short answer is : coptic means Egyptian\n \nThe Arabs who invaded Egypt in, like the Greeks, had problems pronouncing the term, Aegypti, which means "Egyptian citizen". Essentially, they changed the word to Copti.\nwhich later became coptic in English\nOf course, at that time, Egypt was a Christian nation, so the term became limited to actual Egyptian Christians as the country became more and more Muslim. \n\ntoday coptic are about 10% of total population of Egypt\nmost of them are Orthodox (Coptic Orthodox)\nI am one of them :D

Politically, it is more Middle Eastern than African, because of the many diplomatic liaisions it has with other Arabic nations and Israel.\n\nThe Middle East is iconically seen as Arab(ian) so that is why Egypt is often classed as Middle Eastern, as it is also part of the Arab world. However, it is probably the only Arab-African nation, classified as in the Middle East, because of geographic location.

My research says it will be returned to the Egyptian authority after it is preserved. It was taken illegally from Egypt, kept in a shoe box and sold to the highest bidder.So legally it still belongs to them.\n Whether it impacts our faith is up to us. whether it affects the Catholic church? Who can say? I believe we have a voice to "Cry in the wilderness" about the way the Catholic church keeps alot of the ancient writings hidden from public knowledge. Maybe if we "Cry" loud and long enough the overwhelming volume will open the dusty vaults and let the light of knowing the truth in. Seek and you will find, much of todays Christian belief is questionable. How much is defined by what the Big Bad Catholic church has hidden from us we can only guess. Jesus axtolls us to 'Heed not that we be deceived.'It scares me to no end how we have already been so deceived

Well, that would require a 100 page essay to list all the differences, and a major history language.\n\nBoth would be preferred , at least by me, over Roman Orthodox, but I would say Coptic would be closer to what the church was like after Jesus' death/Resurrection.

Egyptian men are not the same, there is a great variety. Some are Muslim and range from very conservative to very liberal. Others are Christian and the same goes. You cannot categorize or stereotype how men from any place are. There will always be a vast range of differences.

yes...you are right... i live in Egypt,and the christians are not weak in Egypt,the Coptic are about 10% of the Egyptian people..but they have 20% of the Egyptian Nation income and the most rich man and family in Egypt are Christian (Saweires)...but most of them do not like to join the political life they prefer more to be successful in economy...but the bad thing some of the Coptic who live in USA or Canada try give false things about what happen in Egypt.i think they just want to gain more power.. but not all the Coptic people do that really...some of them..and of course the some political people of USA will not let this chance, they use that as a tool to make pressures on the government of Egypt....

The Coptic Church who separated Christianity in Ethiopia and established the Ethiopian church there and since then the Ethiopian church was a fellow to the Coptic church and her patriarch .\n\nuntil the 1990's where the Ethiopian church asked for Independence and the Coptic patriarch agreed and now it is independent church\n\nBut if you are asking about the difference in the faith, there is no difference at all.

About Egyptian Pyramids\n\nThere are no more famous ancient sites within Egypt, or for that matter elsewhere in the world, than the Great Pyramids at Giza. They are, without question, the icon most associated with the Egypt. They have been both the main destination for tourists, and a source of imaginative thought to the world for over three thousand years.\n\nHowever, there are actually over 100 pyramids in Egypt, many of which are relatively unknown to anyone who is not an ancient Egypt enthusiast. All but a very few are grouped around and near the City of Cairo, just south of the Nile Delta. Otherwise, only one royal pyramid is known in southern Egypt (at Abydos), that being the one built by Ahmose, founder of the 18th Dynasty and Egypt's New Kingdom. It may have also been the last royal pyramid built in Egypt. \n\nHence, major pyramids were not built throughout Egypt's ancient history. The Pyramid Age began with a burst of building, starting with the 3rd Dynasty reign of Djoser. Some of the early kings, most specifically Snefru, built more than one pyramid. Almost all of the kings added to their number through the end of the Middle Kingdom, with the possible exception of the First Intermediate Period between the Old and Middle Kingdoms. After the first Pharaoh of Egypt's New Kingdom, Ahmose, royal pyramid building by Egyptians ceased entirely. Somewhat abruptly the kings of the New Kingdom chose, rather than making their tombs completely obvious, to hide them in the hills of the West Bank of Thebes (modern Luxor). \n\nHowever, smaller pyramids were constructed, for example in the Deir el-Medina necropolis, by private individuals. The Late Period Nubians who ruled Egypt also built relatively small pyramids with much steeper sides, though these were in fact constructed in Nubia itself. This tradition was carried on in Nubia after these southern rulers lost control of Egypt, and eventually, more pyramids were actually built in Nubia than Egypt, though on a much smaller scale. \n\nOther pyramids in the world certainly exist, but their purpose, for the most part, was different than those of ancient Egypt. The most famous outside Egypt are probably those located in Mexico and to the south of Mexico, but these appear to have been built more as temples. In Egypt, all but a select few of the pyramids were built as tombs, sometimes to hold the physical body of a pharaoh (as well as other individuals), or to hold the soul of the deceased (as in the case of the small cult pyramids built next to the larger ones). Otherwise, the purpose of only a few small, regional stepped pyramids remains elusive. \n\nWhile pyramids were, for the most part, tombs for the Pharaohs of Egypt, one must nevertheless question the reason that Egyptian rulers chose this particular shape, and for that matter, why they built them so large. Today, we believe that they chose the shape in order to mimic the Benben, a pyramid shaped stone found in the earliest of temples, which itself is thought to symbolize the primeval mound from which the Egyptians believed life emerged. This also connected the pyramid to Re, the Sun God, as it was he, according to some of the ancient Egypt mythology, who rose from the primeval mound to create life. \n\nAs far the great size of many of the pyramids in Egypt, we can really only surmise that the Pharaohs were making a statement about their own power and perhaps, about the glory and strength of their country. However, it should also be remembered that many of the latter pyramids were not nearly as large as the Great Pyramids at Giza (and elsewhere).\n\nPyramids evolved. The first of them was not a perfectly formed pyramid. In fact, the first Pyramid we believe that was built in Egypt, that of Djoser, was not a true pyramid at all with smooth sides and a point at the top. Rather, its sides were stepped, and the top of the pyramid truncated with a flat surface (as best we know). As the Egyptian pyramids evolved, there wer
