The Egyptian Constitution in Article 1 states that Egypt is a republican democratic system based on citizenship. Citizenship is the relationship between the individual and his state, provided that all citizens are enjoy equality, coexistence and the democratic system through the laws approved by the Constitution. Citizenship in Egypt has gone through multiple stages, which led to the lack of full citizenship rights. However current political system is trying to reach full citizenship; it bears the consequences of the history of incomplete citizenship that the Egyptians faced for many years.

One of the newspapers published its headlines: Egypt Races Time With Recent Archaeological Discoveries . Egypt is one of the world s oldest civilization, and our ancestors and those who came after have left us relics and monuments, commemorating their existence, and great civilization at the time the rest of the world was properly trying to discover clothing. There was many eras in Egypt including Pharaonic Egypt, followed by Persian Egypt, and then the Ptolemies followed by the Romans. Great history that left its impact all over Egypt and the world is still amazed by its antiquities.

If you ever felt there was a decision should be made long time ago and who should make it didn t make it , it means with no doubts that its not taken because it didn t help in a certain way. Egypt went through very tough economic decision in the last 5 years and president Sisi keep telling Egyptian I can t increase your salaries because he claimed that he doesn t enough budget to increase salaries. Suddenly on March 29th, Sisi decided to increase all salaries for all governmental employee and he still didn t explain to us from he could find a budget for this increase suddenly especially with the amendments in the constitution that the parliament discuss for now. In conclusion, No doubt that every citizen needs this increase especially that inflation in Egypt reached its highest rates in decades, however, presidents of Egypt always just give when they need something.

The tragic accident that killed nearly fifty people in New Zealand is a humanitarian disaster by all means. Nobody can accept it, especially Christians, since such attack can only be driven by evil. The assailant being a Muslim who belong to ISIS in Turkey, or a racist atheist who declared his faith in the 73 pages published on his account on Facebook, can t belong to Christianity. If Muslims declare that ISIS don t represent Islam, how can a man who doesn t belong to Christianity represent it.

Sarah Mansour is an Egyptian Oil Engineer who was graduated from the Pioneer School in 2006 before she achieved her dream of being an oil engineer.

The true prayer is the awakening to the remembrance of God as it is written, "Watch and pray". When the mind wakes up, it doesn t go astray and prefers to stick to the Lord through prayers. Pope Tawadros II in his article entitled "Prayer is our strength" explained that short prayers should include the name of the Lord Jesus Christ unceasingly. Its basic words are: "My Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me the sinner".

Finally president Sisi ordered the government to withdraw the appeal from the court against and give the pension deserved to the old people. No doubt that this step is coming while we are close to amend the constitution so Sisi wants to get some support from the people in that difficult time.

At the world is celebrating the International Day of Happiness, I decided to write about happiness in the world. Happiness as we know is positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy. Religions apparently aim to achieve happiness in a way or another and this appears in Nirvana of Buddhism. In Advaita Vedanta of Hinduism, the ultimate goal of life is happiness. Serving God in Judaism is a way of happiness or simcha‎ "worship The Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs," (Psalm 100:2).

When we provide evidence that Christians have no hand at all in the events of terrorism, this is not a sign of weakness, but rather to demonstrate to the extremists that Chrsitianity teaches us love since God is love. I wonder about those who believe that God has ordered people to kill and hate like Wagdi Ghoniem, Borhami, Qaradawy, Mohamed Hassan and Howainy, who offend the faith that they preach since they only speak evil. God asked David, in both the Bible and Quraan, to judge fairly among the people. Then it is the job of people in charge to be fair in order to avoid punishment of God. However, the biggest challenge lies before the teachers and clergy who instruct other people.

