hihihii unless, it has this phrase "the Turkish mosque of" in front of the name it is not a Turkish mosque.

The fact is it`s banned to call anything Turkish in greece, so you can`t have a Turkish mosque there.

no I just mean a mosque whose name is "Turkish mosque of whatever". it`s banned in Greece.

if you select a name from the drop down menu in the middle, you can see some ´non Turkish´    mosques..

Don´t you think that the problem here is the name of religion? There is Greek-Catholic Church but there´s not Turkish Islam. I´m sure if there was Turkish Islam there´d be Turkish mosques. There are no Polish Catholic churches in Turkey or Serbian Orthodox Churches either. You have Greek churches because that´s the name of RELIGION not COUNTRY

That`s exactly what I`m talking about. "non Turkish"

There isn`t a different sect called greek orthodox, an othodox is orthodox. you can see lot`s of armenian orthodox churches too in Turkey. does that mean there is a different sect called armenian Orthodoxy?

 Yes! In Istanbul there is the Armenian Orthodox Patriarchate (a beautiful building inside with gorgeous icons). You should learn more about your own country, Tami.

Edit: there are several ´sects´ of Orthodox churches: Russian, Serbian, Greek, Armenian, Bulgarian and probably more.

Nope, but there´s a huge denomination called Greek Catholic

from Wikipedia":

Greek Catholic Church is a term which refers to the Eastern Catholic Churches which follow the Byzantine (Constantinopolitan) liturgical tradition. It can also refer to the Roman Catholic Church in Greece.

I think also calling the mosques as ´Turkish mosque´ would be politically incorrect because Turk is the name of an ethnic group considered the people have been living there for a long time, possibly not pure Turks..

Why should they call it ´Turkish mosque´ and take the risk of  upsetting others?

ha ha.

Trudy and daydreamer, an orthodox is orthodox, and the partriarch of all the orthodox over the world is in Istanbul.

There is a Dutch chapel in Istanbul Trudy, does that mean the Dutch have a different religion?

The problem here is that Greece legally forbids calling a mosque or any other thing Turkish.

NOT true. The patriarch of the Syrian Orthodox church resides in Damascus, not in Istanbul. Sorry to disturb your view of the world, how lovely Istanbul is, it´s not always the center of the earth.

About that Dutch chapel, probably not, probably only protestant services in Dutch language though there IS a protestant sect called ´Dutch-reformed´ - quite different from other protestant churches.
