I've readed all your post, if it was worth answering i would answer...
It doesnt matter if muslims are %99 or %1 government's approach still must be hypothetical. Because even as a muslim i have the right to learn the content of the bible if i have the right to learn about Kuran. Got it?

Your question is exactly what I explained earlier, what I hate most is repeating myself.
I will re-paste it here so you probably can comprehend it.
The government of Turkey whose 99% of its inhabitants are Muslims are going to give all the other religions same opportunity?
It wouldn't harm me if they did so, but I doubt they will form Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism classes or Christian classes since people are Muslim, and want to learn about Islam, Qur'an and Muhammad (pbuh).
It is a progression to start with the significant ones at first, maybe other religions will follow after this first step. Everything happens step by step. No school can afford to teach 20 different religion, since there are not sufficent teachers to teach every respective religion. But starting with what 99% wants is not a bad idea in my head, later you can focus on the 0.1% and 0.3% minorities (in total 1%).
Maybe I need to simplify it for you: I have no problem if Hinduism or Buddhism or Judaism or Christinaity was being tough as elective subjects. I highly doubt there will be enough students from ordinary school's though who will want to learn these religions since people are simply just Muslim in Turkey, or at least 99% of it (94% according to deno, but it doesnt matter). This means, if a class got 30 students in avarage in Turkey, not even a single student would want to select any other religion besides what he believes (which is Islam). In every 3 classes (of 30 students each) maybe you will find 1 interested (in other religions besides Islam).
I can't believe how you can't calculate those simple and highly obvious matters instead of talking nonesense about "eveyone should have equal rights".
I hope you can understand the point after simplifying my point into bits.
And let me ask you a question now. Do you think this approach was wrong by the parliament?
@deno
as Zulkarneyn states, a very untrustworthy source. And I still don't see any 20 billion dollar thingy (even in this untrustworthy site).
