False, protests, letters, pressure on politicians will work. First, they give hope to Copts in Egypt, how do you think they would feel if they were out there dying while w…

If i am not mistaken, Saint Mark's was not established in the 60s....ilovesaintmark can confirm.

This will simply never happen.....not for the death of 23....heck not for the death of all…
Not really. There is one with Our Savior in Saint Gregory's. There is The Pantocrator in Saint Cyril's. There isn't one for Saint Basil and since it speaks to the Holy Trinity, there is one for the Trinty
Pope Kerrelos VI....student used to go to him for blessings before exams. So he used to take their books and mark a couple of pages from the to study from. The student found out that all the questions on the games came out of those pages he choose. …
I don't get why does this decision need a Synod decree to happen or not?! This is not a Church matter. The Bishops, out of their love they want to celebrate the occasion. The Pope out of his love to the people and what has been happening, does not w…

One thing to bring to your attention. We believe in THE ORTHODOX FAITH and not a Coptic Faith. Simply saying Coptic Faith you are advocating what you are trying to change in your argument: the openness to accept other members from from other culture…
