1896: "This is the situation: Armenians are the nation;
the
Sultan and his soldiers are the devil’s scourge;
the
Anglo-Saxon race is the cold-hearted spectator."
Frances E. Willard
2007: "It is greatly consoling to us that the voice of justice
and righteousness
resounded louder than political and military interests
in the case of recognizing
the
Armenian Genocide, by Turks, in the United States
Congress." Karekin Catholicos

we have confidence in our own beliefs, we should not
fear freedom of thought," Turkish prime minister

Halloween came early for me
this year. I was going to write about Armenian
Nobility, instead with horror I ran into this
article.
Armenian women traded to Turks
for sexual exploitation. Armenian woman sold by
Armenians to Turks for sexual exploitation?
Unbelievable but true.

 Charles
Aznavour, world famous Franco-Armenian
singer-composer, was touring the United States in
the 70s. During an appearance on WNBC-TV Johnny
Carson "Tonight" show, Mr. Carson exclaimed how well
Mr. Aznavour had mastered the English language and
that, "now English is your second language." "No!"
answered Mr. Aznavour. Surprised, Mr. Carson asked,
how that was possible, at which Mr. Aznavour replied
that French was his second language. Mr. Carson
asked, if French is your second language what is the
first. "Armenian!" replied Mr. Aznavour. "I am
of Armenian descent and therefore my first language
is Armenian."

Our Faith

Armenia,
which embraced Christianity in 301, has
identified itself as the world's oldest
Christian nation.
Armenia became a Christian
nation more than a decade before the Roman
Empire was Christianized under the Emperor
Constantine.
The Armenian Church is often wrongly considered
an Eastern Orthodox church.
The Armenian Church
broke away from Christendom in 451 because it
disagreed with the Council of Chalcedon's
declaration that Christ had two natures, human
and divine.
