However the Copts are not pets to give them the governor’s leftovers, President Mohammed Morsy has decided finally to give them a permission to build a church 17 years after they first applied for it. This shows the difficulty of getting a license to build a church, and the persecution of the Copts by both the former and the current regime.

Case of Demiana Abdul Nour had nothing to do with freedom of speech. She was a victim of misfortune and conflicts between the principal and young Islamic teachers supported by the Islamic parties that trade on religion and wronged a naïve girl in order to achieve their political interests.

Yes, it is the count down in weeks to a very important date or appointment in Egypt or for Egyptians or call it whatever you want the appointment is 30th. Of June or on the 1st anniversary of Morsy or Dr. Morsy or whoever he is who sat on the ruling sit of Egypt that like most Egyptians I reject as president I never voted for him neither acknowledge the fake results of voting!

Recently, President Morsi has announced that he approves the first church in his era for the Copts. But we should be careful here; this church is not from Morsi but for him. You might ask what does it mean for him? It means that Morsi wanted to tell the Copts, at this time especially, that he is tolerant although he doesn’t mean the Copts surely, but he means the international community. Coincidently he is traveling to London soon.

Any administration always needs to continuous update and development, or else it would become decayed. Church’s administration is not an exception and it needs management just like other business and organizational activities. That’s why Jesus Christ arranged the work of this foundation to be done and supervised by certain people who are called the clergy.

As a Muslim man, many fanatics usually ask me: How come you claim that the Bible is not distorted? They also accuse me of contradicting Islam after I had published my book “In the Quran and Sunnah .. Gospel is not distorted”. However, as a journalist, I only seek the truth even if they don't like it.

After a new dam has been established in Ethiopia with potential serious effects on Egypt, some people have been talking on behalf of the church. Some of them said that the presidency has invited pope Tawadros to intervene and solve the crisis. They added that the Coptic Church has solved a similar crisis before during Mubarak’s regime using its historical connections and spiritual authority.

It's known that Recep Tayyip Erdogan is a smart politician who came to power after many Islamic leaders including Necmettin Erbakan failed to overthrow the secular regime in Turkey. However, his disciple Erdogan has learnt the lesson and took several steps that enabled him to apply their Islamic vision in Turkey.

The past 48 hours had a 180 degree turn around events in the middle east! Turkish streets in terrible turmoil for a change and not Tunis, Libya, Egypt or Syria! Demonstrations crossed the Mediterranean Sea and left the African/Asian continents to Europe!

Angelina Jolie announced recently that she did a surgery removing her breasts due to a gene she could have according to her family history. I feel sorry for that and sympathize greatly with her. I can feel how much she is brave to make a decision like that. She was actually forced to make this decision. It is hard a decision for anyone to make especially since she is a famous woman.

It was a strange coincidence that all terrorist organizations listed on the official websites of Western countries (including al-Qaeda, Hamas, the Islamic group, Jihad group, Abu Sayyaf and other terrorist organizations) have something in common. You may find more information about such terrorist groups on the official websites of the U.S. Department of State

Many Egyptians talk about the participation of father Sergius in the revolution of 1919. They mention proudly his historic speech in Al-Azhar mosque to unite the Egyptians against the British occupation, which manifested the vital role of the clergy to unite their people against injustice and occupation.

She found herself suddenly a very famous Coptic girl. Deminana Abdul Nour is a young lady who works as a teacher in Luxor, and represent the persecuted Coptic Christians in Egypt.

“Egyptians enjoy the same rights” is a lie that many Egyptian officials say in each sectarian strife. However, I'ld like to tackle such claimed equality in building houses of worship.

Last week I talked of our respectful Egyptian Army and his leader pointing out and from away the abduction incident of seven (7) solders! The incident was 1 or 2 days fresh and a lot was said about it and around it already between rumours and facts you could not distinguish where the truth lies! News or rumours said :-

Iraq, Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Iran are all almost running out of Christians. Does anyone think this could be a hidden strategic plan to run the region out of Christians? I’m wondering, in Iraq, after the war with the United States, have Christians in Iraq began to be killed and murdered on purpose?

Since the Saints Church in Alexandria was bombed in 2011, Many churches have been attacked and burned in Egypt, and more is coming. This is frequently happened here for various reasons, such as: Searching for a claimed kidnapped Muslim girl (Church of Empapa and St. George Church in Wasti, Beni Suef) and hoping to release them from church custody!

Few days ago, we saw a video of a Syrian rebel cutting out and eating the heart of a dead government soldier in a horrific new propaganda stunt while shouting with his colleagues: “Allah Akbar”. Same slogan we hear while watching Syrian cities bombing as well as killing women and children in cold blood.

I’m not talking here about snakes, but about people who simulate them in thinking and harm. Sheikh Hazem Abu Ismail is one of the Snakes strains that came to Egypt with the Arab invaders. Such strain lives originally in the Arabian Peninsula and settled later in Egypt.

"People worship the weakness in Jesus Christ; however, they did not realize He was strong in every sense of power. Jesus was neither coward nor complainer, but so strong and even a rebel in many situations” said poet Gobran K. Gobran. Superficial understanding of sayings of Jesus Christ makes people think he encourages submission and servility, which is entirely untrue.

Minister of Defence General Abdel-Fattah Al-Sisi addressed six messages to various parties on Saturday while attending artillery training manoeuvres in the area classified militarily as the Central Zone.
