in the village there were only few tc families and their children visited as a result the greek school.
the church decided and forced the teachers to take out of the class the tc children during the classes of greek history and religion.
some tc parents did not like that and insisted that their children should participate in all classes. it doesnt matter if its greek historythey said.
the whole theme went to the bishop of paphos. (the highest priest in that area)
they told him, we have some tc kids that they would like to get baptised.
his anser was:
then tha vromiso ego tes kolymvithres mou.
i will not allow them to make our religion dirty.(or sth quite similar)

You see Viewpoint!
Even the GC bishops (commonly denominated as "billy-goats") were against the assimilation and disappearance of your community from Cyprus and they refrained from christening TC children.
Gc Bishop said,
I will not allow them to make our religion dirty.
isnt this discrimination??? proves what GC think of us, how degrading and insulting to our community, just another reason for us not being able to live together, your brainwashing Church....
