Can I just express my incredulity at the idea that hundreds of millions of people subscribe to a religion whose foundational narrative of creation is about punishing people for wanting to learn? Like wtf

The one language that everyone spoke across the world before Nimrod tried to reach heaven by building the Tower of Babel. In punishment for this offence God muddled everyones minds so that many different languages were suddenly spoken and people around the world could no longer easily understand each other. This is where the word babble (to speak unintelligibly) gets its roots from. After the Tower of Babel that triggered this problem.

Or something like that. Im just going off of my memory of this story.

People have tried to find this out a few times over the centuries.
There's a story of a King, possibly a few, i forget which, that had a theory that if you isolate children to grow up without language, they would default to "the original" language

Needless to say, it never worked out

Yeah, it's pretty fucked up.

Thankfully, the examples cited are all caveated by "allegedly."

That's why it works. Teach kids from a young age not to think critically and they're far more likely to accept anything they're told by authoratative figures who align with their worldview. The cycle of abuse perpetuates
