No to demolish the antiquarian church of St. Mary in Luxor since it stands out there for more than 100 years.

Part of the church was demolished before the revolution of January 25 provided that the rest of the church won t be demolished.

I believe the officials don t realize what is going on around them and how serious effect could it has on the Egyptians who has offered their homeland a lot for the sake of Egypt. We believe that the road was moved 11 meters to tough the church building leading to its demolition.
The officials who decided to demolish part of the church were told by the Copts that such partial demolition will lead to the demolition of the whole building including the 3 alters and the shrines of the martyrs. They replied: who cares! This was even more provoking to the Copts.
We support all mega projects for our country, but why should the officials refuse any alternative solutions to demolishing the church?
