I have no religion, and at times I wish all religions at the bottom of the sea. He is a weak ruler who needs religion to uphold his government; it is as if he would catch his people in a trap.

As fucked as it sounds, you’d hear something similar from half the politicians in America if you asked about the bible.

he is just cranking up islamism before the local elections because one of his islamist allies decided to go to the elections on their own so Erdogan doesn't wanna lose votes to them.

He should get Sharia law in Turkey then. But he wouldnt dare.

Do you know which country has Sharia? Greece, or at least the muslims in Greece(only in Thrace region), because 100+ years ago when treaties were signed with Turkey/Ottoman Empire, Greece agreed to let the muslims in Greece have Sharia law for family issues.

Because of this, the greek state assigns a Mufti(because he is a judge) while the muslim population in Greece obviously chooses their own Mufti(because he is a muslim priest). This has been a point of contention.

In fact, muslims in Greece werent even allowed to use normal greek law until a few years ago when the leftist government voted to give them the option.
