Deletion of posts....

Sep-04-2000 at 10:08 PM (UTC+3 Nineveh, Assyria)

Shlama all,

I have recently deleted some posts which violated the rules of this forum.

I dislike this, as I believe we should all be able to state our opinions. But a line must be drawn, and when our opinions are hurtful to another person or community, I believe that's were our privelege of posting on a moderated forum should end.

The is the first time I have had to do this, but I wanted everyone here to know that this type of thing will not be allowed to degrade the nature of this forum.

This project is very important to me, and above and beyond that, the scriptures are holy to me. In reverence to them, the Words of God, let us therefore be at peace with one another.

There will be no anti-Semitism, no anti-Muslim, no anti-Christian, no anti-ANYTHING remarks allowed on this forum.

I have deleted posts which have attacked Judaism, Islam and Catholicism....I believe I have been fair to all sides.

Also, when I spend time doing this type of thing, or helping to correct someone who has insulted another, it takes away from my time to translate.

I do not mind being involved in discussions in which I or others benefit, as this is part of my responsibility.

But to keep track of all the fighting which will take place on this forum in the future, would mean my project will be at least tripled in time.

If there are persons here willing to be moderators of this forum, please email me privately at dyounan@ce.mediaone.net

The only other option I have is to shut this forum down until the translation is complete, which would benefit no one.

For a reminder, this is the policy we all (including myself) must abide by:

Any posts which contain offensive, inappropriate, or insulting material directed at any person or community will be promptly removed, along with any replies to the original message. Repeat violators of this policy will have their IP addresses blocked from accessing this entire website.

Thank you for helping to make this forum a place where all can share and learn in a respectful and scholarly atmosphere.


Shlama w'Burkate,
Paul

Assyrian \ã-'sir-é-an\ adj or n (1998)   1:  descendants of the ancient empire of Ashur   2:  the Assyrians, although representing but one single nation as the direct heirs of the ancient Assyrian Empire, are now doctrinally divided, inter sese, into five principle ecclesiastically designated religious sects with their corresponding hierarchies and distinct church governments, namely, Church of the East, Chaldean, Maronite, Syriac Orthodox and Syriac Catholic.  These formal divisions had their origin in the 5th century of the Christian Era.  No one can coherently understand the Assyrians as a whole until he can distinguish that which is religion or church from that which is nation -- a matter which is particularly difficult for the people from the western world to understand; for in the East, by force of circumstances beyond their control, religion has been made, from time immemorial, virtually into a criterion of nationality.   3:  the Assyrians have been referred to as Aramaean, Aramaye, Ashuraya, Ashureen, Ashuri, Ashuroyo, Assyrio-Chaldean, Aturaya, Chaldean, Chaldo, ChaldoAssyrian, ChaldoAssyrio, Jacobite, Kaldany, Kaldu, Kasdu, Malabar, Maronite, Maronaya, Nestorian, Nestornaye, Oromoye, Suraya, Syriac, Syrian, Syriani, Suryoye, Suryoyo and Telkeffee. — Assyrianism verb

Aramaic \ar-é-'máik\ n (1998)   1:  a Semitic language which became the lingua franca of the Middle East during the ancient Assyrian empire.   2:  has been referred to as Neo-Aramaic, Neo-Syriac, Classical Syriac, Syriac, Suryoyo, Swadaya and Turoyo.
