I will do more researchon it. Thank for the update
Nowenuse:


Are you aware that Turkey (Anatolia) was largely occupied by Christian Byzantine (Greeks) and Armenians before the invasion of Turks from Central Asia?

Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Sudan e.t.c were all Christian nations before they became Islamized. In the Middle east, safe for Arabia, Iranians (Persia) are the only ones who switched directly from Zoroastrianism to Islam (without becoming Christians).
Even Arabia had large Christian populations before the spread of Islam.

Some nigerians think it is not possible to islamise this country. I dey laugh.

It’s impossible because we aren’t one tribe but a land filled with multiethnic group of people. This alone makes it difficult! Except you serious war! How many tribes the north fit fight at same time? Remember every tribe has one or two soldiers in the Nigeria army and if an all out war is declared! The Nigeria defense will be scattered and weak. Leaving the entire nation vulnerable for attacks from by scavengers neighboring countries.

No limeta.. Emperor Constantine, the Romans & Byzantians all came to Turkey and established Christianity.. then later the Ottomans who took over and established Islam.

Upon independence Turkey was declared Secular nation, just like Naija

What do you refer to as Christian nation?

Did Jesus Christ build a nation for Christians on earth?

Even counties that have cross symbol on their flag, don't you see non-Christian ruling them

Didn't the Bible warn us not to store treasure on earth

The only nation for Christians is HEAVEN

Go read your Revelations well

All this big cathedrals, camps etc will still be collected by Muslims and antichrist after rapture

Let's continue to look unto Christ and may we be saved.

I believe you meant to say Hisbulah (at the bolded) the militant group who want to implement sharia in Lebanon. Lebanon is the only Arab nation with large Christian population. Their leadership positions is divided among the Christian (President) and Muslim (prime minister). The Christians their put and a serious resistance to Islamic militant, if not they would have been overpowered and subjected to Islamic sharia.

Lol, Christians were in Mecca, Alepo, Alexandria, Damascus...all the major cities in the middle east. Yemen had Christian rulers at a time.

Christianity was a weak religion, unfortunately the Middle eastern people and Euroasians don't understand weakness.

The Byzantians came from West (I think Rome or Greece) and conqured/ruled the Land of Turkey called Anatolia. When they came they brought Christianity.

Christainity was never in Turkey before the Romans & Byzantians came. This knowledge should answer your other questions

Religion presently is used as a political tool by the political Elite/class.. as is done in other parts of the world, e.g Nigeria & recently France

Bro, I'm relating based on on-ground experience, not hear say or news.. hope u know what i mean wink

Nope it has been used as a political tool in France since the middle ages only in the 17th century did the French revolution try to topple the system.

People abuse anything/everything. There are pastors who abuse their positions as leaders of the church. May be the Government should regulate them too.

Nothing is impossible. It is very easy sef, without war. Just infiltrate the south with few moslem leaders, from there disenfranchise non Moslems from core leadership and economic power. Then impose subtle Islamic laws. Watch the way the people will rush to lean towards Islam in order to gain power and wealth.

That's the same way Christianity got itself to become what's known as present Christian countries. Things like that were not seen as sin then, it was necessary to help in propagating religions, Christianity and Islam are guilty of this that's y they're the two major religion now.

They conquered cities and established their culture especially in the Middle East .
You cannot just expect to bring a foreign and strange religion to overpower your forefathers doctrines without doing that with force.
So, let's stop seeing all these as being bad or something, both religion are guilty of it. War is holy then, it writes great history. Without war, most of us won't be a Muslim or Christian.

That's the reason Hinduism, Budhism, Ogun, Sango and co are only heard in their native land because they didn't propagate it through wars.
