...but they're still mostly cowardly.... Someone's falacy on what you have to do for a living to be an Assyrian -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Beth Suryoyo Assyrian (Othuroyo) Forum -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written by S. Danno on 26 Feb 2006 05:26:18: Someone claims that the only way to truely be an real Assyrian is to be a sculptor. I disagree, just because that is what we most likely see in museums, it is not the only profession Assyrians were. ...never said that...I said there are FEW to No ways right now in which people can be professional Assyrians...you are all great amateurs though. There happen to be any number of ways to be a professional Jew...Canadian...German...but there is NO way to be a professional Assyrian...that's because we don't support those areas that COULD provide their practitioners with the financial backing and support so they could make a living...so many of them are forced to go work, as professionals, for Jews, Italians, Germans etc. There may be any number of Assyrian sculptors who are working for Germans...or for Hollywood making sculptures for movies...they are professional SCULPTORS who happen to be "Assyrian"....but STILL, they do not make their living from making Assyrian SCULPTURE. We have some singers etc who sing Assyrian songs...we have the great Ashur Bet sargis but we have seen to it that these people remain POOR...we insist on it...you know damn well if they got good at what they did to the point where the OUTSIDE world sat up and took notice..you'd immediately start tearing them DOWN...which is exactly what you bastards tried to do to me...because what you don't understand is that in order to go to New York or Los Angeles and compete against the very BEST the world has and NOT an Aprim who is babied by moderators...you CANNOT be expected to bow before the likes of a Nimrod, Bejan or the rest of your leeders. To make it out THERE...where the PROFESSIONS are...you have to break away from this assinine way you people have being "Assyrians"...god help us. ..you really MUST learn to read. They were mostly accountant, bookkeepers, ditchdiggers, doctors, politicians, scribes, actors, preists and preistesses, prostitutes, farmers, bakers, candlestick makers, fathers, mothers, clothe makers, soldiers, and yes sculptors and more. Yes maybe sculptors doing are of Ancient Assyrians SEEMS more Assyrian but they did their sculptures of their CURRENT people, so where are our Assyrian artists doing that... but we have some Assyrian writers doing that, talking about our recent history just like our ancestors wrote their then recent history on tablets and walls, and we have Assyrians worshipping and passing on their CURRENT beliefs just like our ancestors did. ...you see...in order to make the case that we are Assyrians TODAY...I decicded to start with the ancients...to bring us OUT of museums and into the modern era...I paid my tribute to the ancients..it took some time...because I had to meet STANDARDS..I wasn't being printed on my OWN desktop...I had to pass the SAME requirements anyone else would who wants to put a public monument IN PUBLIC..I had to meet the TOUGHEST standards..what you call our writers etc...have to meet NO standards but the ones they set..orr this uncultured community sets for them...try it OUTSIDE sometime..and see how your Aprims and Mars do. We don't have to follow the traditions of 3000 years ago to be Assyrian and if anything that is the least Assyrian thing for they were innovators and went out and got what they want, so our engineers, doctors, scientists, film makers, music makers, dancers, artists, writers and entrepenuers who are making what is Assyrian TODAY are indeed the real Assyrians and not the ones living in the past. If you use promoting the past of 3000 years ago through your profession as a mark of being a REAL Assyrian then all those Assyriologists from every ethnicity and religion mostly not Assyrian then are the REAL Assyrians and those archeologists who found those artifacts that some sculptors copy are more Assyrian than any of us. ...you got is ass backwards all the way...like I said...I wanted to set a benchmark...to state where we STARTED from and to get OTHERS to recognize that...right now the city of san Francoisco admits that we are the descendants of the ancients...but it doesn't stop there...more later...gotta run...the cops is here.... So I say no, being Assyrian is not stagnating in what we WERE 3000 years ago, but people makign what we ARE and have been recently like the authors Aprim, Malek, Donabed and others I have read... to ME, they are the REAL Assyrians representing... as those protecting and working for the Assyrians left in Assyria, those who keep our culture going through our language, dance, music, religion (and the past 2000 years of religion is just as important as the 1000 years of religion prior to it.. they are BOTH Assyrian for Assyrians lived and survived in it).
