Maybe your logic is flawed. If these underground churches are so top secret, how do we know they exist and how do we count the converts?
I'm sorry, it doesn't add up. I wish it did, but it just doesn't. Copts are in a precarious position. Their only way to survive is to keep a low profile. This guy isn't helping.

God Bless this priest and what he is doing. It is true when there is oppression and that includes Muslim countries, the Christian churches tend to be underground, just like in the days of Rome. As far as 6 million Muslims leaving Islam, it is in different parts of the global south. God Bless those who honor the command of Christ to make disciples of all the nations.

I think many became Catholics rather than Coptic.

Pope Shenouda III reportedly announced his opposition to the station's broadcasts, and denied that the station was in any way connected with the Egyptian Church. [1]
Sadly, many of the eastern patriarchs who reside in majority-Muslim nations have been in the back-pocket of their governments for years.

And the copt here in america being so “brave” will sit safe and secure.
Copts have been killed here in the US by Muslims, including an entire family in New Jersey. For a Copt to do something like this while residing in Egypt, his bravery would be suicidal. Literally.

That's no way to live. The Copts, and all the Eastern Christians under the yoke of Islam, should fight for their God-given rights to practice their faith without the threat of death.

Thank you! My husband, from Jersey City where those murders took place, bought the police’s story, hook, line, and sinker...

Egypt can’t figure out what it’s own history should be. What’s surprising is that the guy got on at all. Someone’s head is going to roll...likely literally.
