The Pagans were good people. The Christians & Muslims are vandals who destroyed much of the beautiful pagan civilization.

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

That's right, Islamists depends on only one book. The books that they are found contrary to their ideas, immediately tries to destroy them. That's why they want our country to implement a comprehensive internet censorship. The difficult times waiting for Turkey This is the footsteps of darkness. AKP, the Turk conservative party, try to come under whole society constant pressure. "Do not Touch My Internet!" action began by Turkish freethinkers. This is the protest against the fascist policies. Internet remains the only area where there was freedom of expression. AKP, the Turk conservative/religionist party, wants to seize the whole internet. A comprehensive internet censorship proposal was submitted to parliament and it is expected to be approved. By means of this law judges may be decided within 24 hours of censorship.

It was built as a church. Significantly, when the Turks conquered the city they did not destroy it but converted it to a mosque. +1 for the Turks. 
The booklover in me just died a little bit inside.
