Praying with the Coptic people
1st February 2011
It is very ironic that one of the only mainstream news-media reports I have read about the plight of Coptic believers in Egypt was in the Baltimore Sun and it centered on the insights of people in — wait for it — Baltimore.
So it seems that the Copts are news in Baltimore, but not in Cairo. Go figure.
The Copts are what’s left of the original inhabitants of Egypt, displaced and suppressed by Arabs over the last 1400 years.
