Digital movement aims to create 'artificial religion' – President Erdogan

Turkish President Erdogan urges measures to protect Muslim values from being harmed by "digital belief systems." The move towards a digital-centric world seeks to create a new faith by harming the Abrahamic faiths, “especially Islam,” the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has warned. “The digital movement is striving to create a new artificial religion by targeting and undermining all Abrahamic religions, especially Islam,” Erdogan said in a speech on Tuesday at the 7th Religious Council in the Turkish capital Ankara. Erdogan also urged measures to protect Muslim values from falling into “digital belief systems.” ​​​​​​​“Urgent measures must be taken and implemented to protect all Muslim values against digital belief systems,” he added. ​​​​​​​
