Poe Probably Wrote it

Original: All religion, my friend, is simply evolved out of fraud, fear, greed, imagination, and poetry.

Round One! Arabic: Every religion, my friend, has simply evolved from fraud, fear, greed, imagination and poetry.

Round Two! Esperanto: Every religion, my friend, simply evolved from fraud, fear, greed, imagination and poetry.

Round Three! Luxembourgish: Every religion, my friend, simply evolves into fraud, frustration, greed, imagination and poetry.

Round Four! Romanian: Every religion, friend, evolves simply into fraud, frustration, greed, imagination and poetry.

Round Five! Sinhala*: Every religion, friend, lure, frustration, greed, imagination and poetic quality grow.

The verdict? Lots of thing grow such as religion, friends, lure (temptation), frustration, greed, imagination, and poetic quality. Not exactly what we started with, but it isn't wrong!

*Random Note: Learn Sinhala (the language of Sri Lanka)! The characters are beautiful! :)
