Will you read the Quran in Armenian?

[Murtaza]

arent most rich people of ottomans are armenians, greeks or jews? So It looks like you guys benefited from these plunderers.

[radar]

truth hurts?
renissance happened mostly because of Arab philosophers' translations of ancient Greek scriptrs like Aristotheles, Platon. Not because of St. Augustine
You learned most of sciences from Muslims, come on even the world algebra comes from arabic el-cebir
Ibn-Sina's medicine book was the principle book at European Univercities for centuries, you must know these things, don't make me count.
You can compare the civilisation of Christians and Muslims by looking to Spain. Spain was an Islam country from 700's to 1492. Muslims, Jews and Christians lived in peace and prosperity at this era. Muslims built brilliant mosques, palaces, etc. And when Christians invaded Spain the first thing they did is to burn all the books. Then they destroyed all Islam masterpieces with vandalism. Only Alhambra palace and cordoba mosque could survive from this vandalism because Queen Isabel make Alhambra her own palace and cordoba mosque is converted to church. it is still used as church unlike hagia-sophia. And then Christians massacred and expelled all the Muslims and Jews. Remains converted to Christianity by force.
I can count many otherr examples for your "brilliant middle ages"

Another thing, it seems to me always funny and pathetic of Armenians' attmpt to show themselves as if they are part of European culture. What is your relationship with renaissance,etc.? You are a middle eastern nation.

[nakharar]

Why do you portray yourself as part of the Islamic civilization? Afterall all these people you have mentioned are Arabs.

Where do the Turks fit in?

[nakharar]

95% of Spanish population during the Muslim Era were Spanish Christians by the way. True the Muslim leaders there were benevolent and tolerant. But as soon as the reconquista started the Christians flocked to their Northern brothers. Blood is thicker than water.

You seemed to forget that the Ottomans used the Haghia Sophia as a mosque for 500 years. How very convenient of you to leave that part out isn't it? They also used the Imperial Byzantine Church of Haghia Irene as a horse stable. If you are so tolerant turn over the Haghia Sophia to its rightful owners: The Ecumenical Patriarch.

[Murtaza]

Nakharar, Greeks or other balkain races destroyed mosques, Spains converted some mosque to church. This is not something to brutal, kill all people.

If you are so tolerant turn over the Haghia Sophia to its rightful owners:

I accept changin it to mosque is not right decision, but know It was also mosque for 500 year. It is fine as muse.

Well Armenia historically has been on the cross-roads which contributed to the cultural diffusion and assimiliation of various peoples. Every European nation has their own culture, some are closer to each other than others, so the term "European culture" is stupid. Unless of coarse you mean occidental nations/culture, in which case Armenia is definitely part of the occidental world.

As far as "middle eastern". I do not relate or identify with middle east whatsoever, the caucasus yes, ME nope.

[skhara]

Nakharar, Greeks or other balkain races destroyed mosques,

No body invited those mosques in the first place.

[nakharar]

How come you always evade questions and resort to cheap shots when you can't come up with an intelligent answer. Whether you like it or not Armenians are part of the European cultural landscape if even on the periphery. Where did I say that the "Dark Ages" were brilliant. They were hardly brilliant, but wasn't like you put it in your infantile comment: When Christians were living at Dark Ages, living a primitive life without any science, art, philosopy, without city life, when Christians were barbaric bloody tribes who even do not know how to clean, at the same ages Islam was only civilised culture in the world. This is such a stupid sentence it requires no further comment.

[Murtaza]

Shaka dont be stupid, or at least dont be sooooo much stupid.
