When will the Turks go back to central Asia and leave Anatolian Greece and Armenia to their rightful Christian inhabitants?

When the Christians outbreed and outfight them, of course. How do you think it got to be “Turkiye” in the first place?

Great discovery by the archaeologists and all credit to them in finding St. Philip’s tomb. St. Philip was a Jewish believer and not a Roman Catholic, but he is part of the universal pool of all believers and he is greatly honored for his apostleship and life service to Christ his Lord and our Lord. No one in the first century talked about being a Roman Catholic: its not in the words of the Bible.

I wonder what the writings are that supposedly prove this is the tomb of Phillip. Is there a carving “Here lies Phillip, follower of the Christ?

When is Jesus due back? It will be right around then.

I’m not offering any opinion on what’s “rightful,” only on what is. Catawbas and Waxhaws could still be living here on my house lot in suburban Charlotte, NC, if they’d outbred and outfought people like me, 350 years ago.

No one in the first century talked about being a Roman Catholic: its not in the words of the Bible. And where in the article does it call him a "Roman Catholic"?
The term "Roman Catholic" does not appear in the Bible, but then neither does the word "Bible". And when Paul talks about "scripture", he isn't refering to the "New Testament" writings either.
The term "Roman Catholic" didn't appear until the great schism, so even "Roman Catholics" didn't refer to themselves as "Roman Catholics" for hundreds and hundreds of years.
So what is your point?

The expression ‘Roman Catholic’ is unique to English speaking countries and dates only to the early 17th century.

Genetically, I believe the "Turks" from Turkey are hardly "Turkic", not like the Uighurs or Kazakhs or Kirghiz. They are rather "Turkified" Armenians, Hittites, Greeks, Lydians, etc.
I think there was a study that showed that they are ethnically the same as the greeks and armenians
Likewise the Azerbaijanis are genetically and ethnically Irani though they speak a Turkic language.
It's interesting that "Turkey" became turkified by its Turkic elite while Bulgaria which had founders that had "Bulgar" Turkic blood, did not.
