I was always under the impression that the Hebrew Language was created
by G-d and not by man. The only word in Loshon Hakodesh are those words
that are used in the Bible. The Bible was written by G-d before the  
creation of the world. This would leave the previos answers which 
use man as the reason for writing Hebrew from right to left wanting.

There must be some mystical reason that I don't know for this
phenomenon.
