Armenians are a people preserved and loved by God. We have been a genetic isolate for over 4,500 years, settled upon the Armenian highlands, beyond the birth of Christ, and beyond the Kingdom of St. David, past the time of Moses, towards the beginnings of redeemed humanity descending from the arc upon the peak of our Mount Ararat. While the accuracy of the specific year or century these occurred, scientific research supports the notion that Armenian DNA is isolated from the world as having a clean and direct lineage dating 4,500 years, which is precisely the time Noah descended from the arc, according to historians who settled on this range of time for the flood independently of research on the beginnings of the greater commonality and genetic isolation of Armenians.
We are a preserved artifact of humanity from the ages that precede the peoples of today, unlike other newer races and countries who have lost this direct lineage to their prehistoric ancestors.
Armenians have survived not only genocide, the raids of Mamluks following the crusades, but also the far more severe challenges of the Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age and of the medieval era, maintaining unity as no other race - being a “genetic island.” We are a prehistoric people. Do not mix with other races but maintain genetic continuity.
It goes without saying, we must guard our bloodline from outsiders, however it is nearly guaranteed we will continue to do so as those having traversed time and have made it thus far, for nothing can prevent the continuation of this unity.
When humanity looks upon an Armenian, they do not look upon a mere person but a predecessor of the modern world, a father of it. Hence, we are called Hayastan, a fatherland, for we are all rightly Hayrs, fathers of humanity, preserved descendants of the father of redeemed humanity, Noah, and of Hayk Nahabed.
