Why does the world have different languages?

I know that it's probably a dumb question and I'm probably a bit of a dunce for asking this....but I'm wondering why we are all divided with respect to language? I thought I'd ask this here, as this is a language site.

Any ideas?

I thought that this was a language site, too. After reading a couple of answers, I'm automatically leaving this thread. - cogumela, Jan 21, 2011
