    Sensitive? I suppose that is a good excuse.

        But you're asking nonsensical questions. I cannot answer if you cannot formulate. If you disagree, tell me how should I answer the questions you are asking.

            Because they spoke one language the Pontians spoke Greek as did the Asia Minorists(Coastal Greeks).The 3rd group the Karamanlides spoke Turkish but as Orthodox Christians they aligned themselves with the Greek church rather the Armenian or Assyrian.

              That's a load of baloney. Most Christian Asians spoke Turkish when they arrived on the shores of Europe.

              They may have heard a Greek-speaking Orthodox priest talk but that is mostly as far as it got with the 'Hellenic' lingual knowledge.

              The population exchange by the modern Turkish and Greek republics were based on RELIGION, not language.

                  If you speak Greek that makes you a Greek? I guess I'm an American.

                      Perhaps they spoke Greek. I don't really know because unlike our Macedonian friends I have never been drawn by that subject since I only have a very slim interest in Greek history. However, the issue of them being populated in Macedonia at the expense of native Macedonians I do find more interesting.

                        Do you deny that Greeks lived in Macedonia throughout the ages??

                          In some small pockets in the south perhaps.

                              He already answered you Truth Bearer, he said pockets existed, which they may very well have, in other places in the Balkans also.

                              Stop looking for the desired answer you know you wont get.

                                By the way, Coastal Christians from Asia were one part of a much larger contingent of Christians in Asia who were shipped off to Europe.

                                What was the exact figure, 1.700.000 Christians from Asia? How many were coastal?
