Yes, you're right about it. I think they have just made a decision (or they are about to make) to remove this religion section on the identies which is a shame for a secular state. No one has asked me or my sister or my father while writing Islam on our identities and both my sister and my father are deists. I think it comes from the ottoman time because there were taxes for the non muslims.

And one more funny thing about my identity card, I don't know if it was done by mistake but on my previous identity card it was written "virgin". It must have been written "unmarried". The turkish words for these are "bakire" and "bekar", they are a bit similar, so I hope it was a mistake although I don't think.

Anyway, I think from now on we are more careful about these identity cards because the old ones are not appropriate for our republic.

Quoting lunila:

Her sabah doğan günes,bir sabah doğmaz oldu
Elleri ellerimden kayıp giden yıldız oldu
Gülünce ışık saçan ogözler yaşla doldu
Ağlama dönmez artık,
bir varmış bir yok oldu
Giderken biraktığı bütün renkler siyah oldu
üZülme anla artık belki
de huzur buldu.

Dursun zaman,dursun diyorsun da,oyun değıl ki yaşamak
Sen inanmasan da bir son var anla herkese inat

Duysun seni dönsün diyorsun da,oyun değil ki yaşmak

Yok bir çare bir anla,sakın uyanma,yillara inat...
