turkish culture is mostly based on islam, turkish government laws are western, by culture im talking about how average people live, but im also excluding alawis, majority of hardcore kemalists are alawis i heard.Please don't talk so much if you don't know anything about the culture of Turkey. Turkish culture is not only based on Islam sorry. The Turkish culture is a mosaic of Western, Turkic and Islamic culture.
ok... but im still wondering what is or was turkish culture before islam. what was turkey before islam? nothing.We have a unique culture and we are also proud of that. Many Turks in Western Turkey would laugh at you know as this region in Turkey is a secular kemalist stronghold.
besides an empire or two thousands of years ago but those empires aren't even worthy of being mentioned out side of turkey.
ok good for you, what do you have to be proud of anyways? islam gave you turks an identity and united you into a great country, it gave you istanbul.Turks are proud of their pre-Islamic culture unlike you guys
well shows how much you know about turkey lmao, do you even live in turkey? never mind turkey i know turkish people here in rochester ny who went home for arranged marriages, they might not happen in big cities in turkey but arranged marriages happen alot in turkey, i know dozens of turkish people here in rochester so bro don't lie to me about your culture and practices i know turkish people and their culture very good.it just shows that you don't have a clue about the culture of Turkish people if you think that we practice arranged marriages. We don't practice backward traditions like arranged marriages unlike you Pakistanis. We have arranged marriages yes but mostly in Kurdish regions like Southeastern Anatolia.
What's so bad to be secular anyway?Secular states were and will be always more progressive than radical Islamic states like Pakistan.
why are head scarfs banned in government buildings? whats progressive about that? turkey has been secular for almost a 100 years and it is still not considered developed.
look at greece it is considered a develop nation. turkey and greece were at the same level 100 years ago. why is turkey still behind? you see its not about being secular but being white non-muslims, all the white nations that are not muslims are developed because they help each other, turkey being a muslim nation is the same reason why EU didnt let you guys join!!!
look at iran and malaysia they are not secular but they are at the same level or better then turkey.
Turks can be very proud about their pre-Islamic time. We build many empires and we had even our own alphabet
Göktürks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Old Turkic alphabet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
what was turkey before islam took over?
if turkey has its own alphabet than why don't you people use it? why do you use latin alphabet?
