> Original quote is just mind-bogglingly stupid.

To be frank, your quote is mind-bogglingly stupid. How easy do you think Java is to read to a native Greek speaker with no English language knowledge? Would the Java standard library be as easy for you to read if it were written in Greek? Would java still be an easy to read language if all the keywords and library were in Greek?

If your only definition of a good programming language is one written in your native language and a PL becomes bad if written in a different language, then your criteria is terrible/useless. And right now that's your criteria.
