Armienia was the first Christian country (i.e. officially adopted Christianity as national religion in the beginning of IV century). Christians (both Orthodox Armenian Church and other Christians) amount to approx. 95% of population.
On the sidenote, Armenian church has a great tradition, very oldschool, relies more on mysticism than Western versions.
They have a patriarchate also in Jerusalem. I've been there last year and Armenian priests, who have a custody of some holy places in Jerusalem, including Church of the Holy Sepulchre, are most scary mofos on the planet.

Suppossedly the priest was lost in a notoriously gay meeting spot by an overpass. He wandered into the marines Parking Garage nearby. The Marine said he didnt think the guy was a terrorist the Police who showed up did. They even called the bomb squad because the priest had a suit case with an Allah sticker on it.

such a great story

there is a percentage of armenians who are catholics and jehovah's witnesses. never met an armenian muslim. met a few athiests.
Christianity was invented in the USA. In a red state I think.
Inkareh64 -Family Jules - Mousasi was born in Iran but is of full Armenian heritage. And yes Armenians are infact Christian. Which is probably why his family left Iran to go to Holland to avoid religious persecution.
Armenians have more rights than muslims in Iran,,,, there only limitation is that they can't run for public office as freely! but your post is correct otherwise

I can confirm that this is true.
Iranian- Armenian (Armenian: ???????? Iranahay or Armenian: ????????? Parskahay, derived from ??? Hay "ethnic Armenian") or sometimes called Persian- Armenian are Iranian citizens of Armenian origin. Their number is about 100,000[2]. They mostly live in Tehran and Jolfa district. The Armenian-Iranians were very influential and active in the modernization of Iran during the 19th and 20th centuries. After the Iranian Revolution, many Armenians immigrated to Armenian diasporic communities in North America and Western Europe.Today the Armenians are Iran's largest Christian religious minority in Iran. Despite their cultural Armenian identity in Iran, no sizeable numbers of Armenian-Iranians hold Armenian citizenship.
who cares?
Fade2Bolivian -That's actually an interesting tidbit of history. It was a couple years before Constatine became emporer of Rome.303 - who cares?
some people
CDarwin - Armnian, Persian, Dutch...;)
One would think that the christian cross in itself, the cause of this thread, could be a hint of his religion.
Just a thought.
