In the last article I spoke about the Resurrection, and about it's deep meaning. I ended my article with the question, are you working to enjoy the moment of resurrection? If so, then that's what I want to focus on today. Many people, including myself, find that it's so hard to work on a spiritual life which will lead you to eternal life to enjoy it. I admit that it is really hard, just as Jesus said in the Bible, “Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat”

Resurrection is a deep word that we can contemplate with. While we are getting closer to Easter, we should seize the opportunity to think deeply upon the meaning of resurrection. In fact, the word "resurrection" gives us the hope for a better life. Imagine one day you are thinking about your fate after death, and you said to yourself, "There is no hope for me as long as I will die and this is my end." It must be so depressing when you have this feeling. One day one of my friends asked me how people will live in the eternal life. Will they feel bored after awhile? At this time, I told her that you are thinking this way because your mind is limited. You are measuring life in heaven with the same standard of your life on earth.

I would like to refresh your mind on the tragedy that took place in Afghanistan recently. A woman expressed her opinion, which really should be her right, through burning pages from the Koran. This poor woman was beaten, thrown from a roof, run over by a car, and then burned at a stake. Under what circumstances would this ever be acceptable? Where is the teaching of torture and burning, and all the heinous things that happened to her? This story makes me so upset, and honestly, I believe that justice needs to be served. Where are the perpetrators? What will happen to them? I don't think prison would be enough.

Ever wonder how much the President of each country makes? If you knew their salary, do you think your opinion of them would change? An article was recently released outlining the top salaries of prime ministers and presidents across the globe. No big surprise, Sisi did not make it. But the numbers that were revealed, however, were somewhat shocking, and not in a bad way. The US had the second highest pay rate for Obama, Stephen Harper of Canada coming in third. Who had the first? Singapore! Surprising right? I didn't see that coming. The reason I am mentioning salaries is because how do you quantify how much a leader should make? America's Obama makes $400,000 USD a year. When you think about it, it's not that much. Surgeons make up to $700,000 in the West. If money is not that motivating factor, than what pushes our leaders to do the best they can? When you think about Sisi, and all the accomplishments he's made, and all the work his group has put in to trying to restructure Egypt, what's it all worth? 45,000 Egyptian pounds a month? Is that too much? Is that too little? Take also into consideration, back in January he said he would donate half of that to the betterment of the economy.

I saw a picture on Facebook the other day that was really quite hilarious. I had all the leaders of Egypt and put their picture there. When it came to the Morsi Era, there was a picture of a monkey with sunglasses. I find it exceptionally funny, because whoever depicted Morsi as a monkey, was spot on in terms of the contribution he made to our country. Why am I talking about a picture of Morsi? What's the significance. The world saw Morsi as an animal that had no serious positive impact on the economy, political system, society or any other means. He was a president that was in every way mocked for all the ridiculous things he said.

I believe we are living in political hassle. We wake up everyday to find a new disaster that's not just bombs exploding, but also in a political meaning. The court last week declared that the election law is unconstitutional and 2 days after that incident, the court declared that the law that prevents expatriates from being a member in parliament is also unconstitutional.

The Massacare that happened to the 21 Martyrs in Lybia assures us of the double standard of the West towards us. I vivadly recall when "ISIS" killed the american man. The US decided the very next day to go in a war against ISIS. The UN, and the West supported what the US had done, however, when Egypt did the same thing, the UN did not support them. Now, the UN and the US believe a political solution is necessary. The question is, why didn't they believe in using a political solution for Syria? The West might be developed in regards to their industry, but I believe that the West is still developing in morally. The West is lost on the compass of human rights. When 12 French men were killed in France after 3 terrorists attaked the newspaper during a meeting, the whole West came to France to announce their soldirity with them. I believe what they did was a good action, but the question is why hasn't the West called for the same action when the Coptics were killed?

When you think about all the suffering that the Copts are going through right now, I can't help but remember the times of Jesus. Right now, we can't even imagine barbaric acts of killing. I look at the most recent tragedy, the beheading of the 21 Copts. I say to myself, "How could anybody in their right mind do such a terrible, unfathomable act?" And that's just it. These killers are not in their right mind. It has been said time after time how these people must be brainwashed. These criminals must not be right in the head.

It is no secret that everyday a new tragedy happens. We hear about this heartbreaking news over and over again. We have a nice dinner, and it's ruined with tragic news. We go out to a movie, and feel like we've lost our desire to have fun because of the situation we are in now. It seems all hope and joy is everyday destroyed by news of innocent people dying, or crazy psychos killing. When will this end? The problem is, realistically, the answer seems like "never." Because of the hopelessness of the above question, I am pushed to wonder, should we seek outside help for our current situation? Ok, now listen. The first thing we think about is how the US destroyed Iraq when they intervened. We must remember that the US had ulterior motives, they wanted that oil that Iraq had. Also, don't forget that, yes we pretty much hate the West, but there are so many other countries out there with the resources, and perhaps new ideas to rid us of our dilemma.

