According to people like Magie and Aprim, everything was invented in ancient Assyria, and by Assyrians. not to disrespect anyone or to take away from the achievements of the ancient Assyrians, but many of the inventions and achievements were done by other ethnic groups which lived in Mesopotamia. Some fanatics act as if all mesopotamia belonged to Assyrians. Not only were the Assyrians just another ethnic group which was mixed with all kinds of different blood, but they were not the only people who lived in Mesopotamia. There is a difference between conquering all of mesopotamia and actually belonging to someone. There were Summerians, Babylonians, Akkadians, Amorites, hittites, Arameans, Chaldeans and many more. How can all of the region just belong to Assyrians? it gets to me when people twist around everything and try to Assyrianize everything, even if it is a false. Like for example, Assyrians claim they invented astronomy, but any scholar or historian will tell u ancient Chaldeans were the real astronomers and they were not Assyrian. How about the Assyrian language, do Assyrians really speak Assyrian? and did Jesus speak Assyrian as the fanatics claim? the answer is hell NO. we don't even speak Assyrian. we speak Aramaic and even the Aramaic spoken by Jesus and the Israelites of that time is not the same as ours. that version of Aramaic is a dead language that only a handful of people speak.

Like I said I am not trying to take away from the ancient Assyrians, but simply being honest. how can all of the ancient ethnic groups of Mesopotamia be distinct that only Assyrians survived, and only the Christians are the direct discendents of the Assyrians. How can one be so cock sure? how can anyone deny others from claiming to be a descendents of the ancient Assyrians, Babylonians, Chaldeans or Arameans? It's just interesting how they are so one sided. They make bogus claims like denying non Christians the right of calling themselves Assyrian, and go to an extend of denying the Chaldeans their right of claiming to be descendents of the ancient Chaldeans/Babylonians. From personel experience I know that whenever an Assyrian became Catholic, he/she instantly become refered to as Chaldean, and whenever a Chaldean would become Nestorian, he or she would become Assyrian or "Athurnaye" this proves that the both names are religious and any elderly person sees that a church name. even older people in my family some make bogus claims like "only church of the east are real Assyrians" this indicates that it is a religious community. To say that every ancient Assyrian is Christian and freely accepted Christianity is a big lie. It wasn't until after the 4 the century that Christianity even popped up and it was forced on people by the powerful Europeans and even after the 4th century CE many Assyrians or the majority were still practicing the ancient Assyrian religion. They were killed, persecuted and forced to convert to Christianity. However, when the final messenger of God came (Muhammad) and the Muslims came and migrated to Mesopotamia, the Assyrians and others became libirated from Christian oppression. That is the reason why for almost 1400 years the Christian clegry men been creating lies, and intentionally making false statements about Islam. It was out of anger since Islam libirates poeple from oppression, and Christianity is slave religion created by pagan Greeks and Romans which consists of pagan practices and Judaism.It is a slave religion which oppresses people and people had to pay high taxes to the greedy Christian leaders. Therefore, after the coming of Islam to Mesopotamia the oppression stopped and Assyrians or anyone under Islamic protection was no longer obligated to pay high taxes to Christian rulers, istead the only thing one is obligated to do is any working men between the military ages(17-40) and if they could afford it payed 1 % of their savings 1 time every lunar year to the state. That money would be used toward building schools, temples, monastaries, etc. In addition, non Muslim are exmempt from serving in the military, and can live, propsre, freely under their own customs. This is a well known fact and many Assyrians and other Mesopotamians embraced Islam after recognizing the truth in it. Even some Christian Assyrians accepted Islam. However, the claim that all Assyrians converted to Christianity by choice in the 3 century CE is the biggest lie ever invented against Assyrians. It was not by choice, but rather by force, and it wasn't until after the 4th century CE. Yet even after that many Assyrians were still practicing their own religion, until they were either killed, persecuted and forcefully converted to the slave religion which has nothing to do with Jesus.

I hope this helps to clear some misconceptions and lies invented by the fanatic Chrisatians who claim to be pure 100% descendents of King Sargon and Ashur Banipal.

Peace.
