From the Coptic article: ““The Protestant circles I was in would say, ‘We are trying to be more like Jesus Christ,’” said Toni Svonavec, an elementary-school teacher in Maryland who was baptized in 2014. “But for me, that is exactly what the Coptic Church already has.””
Every church leader I’ve ever met claims to be “more like Christ” than the other churches. Most of them succeed in being more like the pharisees than like Christ.
I take it as a reminder never to confuse God with his followers. Human nature is what it is.

The article on the Coptic Church says, “By many cultural standards, it’s a demanding faith.”
Yeah. Copts have put up with a lot. Watch one speak for herself, and the Muslim news anchor’s reaction.
As far as PeTA goes…don’t those people have anything constructive they could be doing? Staring at the wall, twiddling their thumbs, watching Oprah by the hour…all they do is make anybody who wants to treat animals better look like a raving nutcase. And how was Naruto-the-macaque supposed to collect its royalties, and in what form? What’s the exchange rate between the US dollar and tropical fruits?
