An extremely gifted British Syriacist explains his conversion from the Church of England to the Syriac Orthodox Church. Similar to Jaroslav Pelikan (Lutheran-to-Byzantium), Dr. Sebastian Brock, very late in life, finally pulled himself in with the rope that he had been feeling thrown at him for decades in researching the early Church.
For Brock, he simply could not join together with the historic Byzantine Church, i.e., the Romans, because of their anathematization of Severus of Antioch, the great rejector of the Synod of Chalcedon and the acclaimed theological heir of Athanasius, Cyril, and Dioscoros.

The fact Kurds do this to lie just tells you how insane they are.
Look at the first image: the man isn't even Assyrian. That is Alexander Nayis, a Swedish local politician for the Christian Democrats (Kristdemokraterna) in Huddinge, Sweden, standing with his wife Gabriella.
This Jurt literally went to a local Swedish political Facebook page, stole a picture of a politician and his wife, fabricated a completely deranged and illegal story about incest and slapped a random Excel spreadsheet next to it to make it look like "evidence."
They will fabricate the most heinous crimes imaginable, defame innocent people, and lie through their teeth just to score points against Assyrians. This is absolute peak Jurtistani desperation. They are so utterly destroyed in the historical, genetic, and linguistic debates that they have to invent literal crimes out of thin air to feel relevant. Pathological, mentally deranged liars.
By the way, Kurds have far more prostitutes, sell far more of their women, and have far more prostitution than any other ethnicity in Iraq, especially since this 2011 AFP report shows a Kurdish MP, Haza Sulaiman, fighting to literally legalize the sex trade in Kurdistan.
Why do Kurdish and Persian dna tests fit them into one label so that means they are one people and Kurds donβt exist then by your own logic. You guys donβt know I will weaponize your own logic against you.
Ancient Assyrians spoke Akkadian but shifted to Aramaic as the empire's lingua franca by the Neo-Assyrian period; modern Neo-Aramaic dialects descend from that. The language change does not equal population replacement.
Genetic studies show modern Assyrians form a distinct, endogamous northern Mesopotamian cluster with continuity to Iron Age samples from the region (e.g., Neo-Assyrian-era sites). They are distinguishable from both Kurds (more Zagros/Iranian-plateau affinity) and Armenians on Y-STR and autosomal data. Commercial tests often use broad labels that obscure this.
