The Monastery of the Holy Virgin Mary, also known as the Muharraq Monastery, was forced to cancel Sunday mass this week. It was the first time the monastery cancelled mass in 1600 years. The monastery lies on the path of the flight of the Holy Family in Egypt.
The Muslim Brotherhood torched the holy monastery last week.
Father Silvanus Lutfi, pastor of the Monastery of the Virgin Mary, announced, “We did not hold Sunday Mass for the first time of the life of the monastery 1600 years ago.”
Tour Egypt has more on this historic monastery and holy site.

When muslim armies spread across North Africa (killing while spreading the religion of peace), they also destroyed the ancient library at Alexandria.
In 642 AD, Alexandria was captured by the Muslim army of Amr ibn al `Aas. Amr writes to Caliph Omar, the second Caliph of Rashidun Caliphate, for instructions, and Omar replies: "If those books are in agreement with the Quran, we have no need of them; and if these are opposed to the Quran, destroy them."
...and tradition is a powerful force.Last edited by marv; 08-19-2013 at 02:54 PM.

Hmm.
Christians allowed to practice in Iraq 2001. GWOT Iraq occupation, and they are crucified, run out and there are virtually none left. Most went to Syria......which leads to
Christians in Syria circa 2010. US government funded Al Qaeda rebels now threatening all religions except Holy Islam.
Christians allowed to practice in Egypt 2010. US government funded coup and now Christians on the run monestaries devasted.
Seeing a pattern? Get in bed with the devil and you reap what you sow.
But then our Federal government isn't run by real Christians either.Gun Control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound - Unknown

I would say that hussein is not the first African-American president, but the ONLY Black-Muslim president this nation will EVER have.

Egypt was one of the earliest Christian centers and the book of Matthew seems to have emerged from a Jewish-Christian enclave there. The monastery system also seems to have originated in Egypt.
2000 years of history being washed away by bad White House policy. It reminds me of when the Mesopotamian antiquities were stolen during the early days of the Iraq war.

Now Al Qaeda is in power in Iraq, along with numerous other far more hostile factions. Since the outcome of removing Saddam was this inhereant fact, I guess its safe to assume that you got what you wished for as well?
These guys running around controlling Iraq now are far more hostile than Saddam....who if you remember was our "buddy" at one time. But short term memory loss about such things seems commonplace among some people.
