The Coptic Egyptians have been more heinously persecuted than any other religion in history. If this poor family were Coptic, it would be no big deal to the entire Arab world.

See post #18. This may actually have something to do with their religious beliefs. Even more ugly, if that's possible.

Coptic is the same as the word as Egyptian... In their old language, by the way.

And, yes the Orthodox Christian Coptics are persecuted as are ALL Christians in Egypt including Protestants and Roman Catholic

At my Church, there was a nurse, who was also a missionary Baptist aide worker. She told us some really sad persecution stories from her brief time in that country.

I really think some muslim did these awful murders. Maybe even came all the way to the USA to do the deed.

The article mentioned the family worked to help to better the lives of fellow Christians back in Luxor, Egypt.

Arab world aka Global pain in the ash.

I heard today Saturns moon is 300 degrees below zero. I think this would be a good place to deep freeze all Christian and female hating arabs.