The Ex-Member of the NDP, Ahmad Ezz, announced recently that he intends to suggest himself as a candidate for the next parliamentiary elections. You can rest assured this step is a step in the direction back to the old regime and corrpution again. Egyptians made a revolution against corruption and now we can see corruption and corrupted people begin to appear again. Egyptians made a revolution against this regime and now we can see this regime returning in a new form. All Egyptians are asking now what is the point of the revolution if we back to same faces and the same corruption?

Anybody who has a right mind, or a "good head" on their shoulders would i'll ask the same question, "what is going to happen next?" We have witnessed the destruction of our beloved country by the hands of the Muslim Anybody who has a right mind, or a "good head" on their shoulders would i'll ask the same question, "what is going to happen next?" We have witnessed the destruction of our beloved country by the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood. It is not just us has to face tragedy. Look at Libya, Syria, Canada, France. Our livelihood as a nation has been forever changed because of the animalistic acts of Islamic fanatics.

It has been four years since the revolution of 2011. Looking back at all this time, I couldn't help but wonder, was it all worth it? Egypt has endured crazy tragedy, violence, and heartache since that day of the revolution on January 25, 2011. my issue is, I am one of those people who believe, perhaps mistakingly, that the January 25 revolution was not a revolution of the citizens of Egypt, but a hijacked revolution of Islam. Before you were quick to judge me, think about it. After the initial protest in Tahrir, numbers were dwindling, and spirits were falling. Of course, leave it to that pesky Muslim brotherhood to come in and give false promises and use bribery to get what they want.

With the tragedy that just recently happened in Paris, I want to talk about freedom. I will be the first to say that jokes concerning religion is a very sensitive subject. However, it is no secret that Christians and Jews and Muslims all take turns getting made fun of. Nobody has the right to make fun of your religion, but everyone has the right to say and express their opinions.

We, as Egyptians have recently witnessed a life-changing event in front of our eyes. This past Christmas the Copts had the honor of receiving Sisi in the Cathedral for midnight mass. Sisi is the first ever president to visit the cathedral to celebrate with the Copts a religious event. He came in gracefully and greeted the Pope with respect and was honored by what he saw.

Am I the only one who is disgusted with what is happening in Libya right now? I just watched the most heartbreaking video of the two girls whose family was murdered in Libya. The priest kept asking, "where is your parents" and the little girls kept responding with, "in heaven" How heartbreaking is that? Once again, Muslim fundamentalists are behind violent and dirty acts against the people around them. You think it was a coincidence that more Copts were just recently kidnapped? Here is my problem: Islam is a religion of violen

I would like to point out my appreciation for our President, Sisi. This may sound a little idealistic, and not reality, but I honestly believe that for the past year and a half, Sisi has made leaps and bounds in comparison to what Egypt was like during the reign of Morsi. We have had nothing but terrorism and protests every week. I mentioned in a previous article, that all we hear about is who was killed in Sinai, and how many protestors died in the violence in which they created.

In the last accident that happened to the Copt who was killed with his family and their little kid in Libya by a terrorist group refers to the chaos that Libya lives in and also refers to how much the Christians are a target to all terrorist groups everywhere. However, the terrorist groups not only target Christians all over the world but anyone who is different.

It seems like every time I read the news I see news about an extremist being killed by the military. I want to focus today on the amazing job our military is doing on exterminating the extremists and nobody is giving them their proper credit. The military are on a very important mission. They have been working for only God knows how long in that desert to fight for our country. And it seems as though nobody is really paying attention to their work, except for a few articles here and there.

Regardless of what was the resolution of the judge, we have an important question to ask. Is Mubarak innocent? I believe that he is not and not because he really ordered to kill the demonstrators but because he was leading a corrupted regime for 30 years.

We recently heard the news that Mubarak was acquitted of his charges. What I am wondering, however, is the reaction of the Egyptian people. Nobody can deny that Mubarak lead a terrible leadership through his dictatorship. However, as a see him now all I can picture is an old grandpa, needing rest and somebody to make him tea in front of the TV.

We hear bad news everyday. A tragedy, something violent, or some sad news. I would like to talk about whether or not the events that are happening in Egypt are being exaggerated by the media. Yes, nobody can deny that tragic events happen every day, but I feel as though the media is only focusing on the negatives happening rather than having a well-rounded news portrayal. In my experience, with witnessing how the media plays into an issue, or an event, at most times I believe the media can often make a situation worse.
