This is their land. Muslims took over. Virgin Mary and baby Jesus were there before any Muslims. Besides where do you expect them to go? Many of them fled the country long ago like myself and my family but not all can afford to flee and many others just can't get the right legal papers to leave.

The fact that they still live in Egypt proves that there's no such severe discrimination

The people you are talking about are Egyptians like me and everybody else. It is our land. I am not Christian and I left, I know other Mulsims and Christians who left for the same reasons. I know Mulsims and Christians who had the chance but didn't want to leave for the same reasons. .

it is their country . there are Moslems and Christians who prefer to stay at home no matter what difficulties they have .
5 :
because it's our home and terrorists won't beat us and force us to leave. we will stay and kick terrorists out, making our home better place cuz we love it very much.

many want to keep it hot,for political reasons mainly,,,that's how our gopvernment plans to keep"muslim brothers" under control,,,,then muslim brothers use it to gain more members,and the church to get more control on christians and to defend itself against the invasion of catholics,,,more christians are trying to use it to gain money,,,better jobs,,,financial help.,,,,realy ,those who want to keep it hot are more and more effective than those who want to solve these minor problems,,,it is all about building churchs and non christian people to get to be christians,,,not that hard if we want to solve it and let everyone does what he\she wants it is a free world.

Why don' t you ask an ACTUAL EGYPTIAN COPT this question? What do you think? do you think Copts are getting killed in the streets. Most Egyptians don't care who is Muslim and who is Christian, don't buy into the bullshit propaganda that American Copts who don't even live in Egypt start! Yes sometimes in areas of Upper Egypt there are problems, but those are with the uneducated farmers and people like that, and usually its not even about religion! My coptic Egyptian friends LAUGH about questions like this one you asked!! Goto Cairo or Alexandria and see all the Churches, all over Egypt... And by the way, ALL EGYPTIANS these days live under pretty bad conditions, if you don't have money in Egypt you live in horrible conditions DOESNT MATTER if your MUSLIM or CHRISTIAN...There are even Egyptian Jews by the way!!
