    "Sabse pehle aapne ghabrana nahi hai" and "Aache Din Ayenge". All politicians start with very humble promises. Notice, almost all of them promise "Jobs, Jobs Jobs". When that promise falls short, it is always either the "Nationalism" or "religion" that takes the forefront seat in governance. Iran's Khomeini came with the same promise. When that fell short, it was the "Dushman" and "Death-to-America" card which was played and you just showed what Iran was and what it became. Similarly, Erdogan's ascension in 2002/2003 was laced with very similar promise. But when it fell short, it was the Religion that becane the motto. What guarantee you have that tomorrow Kemal Kilicdargolu won't flip ???

    Whilst I agree with you on your views (as an ex-Muslim too) I just want to give you some background info. You also need to understand the experience our older generation went through during WW1, Ataturk's reign and the fall of the Ottomans.
    After losing so much in WW1, the Turks were going through a severe identity crisis because their Ottoman identity was destroyed leaving behind only their last remnants of land that were conquered in the name of the Islamic ideology against the Byzantines. By this time most of the Turks had already forgotten their original Tengrist religion (although some of the traditions are still being practiced). Plus identifying as Muslim meant that you still keep some connections with the other Islamic regions (even if they were the ones who played a key part in stabbing the Ottomans in the back, leading to the fall of their last Caliph and splitting the empire).
    Ataturk's method of implementing secularisation by force did not go well either even if he formed the Replublic of Turkey. Basically he mocked all religions, restricted people's rights to practice it (women were not allowed to wear hijab) and the way it had to be practiced (the adhan was called in Turkish instead of Arabic for example...), etc. Also after Turkey was formed, the value of the Turkish lira was so low that it made it into the Guiness World records for being the lowest in the world at that time.
    Come Erdogan and he brought some religious freedoms, improved the value of the currency and some quality of life in the country. Because the older generation don't forget and the opposing party to Erdogan are ...a bit incompetent, he keeps getting voted back. This is also why most of his policies appeal to the conservative older generation's ideals to keep him in power. Now with the recent earthquake, technology, tourism, Kurdish rebellion and the younger generations waking up, he knows he's losing his grip. So unless he changes his own ideals to become more secular he will eventually lose completely.

      Education is the best way. The more educated a country, the less the chance for them to be blindly superstitious and religious. And most importantly, in Islamic countries, education is given in madarsas and Islamic schools which again teaches Islam and it's greatness.
      First, we need to replace that by normal schools like rest of the world. That's the first them. Only then, can we make them understand that Islam is totally wrong and fake and man made.

    On a side note: I always cringe when people say that cracking down on alcohol is an infrigement of their civil liberties. Alcohol can be addictive and devastating. Honestly, cracking down on alcohol is not something I fear. Yes, we should fear for our right to speak out, to dress how we want, to believe what we want. But alcohol? In the grand scheme of things, it's not important.

      Yes, but if someone wants to drink they will. I have never been drunk in my 47 years but I brew my own alcohol (mead). Education is the key, well-educated people who have good jobs and happy lives rarely turn to drinking and they understand the issues with drinking too much (but again, anyone can at any time). There is nothing wrong with enjoying a glass of wine with a lovely dinner, or a beer with a BBQ.

      @@theastronomer5800 I'm not sure if you have understood my point or perhaps I wasn't clear enough, or maybe I haven't understood your reply. Either way, let me put my point another way. I drink alcohol. I'm not an alcoholic and neither am I in danger of harming my liver by drinking too much. I enjoy a drink now and again. But, when trying to argue about civil liberties, losing the right to drink alcohol is the last thing that should be argued because there are things far worse to lose than the pleasure of alcohol. And especially when you are appealing to muslims to vote for a more secular government.

It reminds me of the great Mughals... people seek peace! a job, a normal life without being forced to belong to a religion! free will is not there! when you showed the old photos, you had to explain why at the time women were free... still a story of politics behind... like the partition of certain countries... more politics! visionaries like Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, wanted a country at peace! and of course the extremists came and ended the peace! take care!

      Actually, it's the opposite. Turks are becoming irreligious. The conservative and oppressive administration with religion sauce of Erdoğan cause this. Erdogan uses religion as a shield for his politics. The majority of people over the age of 40 in Turkey are quite conservative, but atheism, deism or agnosticism skyrocketing among young Turks(generation z) born or raised under the 20-year rule of Erdoğan and his party. Also, nationalism is on the rise as a result of extreme Islamization and the effect of more than 10 million Arab refugees and illegal immigrants who came to the country. For this reason, there are many young Turks who turn to Tengrism, the old faith of our ancestors.

    Sorry Harris Sultan but as a Greek i can tell you that Erdogan surely pushes more into religious matters into the Turkish people but his opponents are nationalists and more fascists than Erdogan and his party. Have you seen lately the fascist speeches of Kemal Kilicdaroglu and his party about invading Greece since Erdogan is only threats and no actions, about what happened in Cyprus in 1974 and other matters like these? Here in Greece nobody likes Erdogan but i can ensure you that the people hope he stays as president just because they are afraid of Turkish nationalism with Kilicdaroglu and what will follow if he wins. Let me remind you that the Greek and Armenian genocides started out with the three Ottoman Pashas and were continued with the rise of nationalism of Kemal Ataturk. There is not always one side to see things which in your case is just religion, i thought as you said before that you are against nationalism but here i see you talking in favour of nationalists who like the Islamists also took part in horrible genocides of innocent people last century.

You are obsessively stick into history. You initiate the history by the Helenization period of Anatolia, Ageid, Cyprus etc, but when it comes to Turkification of same lands you began complaining about imperialism, invasion blah blah! so lets make a deal and leave the Anatolia to its "real" owners who are the Hitties and Luwians and Urartus before Greek invasion.
      Last words for the Cyprus; It was just a state of Ottomans for about 500 years like Texas to US. With the help of British,Texas became a free state, great, then decided to join Mexico, great, and finally begin to convert it a spanish land and begin the ethnic cleanization of Texian Americans(google Bloody Christmas in 1963 of Cyprus) After all when US conduct an operation to rescue the texian americans you begin to cry about invasion!

    The Origin of Hijab
    Narrated 'Aisha:
    The wives of the Prophet used to go to Al-Manasi, a vast open place (near Baqia at Medina) to answer the call of nature at night. 'Umar used to say to the Prophet "Let your wives be veiled," but Allah's Apostle did not do so. One night Sauda bint Zam'a the wife of the Prophet went out at 'Isha' time and she was a tall lady. 'Umar addressed her and said, "I have recognized you, O Sauda." He said so, as he desired eagerly that the verses of Al-Hijab (the observing of veils by the Muslim women) may be revealed. So Allah revealed the verses of "Al-Hijab" (A complete body cover excluding the eyes). Reference: Bukhari 1.4.148 or Sahih al-Bukhari 146
