In Response To: Re: Bringing aid and the Bible (Peter BetBasoo)
Dear Peter:
If we are arguing a point let us do it intelligently.
Your statement :
"And you know this because you have had personal communications with the Almighty...? " frankly sounds frevilous.
One does not have to have personal Communicatons with the ALmighty to realize that Assyrians have not had much help from anyone. After all that has been said and done one can only judge things by their results.
We have nothing left. no cities, no towns, no culture, no litrature, our languge is on the birnk of being forgotten, we have no homeland of our own, we are scattered around the world with little hope for a better future, we have lost millions in various massacres because of our christianity. If that was the almighty's way of rewarding us for two thousand years of our sacrafices to him I say:
"please Lord we have had enough Please stop sacrificing us more than you have already done."
Those who have massacred and plundered us have been rewarded with taking over our homeland and driving us out. They rule millions of people, their culture is here to stay long after ours has disapear. They sit on top of vast oil deposit while we have nothing left to call our own.
