My Fellow Egyptians, what do you think if Egypt was the same 1400 years ago?

Don't you guys think that Egypt would be in a if it was a Coptic "Christian" Country, with all the treasures, the civilization and the excellent minded people? (Alexandria was the 2nd town in the world after Rome before the islamic invasion: History!)
Don't you think we would be a super power. We have been always self independent, creating our own civilization until it was forced to be integfeed with the middle eastern civilization to take our credit, however independent European states could imperialize the whole world.
I think we would be a super power. What do you think, don't be biased and remmeber: separate religion from the politics.

You mean if we stayed humiliated under Byzantine rule? No thanks! There was never a "Coptic" christian rule over this country so get over yourself.

actually early Coptic Christianity was exceptionally violent (watch the film Agora with Rachel Weiss), they massacred Egyptian Pagans and Egyptian Jews and worst of could be the Christian Crusade which massacred millions, so a Christian Egypt is not that ideal if we're talking details, i'd say that Egypt without the existence of Israel would have lowered the radicals in Egypt because their supporters use the Palestinian plight and I would also send all wahabist Salfi extremist maniacs to Saudi or Iran exactly where they belong then you'd see a astounding secular society that do not have maniacs that thrive in generating divisions without generating anything positive, i am still waiting for the Brotherhood or Salfi groups to generate /invent one particular light bulb instead of applying the poor and uneducated to gain a lot more election votes.

The truth is that islam came to stop the slavery of the coptic "christian" ppl , they were enslaved by the "i can't remember Byzantine or romans.Sth like that.
Why don't revise the era of the golden age of islam , i think it is the most civilized time ever !
Go read history.

Egypt was at it's highest under Islamic rule. What we witness now is an act of outrageous foreign manipulations into the Egyptian governmental assets; whether if it was of Islamic radical Takfeer wal hegra coming from el soud family in Saudi Arabia, Shiaa from Iran, Palestinian Hammas movements, and exceptionally Israeli hands all share the same attempt to tie this powerful beast down. If only we had a true patriotic leader we would have not been dragged into this situation we all come to live to witness. But it's never too late, Egypt fell aplenty of times through history only to rise stronger.

I noticed that three groups in this world have the same mentality and their craziness with the past and their rejections to multiculturalism. I am still glad that copts didn't step into the aryan crap the way persians did though.
1.The Persians In Iran who think they were blond before the arab invasion, they even believe in all the Aryan crap which even Europeans trashed it.
2. Crazy orthodox Ethiopians who think they are not black nor African and think they are Caucasians and white! Yes Ethiopians think they are different from blacks.
3. Crazy orthodox copts in Egypt who think they are the pure natives of Egypt though they are obvious too white to be true egyptian, only Nubians are the pure Egyptians. Face it coptic orthodox looks more like Romanians, Armenians and turks than ancient Egyptians. Nearly all copts has this Romanina looking eye.

Oh sorry you didn't study History pretty good
At the time when coptics rules Egypt (Romans) they've been torturing all Egyptians , Killing them and feeding them to Lions .
After the Invade of Amr Ibn elass (the Islamic invade of EGYPT) , every Egyptian welcomed it to get rid of the injustice of romans , Amr Ibn Elass didnt's touch a church , who entered islam welcome , but who kept his old religion he is safe in The country with his churches , money and family
At the islamic Empire , Europeans sent their students to Learn in Islamic Empire , Many sciences have been taken from Muslim scientists like Vision science of AlHassan Ibn ElHaitham
Europe at that Time was learning from Muslims Until the Muslim Rules started Gradually to Be away from Religion , to think only about themselves , about Money , Power , Throne , about how to collect more money and benefit
As in The Ottoman Empire , Rules only cared about Golden Plates and cups , clothes of Silk , Huge palaces , while the early rules of Islamic empires only knew Asceticism , they didnt want anything from the world except to Make Justice in the Empire and make the islam stronger
As I told you , the Weakness of islam came from the Love of the throne , that's why The islamic empires have been destroyed years ago
And now islamic presidents and Kings only care about themselves that's way the Revolutions happens
I went away the topic alittle bit just to explain my point of view
And AH before I leave , the Salafis and Muslim Brotherhood who claim to want to apply the Islamic Sharia , Knows nothing about Islam

I am really sure that you don't know much of our history

1400 years ago, Egypt was ruled by the romans, don't you know that they were stealing Egypt's treasures you are talking about? And don't you know that Muslims established one of the Greatest civilizations in the world that was the leader in the world for 7 centuries (Of course you don't know that Muslims ruled the area from Morocco to north India and from Armenia to middle Africa)? Also, European civilization was NEVER known in the medieval ages (known by Dark ages there)
In addition, Europeans gained scientific experience in all fields from Muslims (Don't you know about Yohan Muller ,for example , who translated many scientific books written by Muslim scientists and he was German? You can NOT deny this historical fact!) Romans destroyed The Library of Alexandria after Julio czar destroyed the Egyptian fleet near Alexandria? Muslims freed Egypt from the Roman cruel colonization that also existed in many areas! In addition, Romans treated Christians (especially in Egypt) in the most cruel and ruthless ways!

You may have knowledge about the Coptic Roman period in Egypt, but I am sure that you don't know about Islamic period in Egypt as much as your knowledge about it should be to talk about that issue

In the end, I want to say that I am Egyptian and very proud that Egypt is a part of the Islamic world, but I want to tell you that the Islamic world you are watching now is so different from that in the past and Islamic sharia is NOT applied in any country in the world NOW CORRECTLY (even with a percentage of 10%!!)
