"explain to us how a person can be Jewish AND Christian...or Christian AND Muslim...go ahead."
***This is idiotic Mr. Pancho and you are aware of this. Your question is contradictory ... one cannot belong to two faiths and worship and follow the faith's rules appropraitly at the same time.

"And when you´re done with that, explain how a person can be Muslim AND Assyrian...or Christian AND Assyrian."
***One can certainly be an Assyrian Christian, as all Assyrians, (i.e. those taht recognise that they are ethnically Assyrians) are. One can very easily be an Assyrian Muslim or an Assyrian Muslim or Buddist or Hindu or an Assyrian who follows any other religion. The Assyrian nationality is not a nation or an ethnicity which is confined to only one religion. This can clearly be seen with the conversion of Assyrians from paganism to Christianity in the city of Edessa.

"The name of the god people follow is put in their name for a REASON...it tells the world who they worship...you cannot therefore be both Christian and Assyrian, because you are including the names of TWO gods...and you were taught to be a Monotheist."
***This is a very clever attempt by you to insinuate that the name Assyrian, having in its roots in the name Ashur, is confined to the pagen religion or worship of Ashur and that due to this Assyrians (Ashuraye) can only worship Ashur. This is incorrect. How can you prove that the name of Ashur being in the root of the Assyrian name, means that we should only worship this God and that we cant follow/convert another religion. So, you can be Christian and Assyrian because Assyrians converted from their former pagan Gods to the Living Word of Christ and rightfully accepted Christianity as their religion. We do not worship two Gods, regardless of the fact that Ashur, the former religious figure of the Assyrians, is in the root name of the Assyrians. We are indeed monotheists.

"Take your time."
***If only there was more time in this awfully busy world.
