...Jews remembered Moses, they remembered David and Jonathan and Rebecca and Samuel and Saul....they remembered a burning bush and a pillar of fire and Joshua and the walls of a city crumbling down, they remembered all these parts of their history....while assyrians forgot theirs? Why...how? Could it be because Hebrews kept that history alive through their language while we forgot ours BECAUSE we forgot our language? But wait, Aramaic was also THEIR language...they remembered their ancient history in the same Aramaic language we forgot OURS IN!

In fact, had the Jews not taken Abraham as their founder, WE would have never learned about him, because we never wrote a thing about him...we learned about him from the HEBREWS!

Why didn't we write down our ancient history in Aramaic? Aramaic was in use when the empire collapsed....why didn't Assyrians continue writing their history...why did everything disappear except what was salvaged by the Jews, in Aramaic, in their bible? Why weren't generations of Assyrian children, after the fall of empire, taught about their history, in Aramaic even....never mind in cuneiform? Or, if they were, when did that stop...and why, since Aramaic continued in use to this day? Why weren't assyrians, in all those centuries, repeating their own stories to their children....why, after assyrians became Christian, did they only have stories about themselves, from the Hebrew bible? Where were their OWN stories told?

assyrian children learned all about Noah, from the Hebrews.....where was any account of Napisishtun, the model for the much later Noah, from the Epic of Gilgamesh? How come Nestorian/assyrian children and their parents knew only of Noah....until the Euros uncovered the Epic and translated it and told them about the precursor to Noah....how come they didn't write down that story themselves and keep it alive all those centuries? Did they not take "pride" in their earlier version, which gave the Hebrews their model for Noah? How come ONLY Noah counted to "assyrians" for hundreds of years?

No wonder these guys can't stand still and talk....if you ask them about their assyrian claims they react with the same horror as if you were challenging their Jesus-claims...like you are a heretic for questioning ANYTHING and therefore deserves a response reserved for heretics...you must be ATTACKED because you are "evil" and of the devil....no wonder the assholes can't afford risking any education BUT math and science and medicine and engineering and accounting....because in those disciplines there is ONE side....one answer....2+2= 4 and always has and always will...there IS no "other side" to be considered and weighed against the evidence...they are safe in these fields of studies, they risk nothing.....it's another matter entirely when you study history and the Humanities...there you have to explore many sides, many possibilities...you have to use REASON and just learn things by memory, or carry around books of formulas which tell you how to respond to "problems".
