Those that gave you Christianity gave me Islam, same people two religions. People of Ottoman Constantinople are Muslim converts from Orthodoxy.

Mehmed II Fatih was Half Greek Half Serb, you can judge him for not being Orthodox... but who cares... people are free to pick whatever they want.

You say anatolian muslims "ruined" Christianity, well.... Constantine and Justinian ruined Roman pagan religion as well... every religion ruins previous one.

They are like Montenegrins, south Slavs, Bulgarians but muslim. They are the only normal Slavic muslims in the Balkans because they weren't brainwashed with the fake "Bosniak nation" propaganda like the muslims in Bosnia and Sandzak were after WW2.

He descend from Komnenos line of John II Komnenos brother Isaac.

Son of Isaac Komnenos also named John was a grand father of Osman Ghazi.

John Komnenos later nicknamed "Celebi" after he converted to Islam was known Tzepeles Celebi.

Demetrios Chalkondyles wrote and confirmed that Mehmed II was GREEK.

It is confirmed on FTDNA forum that Ottoman Sultans were J2a

Tzepeles Celebi (John Komnenos) Married the Daughter of Mesud I (Turk) Danshimend Turk.

But that's nothing strange since Leo the Khazar (Roman Emperor) had a Turko-Greek family.

I hate being compared with Russians and Poles, not because I have something against those people, but because I am not of those people.

Don't know how in Serbia, in Russia was baptized with the sword. Some areas of Russia resisted Christianity until the 13th - 14th century.

You're right that you have nothing to do with the Russian Balto-Veneds, that's right. But Russia sympathizes with Serbia because Russians always protect and sympathize with the weak.

But you can't deny level of primitivism in Ottomans compared with European achievements in eg. 18, 19 century and how much that devastated Serbia. While Serbs under Habsburgs in Vojvodina were get education in Viena in the same time Serbs from Central Serbia were slaughter with Ottomans.

Gorani's and Pomaks could be same ethnic, just living in different religions. Both are South Slav and Muslim.

Same meta- ethnicity, not ethnicity
