Radio masts are not Towers of Babel

In Genesis, God's punishment for the Tower of Babel was the confounding of languages, "that they may not understand one another's speech."

In reality, the tallest existing structures are broadcast towers, which allow people over a large area to hear the same voice, listen to the same song, or watching the same show.

The KVLY-TV mast, the tallest structure since 1963, has a broadcast range of 30,000 sq mi (78,000 km2) around North Dakota.
