...what have we failed to repsond to? ashur says we also refuse to answer his points....as a child would do, he simply yells "you too!!!" when we point out that he has yet to answer any of several questions raised...questions which should be easy to answer, if he has any facts to back him up.

For instance he brought his silly map here and told us this proved Assyrians existed in Ottoman lands....we KNOW Nestorians existed, but the map proves nothing about actual Assyrians THEN existing in Pttoman lands.

We pointed out several reasons why this was not so.

1. As per ashur's own beliefs, Christians in Ottoman lands were second-class citizens, they were despised and persecuted and killed, regularly, JUST for their religion...therefore, if we are to believe that the cartoon drawn by a Euro actually shows an Assyrian, then obviously it must be a Muslim Assyrian...for no dirty Christian would receive such a place of honor, not, that is, if an Ottoman drew that map...but, if it was drawn by a Euro, maybe.

2. However, all this map does is prove the truth of what we are saying, that Euros INVENTED modern assyrians. By bring us a EURO ('Duh) ashur made OUR point, not his.

3. Every Christian on the planet, by the 17th century, knew all about the ancient Assyrians and where they once lived. Speed knew of Assyrians not from any Assyrians he KNEW, but from what he read in the bible. That he decided they must still be living in those lands, when he himself never left his home in Europe, is merely a conceit on his part...he had no first-hand knowledge that they still existed...none at all.

4. Had that map been drawn by an Ottoman Turk, then we might have something else...but it wasn't. It was drawn, from afar and from imagination, by a Euro, which is exactly what Dr Joseph says in his book i.e, that our modern existence is an invention of the Euros.

As far as I can tell that is the only piece of actual evidence ashur has brought here...and we answered it many times and at great mength, and we didn;t wait before doing so. The rest has all been opinions and rantings and bibles and capital letters etc. The fact that he brought that one piece of "evidence" means that ashur KNOWS evidence is needed...but the fact that he only brought that ONE piece, and no more, shows that even he knows there is hardly anything...and that the one he brought is no evidence at all, for his claims, but rather backs us up, ultimately discredits whatever it is ashur thinks with.

And now we've asked for another kind of evidence for another claim of his, that Islam forced its religion on Christians....we're still waiting for evidence for that............?

Maybe he could use the same map and tell us that since the assyrian is wearing a turban and long robes just like the other, Muslim, in the cartoon, that this PROVES Muslims forced their CLOTHING on us...and if their clothing why not their RELIGION?
