Dead Brainy?

Is standardised good grammar potentially too generalised to facilitate individual expressiveness - like fundamentalist dogma?

A Quaker lady, not known to me, is reported to have suggested that the word "god" was more a verb than a noun. Any comments? After all, Toby Young's West London Free School is proposing all children learn Latin up to the age of 14. Is this an imposition on the free will of students? How can a dead language help us to be more alive in the 21st Century, let alone lead you to free expression?
