Some might not want to simply it to this extent to consider it the same as current language, but it is an idea.

With the Islam countries that official language is Arabic and Israel speaking Hebrew they are aligning one way as a country. The other countries seem to be trying to create a double standard if they want to retain a religious type flag and official/primary religion different to original language these religions were written in? Fine if they make it a religious free for all - but England as an example is using a Christian flag, saying it's official religion is Christianity yet speaking English as an official language and not Hebrew.

In my opinion all flags should have to revert to non-religious. The UN could put pressure on all countries with religious type flags to change them. I also find it unacceptable that a country is allowed to have an official religion. I feel like this across the board, I think of all countries and religions the same in my head and in an ideal world no one would ever commit a crime to me worldwide and there would never be any wars at all from now on.

Unsure how doing this would effect world peace, something I've been thinking about.

Some countries have animals on their flags. Should they be changed because those countries don’t have Eagle as an official language?

I don't think you can say an animal on a flag is having the same political/social effect as a religious flag. This isn't a comparison with correlation.
