>True Assyrian Thanksgiving celebration “Baouta d’Ninevaye or the Rogation of Ninevites”. This celebration is very important Assyrian tradition which must be noted for its historic, nationalistic, and spiritual significance and it is repeated every year at the end of three day fasting by most Assyrians worldwide.

..it is NOT an Assyrian celebration! It's a celebration of the forgiveness you can get from the Jewish god if you repent. In it the Ninevites are USED as the worst example of a sinful people...like even THEY can be forgiven if they repent. It has nothing to do with Assyrians other than using them...you people have again taken shit from the bible and tried to make candied yams of it.

>Assyrians from Illinois are very proud to take part and accommodate a church mass and celebration of breaking the fast with traditional & historical Assyrian meal “Harrisa” on the morning of Thursday, January 17th, 2008 at Assyrian Saint George Church “Mar Gewargis Sahda”, a member of the Holy Apostolic Catholic Assyrian Church of the East and on behalf of all Five ACOE Illinois parishes. Thereafter, the celebration continues again at AAA - Assyrian American Association “Shotapota” in the evening with Assyrian; “Harrisa”, DJ Music, and Dancing.

..these are CHRISTIAN rituals...they have nothing to do with Assyrians.

...bullshit. It's a Christian fast celebrated all over the world of yahwe's forgiveness...has nothing to do with Assyrians. Chump.
