Few would argue the significance of language in the evolution of the human species. Language serves many critical functions within the human experience, from keeping us safe to social engagement. While communication certainly exists in other species, the depth and complexity of the human language is second to none.

Babbling is the term for the second stage of speech development after the newborn stage of crying. Anyone who has been around a newborn knows they cry when they're hungry, cold, sick or in need of changing. Some cry because they just want to be held.

"He that planted the ear, shall He not hear? He that formed the eye, shall He not see?"( Psalm 94:9). The origin of human language-the ability of men and women to communicate with one another in intelligent, symbolic, often abstract speech and writing is a complete mystery to evolutionists.