New Zealand is one of the countries that have not experienced terrorist incidents since its foundation in 1907. It knows nothing a bout terrorism, anti-terrorism law, mass killing, laws that incite religious hatred and racism, and has never been afraid of Islamophobia, as the United Nations and the Islamic countries claimed. It rather allowed Muslims to establish mosques in its city, the Church of Christ. Moreover, it protected them and granted them asylum to save them from being persecuted in their countries. Members of the Security Council condemned the horrific and cowardly terrorist attack on the mosques of New Zealand on March 15th, 2019, during which 49 people were killed and dozens were injured. Members of the Security Council, headed by France at the current session, added in a statement that all countries have to combat by all means and in conformity with the Charter of the United Nations the threats to international peace and security. This was the pretext for establishing military alliances from countries and contracting them with armed groups established by states, just as Saudi Arabia and its alliances have made up the Islamic Army for the war on terror in Yemen. You have established the organization of the Islamic State in Iraq and al-Qaeda before it, which produced more than 11 terrorist organizations. The number of terrorist organizations established by Islamic countries and UN member states is much higher than that of countries Members of the United Nations. Shame on you to issue such statements since your motive of condemnation is the special benefit for the members of the Security Council.

Pope Shenouda III was a source of inspiration for Egyptian Copts with his prestige, courage, firmness and determination. He was an outstanding wise man whose knowledge was impressive. Moreover, he was funny and long suffering as well as very sensitive. During his period, the Church faced many conflicts and problems, but he treated them with wisdom and could manage the situation with the least amount of losses. His Holiness was stronger than all the events and all tribulations that descended upon the Church. During his time, the Church was stable and peaceful. Pope Shenouda was a brilliant politician who knew how and when to oppose and how to speak. His weekly sermon was expected every week by his beloved congregation. At certain time, he decided to lock himself in the monastery to pray, which raised the anger of President Sadat. His relationship with President Mubarak was good and based on common interests, whether political or religious. Pope Shenouda left his troubles to be carried by his successor Pope Tawadros, may God help him to bear such great burden, troubles and unrest.

After Saudi Arabia admitted killing The journalist jamal khashoggi will Egypt admit killing the Italian student Rogeny?

Rumors have spread on the social media that a number of bishops are moving against Pope Tawadros aiming to oust him. They explained that a number of bishops and clergy are secretly collecting signatures for that purpose. The murder of Bishop Epiphanius and sentencing 2 monks to death penalty was a strong debate and motivation to such campaign as well as claims that Pope Tawadros II was not elected fairly.

All religions, messengers and prophets agreed that peace is a constant of religions since they aim to achieve peace and security and to prevent all terrorism and violence. Throughout history, terrorism has used religion to cover its ugly face, which led to conflicts and wars and caused human tragedies all over the world. Peace is agreement, tolerance, coexistence, harmony and stability on local or international scale. It is a desirable situation that countries hold treaties in order to achieve peace.

The rule of law in our country means that the law is applied equally on the citizens. This law states that a wife can t get married to two people at once. In that case, she will be accused of adultery and getting married to two people. This is the case when the husband is a Muslim man, but when he is a Coptic Christian man, then the case is different. The Christian woman in our story decided to abandon her husband and her children and get married to a Muslim man. Now, she decided to return to her village and humiliate her husband and children under the protection of the law! This happens in the year 2019 which is a great insult for the rule of law and equality in Egypt.

Arab leaders dont give their people any chance to choose and they force them to accept what they want. From Sudan, Algeria, Syria to Egypt, there is no much choices people have. In Sudan, the president divided the country between North and south, trying to capture all the opposition and put then in the prison.

Ali Basha village in Minya is expected to be a witness on great tolerance or massive sectarian strife! Sectarian clashes are expected this time after a Muslim man and his wife who converted into Islam decided to return to the village and dwell in the house next to her family. 7 Coptic families in the village left their homes fearing potential attacks of the extremists, after her conversion was celebrated and praised by the extremists who enjoy taking pride in such conversion and insulted her family and their faith. Today, her father sent a letter to president Abdul Fattah al-Sisi asking him to prevent the return of his daughter, which is expected to ignite serious clashes. It is known that the situation in Upper Egypt and especially in Minya is not that good since we hear every now and then about some clashes between Muslims and Christians. Minya is a place where Coptic homes are attacked over rumors of romantic relationship between a Coptic man and a Muslim woman. Extremists break into houses and destroy them over rumors about turning it into churches. It also witnessed the very first demonstration refusing to appoint a Coptic governor. Now, we can’t expect the people to have such unprecedented tolerance and accept having their daughter staying in the home of a Muslim man agains their will, and reply with a smile on those who try to provoke them and mock them for such sensitive case which is taken as honor issue in that community.
