Latin, Greek, Both???? Am I Crazy????

We are going to be studying ancient history next year. It seems the perfect time to introduce the study of ancient languages. I am struggling on what to do. Latin, Greek or both. I am thinking that maybe the boys and I should do Latin during week, then as a whole family we should all study Koine Greek. Here are my reasons for studying Latin:
1. Almost half of the English language is derived from Latin. Studying Latin helps students to have a better grasp on English.
2. It serves as a Rosetta Stone to unlocking French, Spanish and Italian. Being multi-lingual is a major plus when trying to enter the job market.
3. Every one of our Science books says how Latin is useful to someone studying science due to the fact that so many scientific terms come from Latin. The same is true for medicine, law, politics (although I really do NOT want to see my kids going into politics), music and literature.
4. Learning Latin helps with critical thinking skills. My kids need to think about something other than video games.

Here is why my kids want to study Latin:


The reason I would like to study Greek is because well, I have become the kind of person who gets tired of being told that even though something is interpreted one way in the Bible, in the original Greek it really means...... something a little bit different. I would like to read it for myself. I could even see my family making up a goofy song like this:


August is quickly approaching. We need to decide.
