The atheist has to explain how thousands of (DISTINCT) languages could have "evolved" or come about naturally in such a short period of time without a god intervening - such as in the Tower of Babel.
Wrong. Only those who believe in a short Biblical timeline have the problem of explaining how the various languages evolved so quickly. Those of us who have studied a little and know that humans have been around a couple hundred thousand years do not have the narrow time-constraint that your faith imposes upon your thinking.
I haven’t imposed a historical record that only includes a few thousand years of recorded distinct languages. That’s all there are in truth and reality. Sorry if that defeats your beliefs but that’s on you to reconcile
