Turkish Protestants acting to fix Turkey's image - Turkish Daily News Jan 05, 2008
Attacks against Christians that have been widely covered by the European press have marred Turkey's image in the eyes of the Christian world, the association's chairman, Ertan Çevik, said in a written statement.
More studies of Christianity are needed in faculties of Theology and the Turkish community needs to be well informed, he said, adding that the Turkish nation knows little about Christianity and therefore research on Christianity in Theology Departments could help to fill the gaps.
Turkey's image was shattered with the recent attacks, Çevik said, explaining that as Turkish Christians they have religious freedom but need to declare this to the world in order to repair the image.
