Can anybody tell me what the language used by the Assyrians? I've heard one Assyrian + Arabic song and I cant figured out the meaning of the Assyrian part.. it sounded Arabic but I dont know what the heck it was...
Some christians converted, many remained christians. Some married arabs... it didn't happen overnight, it took time. Just a few decades ago, the majority of the lebanese were christians, now 70% of the population are muslims.
and there is a very big Christian Lebanese community outside Lebanon, especially in Brazil (I've heard it's like 10,000,000 of them there)

Yes...there are about 10 000 000 people of lebanese descent outside Lebanon, they're not all christians though. A lot of them left Lebanon, in the 19th century and WWI...
I think Finniqis are the Amelechites. They were idol worshipers and their religion had reached Arabs in Mecca before prophet Muhammad was born. I heard that Orthodox Jew prayers too sounds like Arabic prayers. Those in Iraq call themselves Kaldani (Chaldean).

I have a question, do the Lebanese Sunnis and Lebanese Shi'is consider the Lebanese Druzes as Muslims?
Assyrian month is almost the same with Arabic month used in Syria and Lebanon, I just realized that. I'm not sure whether I transcribed them correctly.
