LOL, who I was talking to, and where I was talking to them for just a minute! I was actually confused why everyone seemed to be missing that (IMO) language already evolved. Just chalk that up to it being a Monday!
(For the record, I don't personally believe the stories you listed are literal, but I know that the majority of the people here do!)
