    They have been very hospitable to Armenians. I appreciate this.
    Even though I hate Islam, I do not harbor any ethnic hatred towards Arabic speaking peoples of the Middle East. I have a much more nuanced stance on the Middle East.

    Is modern Armenia a secular country?

    Armenian users, do you think this is a good idea for a topic on this forum?

    How secular is our country? Secularism means separation of religion from government.

    Secularism is the principle of the separation of government institutions and persons mandated to represent the state from religious institutions and religious dignitaries.

    One manifestation of secularism is asserting the right to be free from religious rule and teachings, or, in a state declared to be neutral on matters of belief, from the imposition by government of religion or religious practices upon its people.

    Another manifestation of secularism is the view that public activities and decisions, especially political ones, should be uninfluenced by religious beliefs and/or practices.

    Do you sense any Christian bias by the way I argue for my country?

    If you ever consider visiting Armenia, I'd recommend you visit Sevan and Jermuk, and of course our capital city, the best hotels are there.

    Sevan (Armenian: Սևան), is a town and popular resort in Armenia, located in the Gegharkunik Province on the northwestern shores of Lake Sevan. The town is located at a height of more than 1,925 metres (6,316 feet) above sea level, 65 km (40 mi) northeast of the capital Yerevan, and 35 km (22 mi) north of Gavar, the administrative centre of Gegharkunik Province. The town is surrounded by Sevan National Park, which extend from the northeastern parts of the town to the southwest, while Lake Sevan forms the natural border of the city to the east.

    As of the 2011 census, the population of the town was 19,229. However, as per the 2016 official estimate, the population of Sevan is 19,200.

    Jermuk (Armenian: Ջերմուկ) is a mountain spa town in the southern Armenian province of Vayots Dzor Province, 53 km east of the provincial capital Yeghegnadzor. It was a popular destination during the Soviet era and nowadays is still famous for its hot springs and mineral water brands bottled in the town. It is attractive for its fresh air, waterfalls, artificial lakes, walking trails, the surrounding forests and mineral water pools. The town is being redeveloped to become a modern centre of tourism and health services. Jermuk is also being set up to become a major Chess centre, with numerous chess international tournaments scheduled in the town.

    As of the 2011 census, the population of the town is 4,628. The nearby village of Kechut (pop. 1,083) is also part of the municipality (community) of Jermuk.
