:
: ***Your English language skills need no apology.
: I thank your for your answer
: I agree with you when it is about the holiness of a nations. History
: proves
: how wrong was the jewish attiutude towards the assyrian people. Jonas, a
: jewish
: prophet refused to death to say a word to the Niniveh citizens, but God
: loved
: assyrian people (see book of Jonas in OT last verse) and send a stubborn
: man
: to talk from God unto them.
:
: ***Youīll have to excuse me again...I donīt recognize a Jewish tribal god as any kind of a god...certainly not as bloodthirsty as that one. I have no use for gods...they all demand murder in one way or another.
:
: Nevertheless the people of Niniveh repent
: and listen to the
: words of the Unique Lord, while the hebrew had always a weak attitude
: towards the
: spiritual values.
:
: ***My people never "repented" and never had reason to till they turned Reformed Jew and learned to apologize for their ancestors. I am not a Christian...your gods mean less than nothing to me. Jesus was a good man, I suppose...but there have been many and all too many of them have been..and are now being killed by the followerrs of these gods of yours.
: I intend to make a bible enciclopaedia in English and Romanian, with a
: fine desgin

: Also if you wish we may have a mutual benefits from promoting your site.
: I am also a website designer and a multimedia artist, working at the
: single contemporary art magazine from Romania: Balkon. You may visit the
: old balkon site
: www.balkon.ro (not suitable for Macintosh)
: and the new balkon site I am working on at
: http://idea.dntcj.ro/balkon/ (suitable for Macintosh) unfinished but
: very comprehensive and very functional.
: I may work to promote your site.
:
: ***The last time I was "promoted" I barely escaped with my life. No thank you. If I can be of help, I will...but not if you use my work to promote any Jew or Christian cause...nothing personal...Iīm just tired of having my worth as a human and as an Assyrian tied in ANY way to the service of the Jewish religion...Orthodox OR Reformed.
