Might be an Eye Opener. I think the Greeks invented slavery :lol: like everything else.


No they didn't invent it, but they did abandon it as a bad idea thousands of years ago.

So, what made the Turks think it was a good idea to resurrect it? .... after everyone else, also, decided it was a bad idea!


Read what Plato said about slavery. If it was good for the Greeks its damn well good for the others. :wink:


I was only responding to Yialoussa response. 'Seek and ye shall find'.


Yes, Plato ... some 2,300 years ago.

How does your name-dropping, justify those who practice slavery to this day?



When it suits you, you always quote the ancient Greeks. so..............

whats good for the goose............... :lol:


No, not when it "suits" me, but when it is justified, I would quote the ancient Greeks, or any other authority.

So Deniz, how does your quote justify what is practiced by Turks, so recently?

... or did you just make an error in simply attempting justification?



I do not justify it at all. I was pointing out to Yialoussa that it has been going on for eons.

Do you know the circumstances of these girls being 'sold'? or was it merely the 'dowry' system which makes it look like 'slave trade'. It needs to be researched. At least we know that modern (ok 16th Century- 19th Century) was meant to be a profitable venture en masse. 'The TCs girls' perhaps you could count them with the gigits of one hand. How widespread was it? any ideas?


Still trying to justify this practice .... :roll:

The ancients became the moderns ... and they do think so!

... or are you telling me the Turks live their life according to all Plato's moral rationalisms? .... as interpreted by them, of course!

Of course, you would be surprised at how many more rights those slaves in ancient times had, than some "free" women are afforded these days ....

The 'ancients' or the 'moderns'?

The 'Turks' simply followed suit dear. They did nothing that was strange to European nations of the time.

Soon, I will answer your questions and more, because my next phase involves human rights abuses in Greece with a special emphasis on minorities. :lol:

Start praying to the 12 gods of Olympus from now because you're gonna need all the help you can get... 8)


As long as you don't mind me calling you Pourgourides from now on. :wink:

Talking of the Greek Pantheon (or was that Roman?) the Gods of Olympus, who remembers the series on British TV, about the Olympian Gods and some events in Cyprus/Greece. Greek actors(perhaps Cypriot and a European lady whose name I forgot, (but at the tip of my tongue). A Greco/Italian type name she had. High cheeks bones and blonde (probably dyed).
