I have two male friends (older than myself) who have chosen this path. They are so much closer to the Lord, as a result. Although one of them complains to me of loneliness from time to time. Surely, the family doesn't take away from your service tow…

[quote author=Timothym link=topic=12376.msg146244#msg146244 date=1318996363] My mom started a tradition (which she inherited from her parents) when we were younger which was to gather together every evening for 10 minutes, 5 minutes of prayer, and 5…

God be with you, Peter. "Your yoke is sweet and your burden is light, My Lord Jesus, Help me." (Tasbeha)

To be honest, nothing more than the fact that Copts are referenced close to 10 times.

Interesting column in the NY Times.

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=12453.msg146166#msg146166 date=1318717565] U1, I read your piece, very nice. Except: There was one paragraph that was a quote from your pal from cyberspace--me--ilovesaintmark (in the flesh and electronics…

I wrote a piece on the unfortunate events in Egypt in my university's newspaper, the Daily Bruin. You can read it here. Disclaimer: You might not agree/like what I had to say. You may think that I should have said (X) instead of (Y), etc. These ar…

[quote author=ophadece link=topic=12453.msg146100#msg146100 date=1318596019] DEar Zoxsasi and John_S2000, I guess both returnorthodoxy and Unworthy1 are talking about the idealistic and absolutist way a Christian should be, and there is no question …

Legendary response, Cephas.

[quote author=ophadece link=topic=12453.msg146088#msg146088 date=1318576850] DEAr returnorthodoxy and Unworthy1, No one can deny that Jesus being asserted still instructed us about not paying back evil with evil, but what Cephas is getting at, from …

In Los Angeles, CA: "In response to the recent tragic events at Maspiro on October 9, 2011, in which several Copts were killed and scores more injured, various Coptic organizations are planning to stage a peaceful demonstration and protest in front…

[quote author=returnorthodoxy link=topic=12461.msg146066#msg146066 date=1318549105] Funny story... My friend was in an exam in a lecture hall, and a few rows down he could see the guy cheating. So he threw a pencil at him from on top. The kid gets u…

The world is unfair and our Lord promised us that we would have tribulations in it. But rest assured that our Lord is fair. Whatever sufferings you endure are counted in your favor when stand before the Judgment Seat. Let us be like the Lazarus …

I would blackmail him/her (joking!) What the Christian thing to do is a very hard question to answer. I await responses. In the meantime, I tend to think there is no ONE correct thing to do and that it depends on the specific situation.

Don't be sorry. You offered good advice and I'm sure someone benefited. It's just that if you followed a more recent thread of bigeee's you would have realized that your time would have been better spent on something else.

I don't think anyone is saying that they are violent but that some acted violently on that occasion. We are taught to turn the other cheek. We are taught to be radically different from the world. Of course, it is natural to return evil with evil. B…

I do think it is a stretch to think that out of the thousands of Copts not one was violent.

Let's please not resurrect old threads, especially this one!

No worries, Mary. I know there are too many to name. I was just referring to the "headline cases." Anyhow, I already got what I need - thanks!
-
I need someone to give me a quick run-down of the major attacks against Copts in Egypt over the past year (include 2010). This is urgent. Thanks!

Interesting read: Report of Egypt by the U.S. Dept. of State.

What exactly is a "shout-out box"? What's the function/purpose?
-
How does the government deflect attention from the violence against Copts? By sticking it to the Jews (LA Times Column)

Who are the candidates and where can I read up on them, ophadece?
-
Many good points, ophadece!

Just put a U.S. Zip code.

The U.S. will get involved when ITS interests are jeopardized. Do you they care about Libyans? They care about the OIL.
