Paul man thankyou for all you have done and for being somewhat of a mentor to me on the Peshitta and how to deal with people. Thankyou for the wonderful work and the Gospels. The best Aramaic-English Gospels around!
I understand in a way your stance here. I also had a remarkable change recently, it is so easy to become disillusioned with religiousy type things. Seeing how crappy people are to each other and how people argue over doctrine, just because they see a certain verses differently. OMG how can you live like that? How could I live like that - I couldn't. Especially now with a whole lot of friends that don't exactly fit the Christian mould <!-- s

Maybe it was the forum that did it to you, the constant arguing and bullcrap from people, even me for which I am ashamed. This site would probably be better without a forum, or one which allows ONLY scholarly Peshitta discussion - no debates, Islam talk, theology etc
As for your site man, I would be happy to keep it warm for you for if you ever come back. I will host it, pay for the domain etc and you get final say on everything, I would keep it pretty much as is, even down to the logo if you want it kept there!!! I would like to add links, articles and the other Peshitta translations but again you have my word you get final say on all.
And I understand too how busy one can get and you probably don't get any recognition for that. I mean I am so busy with work and studies (medical school next year too!) and I don't even have a family of my own, and I feel so swamped sometimes. I can only do my little Peshitta and Bible studies pretty much every Saturday. You have kids man who need you to spend time with them, so it's all so easy to understand. Peace!
Love,
Chris
