Turkey’s Christians Face the Future with Reasons for Hope, Caution
Source excerpt
At the crossroads of East and West, Turkey, also known as Türkiye, is a secular state and a country many would consider at least semi-Western. And yet few places on earth have seen as drastic a decline in their Christian population. In just one century, Christians went from 20% of Turkey’s population to two-tenths of 1%. These are numbers you might expect from Iraq or North Korea or some other land of human rights travesty. But would you expect such numbers from Turkey? It wants to join the European Union. Its main city is so hip and cosmopolitan.
