Website title:

...the fable of Abgar is a slander on the Assyrian people and Heritage. What does the story really say? Abgar was suffering some disease...he hears that Jesus makes miracles...he writes to Jesus asking to be healed and inviting him to his city...Jesus writes back that he's busy but by the time the letter arrives Abgar will be cured...the story is supposed to show that Ashur was helpless where Jesus could deliver...hence Abgar made his people convert to Judaism...the religion of Jesus.

Okay...why did Abgar call on Jesus? Was he interested in philosophy or morality or new ides? No. He went seeking a cure...he WANTED a miracle from a reputed miracle worker..and when he got that miracle, he switched to that religion...presumably because he was impressed but also because he knew he'd need miracles some more...the entire conversion was driven by self-interest of the lowest kind...a king who would betray the heritage and religion of his ancestors....hardly a moral example to anyone but rather an opportunist who would have sold his mother for a cure....fast forward to our Christians, who believe this nonsense, and look at them.

They didn't stop at Abgar's shopping spree....but they have gone on and on changing to different versions of this religion and every time they did it it was in order to gain some miraculous benefit....every time.

You know what that means....it means we already know what these people are...we're just haggling over their price. Yes, they are whores for Jesus...as Abgar was.

had the cure NOt come, Abgar could have cared less about any "message" of Jesus.

Mar Bawi is in that tradition...he's got his own version of his religion...and he's splitting off....like Abgar did.

These people are NOT the kind to ever achieve unity...they WRITE about it...they ASK for it...they TALK about it...but they haven't the experience or the fortitude for it...just like Abgar they are constantly shopping around for their own point of view to be recognized as THE point of view...no one will give up or in to anyone else...it's a disease with them...that's also why they aren't to be trusted...like Abgar they've shown they have a price..that they can be bought...if not with a cure then with eternal life...their interest in Christ bagan when they thought they could BENEFIT, tangibly and on THIS earth, from switching over.

They are traitors through and through...and whores too...for all their polite words...they have a price.
