That's kinda weakness of english language itself, because when everybody is capable of using it, then it's hard to distinguish actual native speakers from foreign actors (and genuine users too) that are proficient at it,
meanwhile let's say that you have group of people only using some not so popular language like X, then it's way harder to pretend to be X user, so at worst you're being trolled by people from your country which may not have as bad intentions.
Or maybe I'm too optimistic about my not so popular language :)

- long_time_gone 5y ago== Your insinuation that Christianity implies credulity and unfounded wishful thinking says a lot.== It says almost as much as you insulting someone for having different beliefs than you. Doesn’t seem like the kind of thing “believers” should do.
