oral and writing are just two option on how people can communicate with one another and this has started during the prehistoric days.
let try to visualize the early age.
A hunter try to talk around with his fellow hunters and strategize how they will hunt the pray.
after hunting and celebrating for what they hunt, those people drew on cave just tell what happen on that day. thats how writing probably started ;)
its kinda awesome how drawing turned out to have meaning and because of that, we started to think of them as a symbols and then signs.
lets visualize one more situation,
your an army going to be sent for world war 2 and your still at your place embracing and talking to your parents that you'll be okay and you will come back alive. thats how oral is. and when you are in the battleground. you write to your parents everything your going through. thats how writing is.
so talking to someone important or reading there letter can still be an equal result of a persons emotion.

yeah nice story about the prehistoric times that we all have to remember what our roots are. It is also reasonable that writing and oral thoughts are some quite equating at times because at some cases we have more advantages depending on which ever our strengths are.
It is just a normal basis that we have more technological advances that makes the mediums more advanced and thus letting us have more options and capabilities.
