It is indeed unfortunate that the author felt it necessary to pollute the article with negative commentary on unrelated topics. I would assume that the arguments on Armenian and Catholic issues are completely irrelevant to the context of the article. She may as well have included her opinion on stuffed grape leaves. At least that would have not left the impression that we Turks have a "gripe" with Armenians or Catholics, which we do not.

I did not intend to provide negative commentary on Catholicism by posting this article, much less to offend. My purpose was to show the difference in attitude between Turkey past and present, and other countries with majority Muslim populations.

Thanks for alerting me to this post. The Turks seem to be a very enlightened and noble people.
