Has anyone ever met a person who considers himself an ethnic Bosniak while also belonging to the Orthodox faith? I've seen Croatian Orthodox churches, but no Bosniak ones. I've personally met an Orthodox Bosniak, but he was only one person.

Also, do you think there will ever, in the future, be a sizeable Orthodox Bosniak population?

I'm not sure of the Montenegrin church, but the Macedonian church has more history behind it then a Bosniak church ever would. Theodosius of Skopje, born in 1846 was a Macedonian Bulgarian priest who failed in creating a separate Macedonian church based on the old Ohrid Archbishoppric. My point is that the Bosniaks have no such history whatsoever to establish a separate church from the Serb church.

In saying this, I think the Bulgarian church should gain power over Macedonia as it once was.

They don't have history now, but obviously if some converted now, then in 300 years there would be a 'history' of Orthodox Bosniaks. I'm just asking whether people think it's possible that in some time in the future, could be a million years, could there be a significant population of Orthodox Bosniaks, like the Croats have?

I think the Macedonian Orthodox Church - Ohrid Archbishopric should be recognised as an autocephalous church, as it has been operating as such since 1967. Prior to that it was an independent church under the jurisdiction of the Serbian Church.

Either way it has a history stretching back to the 1100's. So to say the Orthodox Church has no basis there is garbage. Which I think was his point. It's not like Orthodoxy just vanished when Bosnians converted.

And likewise the Macedonian Church was under the Patriarchy of Constantinople and the Bulgarian Exarchate until 1967.

Chuvash are all Christians. And 30% of Tatars. Also Chuvash dont want any kind of indipendence. Same as majority of Tatars.
But who cares for them?
You just stated I am oxymoron. I am Bosnian Serb and Orthodox. (same like some 1,350,000 people)

Not to be confused with Bosniak.
This article is about the citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina. For other uses, see Bosnians (disambiguation).


Bosnians (Bosnian: Bosanci, Serbian: Босанци, Croatian: Bosanci) are people who reside in, or come from, Bosnia.

As you see entire world knows difference.

Well, we didn't had census for a long time so It's hard to say accurate data, you have Bosniaks of different faiths, but of course Bosniaks are mainly Muslims .
In census in Croatia last year, 31.479 people declared themselves as Bosniaks, 27. 595 of them as Muslims, 317 as Catholics and 293 as Orthodox.

It will be interesting to see what will happen in future with Bosnian Croats and Serbs who are loyal to Bosnia and consider Bosnia as their lovely state, they are minority but they exist, would they choose to stay declared Serbs and Croats or will become Catholic and Orthodox Bosniaks.

Bosnian Croat when he is born automatically get Croatian citizenship, so they care that Croatian national awareness stay strong in them.
I think that Bosnian Serbs don't have that privilege, but it doesn't really change anything.

Serbian Muslims are Muslims who live in Serbia. Are you asking about Muslim Serbs? There exists both but there are much more Serbian Muslims than Muslim Serbs.

Sandzak Bosniaks are huge Bosniaks patriots.
But of course you have on individual base Muslim Serbs, I mean what's so strange about it, there are certainly even some Buddhists and Hindus among Serbs, Croats and Bosniaks.

Not on a large scale level though because the Balkans is quite religious compared to other parts of Europe...

The ones in Montenegro count them as ethnic Montenegrins or something as well as Bosniaks and Muslims by nationality...

Some consider themselves Bosniak, others Slavic Muslim. However, they are more patriotic than those in Serbia (They love Montenegro more than Bosniaks in Serbia love Serbia).

Yes they should, but situation is different for Bosniaks in Serbia compared to Montenegro. Bosniaks are represented well and the law treats them equally in Montenegro. In Serbia it's a little different. Most live ok, but sometimes police refuse to get involved when a crime is committed against a Bosniak.

Has anyone ever met a person who considers himself an ethnic Bosniak while also belonging to the Orthodox faith? I've seen Croatian Orthodox churches, but no Bosniak ones. I've personally met an Orthodox Bosniak, but he was only one person.

Also, do you think there will ever, in the future, be a sizeable Orthodox Bosniak population?

Probably he was a Serb or his Mother was a Serb, Orthodox Bosniaks = Serbs.

We have converted our Orthodox and Bosnian Churches into Mosques.

Christianity WAS our religion but not anymore, those who remained Christians are called Serbs.

Muslim Serbs also are nowdays called Bosniaks.

Actually there are some. Bosnian patriots of Serb origin, of course.

Emir Kusturica was a Bosniak Muslim he become an Orthodox Serb.

So that means Bosniaks = Muslim Serbs and Croatians = Catholic Serbs.
