Coptic simply means Egyptian. Egypt was Christian. Times change.
This week we "celebrated" Remembrance Day, the day on which we remember all those lost during the Holocaust, 12 million lives, 6 million Jews and 6 million others, including Christians, disabled (both mental and physical), homosexuals, the sick and weak, anyone labeled an undesirable.
One hundred years ago, Armenian Christians were slaughtered.
This is an excellent brief history:

Not long ago, 21 Coptic Christian men were beheaded, on video, on the coast of Libya. They are a small representation of what is happening all over the Middle-East. Thousands of men, women, and children are being raped, stoned, and crucified.
Why are we allowing history to repeat itself?
I read an interview with a little girl who had lost everything. They asked her what she wanted to do to ISIS. She forgave them and hoped they'd come to know Jesus.
Do I live my faith?
