Top Turkish religious official says Saint Paul Church should be reopened

Hurriyet Daily News: “‘We feel disturbed when we hear that a minaret has been banned in Europe. We should be protecting freedom of religion for different religions in our own territory. If we only approach religions from a security perspective, we will be unable to work this out,’ Ali Bardakoğlu said, calling for the Saint Paul Church in southern Turkey, which has been transformed into a museum, to be reopened as a church.”
