If Jesus didn't have to learn English (or Latin) why should Hispanics?

Even though the government spoke and ran officially on Latin, Jesus only spoke what he fellow travellers spoke, and with different dialects, it's unknown if he was even able to communicate with the entire province, he certainly was never taught Latin, which every important official and merchant knew

Jesus got by in the Roman world fine just by probably knowing a few phrases or had friends who knew latin, or there were translators

It's funny:

The "son of God", from a family of carpenters...he didn't bother to learn the language of the government or important business, yet hard working carpenters who learn a few phrases, more than enough to contribute to the US economy and every else...they're supposed to do more

I was going to post something that would have gotten me in trouble but if we start making our country's decisions on what and what not Jesus had to do I think you would be disappointed.

Um, Jesus was crucified. He didn't get by in the Roman world just fine.

Come on guys, even if the topic is borderline insane (Im not saying it is or isn't), this is still The Floor, not the Speakeasy.
