I'm asking your reasons for not wanting Turkey to join that's all.
IMO it would be wrong to let them join today but I see nothing wrong in opening negociations with them. That can make them evolve in a positive enough way so that they meet the strict conditions necessary for them to join in 10-15 years from now.
There are very important things they'd have to change before I'd be ready to accept them in the EU but I believe they have the time, will and interests to do so, why not give them a chance? Especially since the EU can close the door at any time if conditions are not accepted.
I also think Turkey is not that backward compared to where Portugal or Greece were when the EU opened negociations with them.
