hay mazza i attend a protestant school its ok its pretty alright but i would like to learn about our faith but then agen i dont want to go to the coptic skool well kind of but no but yer during biblical studies at school i teach them about what we belive :) kind of turned into a fight last year a big 1 with the principal too :-[ o well yer thats about it ;)
hey im sorri, i didnt mean 2 offend or anythin i jus wanted 2 view "religious schools" sorri. like how it feels to go 2 a school surrounded by this one religion sorry again plz 4give me
i go to a catholic skool, altho i try hard to prove my points using the Bible! pfft, and the teachers go speechless at times... but ive stoped doing this. o welll.
yea i know wat u mean im a senior student in highscool, like thats wat we call it in australia- aniways wenever we have religion classes on christianity an i try to prove my point u see ppl jus giving you the eye tellin u 2 stop cus dey dont care
i go to a public school in a jewish community and everyday i hear thing said about my religion when i wear a cross ppl say"um dude you have a dead guy hanging from your neck" and some guy was like why do you wear a cross and i was liek because thats how jesus died on teh cross and he replied "if jesus got hitby a truck would you wear a truck" so i try my best to cope haha i wishi could go to a coptic orthodox school instead of ebing tempted to go to the winter formal id be un tempted to go to winter tasbeha haha\
If I got a comment like that I would probably kill the person who said it...jk jk When I was in Egypt people would say stuff similar t that, but I would start freaking out and yell at them real hard...ya, I'm kinda a bit sensitive with that kinda stuff...
you dont kill but school them...forgive them, but... but... if its as bad as what CopticChris434 says, then u better bust one for your brothers, sisters and Jesus!
Carry your Cross...make it clear and make sure the world can hear. "God forbid that i shouls glory except in the Cross of Christ" and then remember what St. Paul says to Timoth in 4:12 "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, bust set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity"...don't worry about answering them but do the sigh of the Cross on your lips and the Same God that said to Moses to go lead His people out of Pharoh's hands will also Glorify Himslef through you.

NICE!!! :);):D ;D good stuff girly yar not that xtreme over here. its worse nar jkz i dunno yea kindar
hey guys i go to a public school and i wish that I would have gone to a different school. i wish i could go to a catholic school somewhere where i can feel safe. i'm a coptic orthodox and going to this public school is very scary because just today there was a stabbing at our school in front of the school. so in conclusion i think that the public schools are not too safe unlike the non public schools.
Kind of weird because he lives in CANADA! That school is not too far from mine...maybe like 5 minutes driving. I have been going to a Catholic school my whole life, and I really like it. At least I'm getting some sort of religious background outside of the church lol...The only thing I didn't like in elementary school is when we were in grade 8, everyone was getting ready to be confirmed. I usually just sat there for the whole period doing nothing lol. I felt so left out :( But I'm sure IF there was a Coptic Orthodox school I would soooo choose that school over any other!

By the way, my friends do that too! lol...They're pretty respectful but they like to make jokes on some stuff. Biggest mistake I ever made is trying to tell them what we think about dating, now they think I have an arranged marriage or something haha, kind of funny to me lol...and when I'm fasting (only the group I sit with at lunch know) they always try to tempt me with non-fasting food lol. Another thing they find hard to grasp is how we're so close to our FOC's/priests, they think it's crazy lol...
To add onto my other post, Catholic schools might have small problems too. A few months ago, we were on lockdown because there was some sort of bomb threat. They wouldn't let us in or out of the school. They caught the guy but it was just a prank, although he did have a knife on him ??? Other then that my school isn't too bad.

Hey guys, this is kinda off topic, but has anyone heard any knews about the coptic schools. A while ago i heard Anba David talk about working towards a coptic school in the North East, but ever since i have barely heard any news of it. If anyone knows anything else please post. thnx.
i go to a baptist school but i checked protestant cuz that's what they're most closest to.. in my opinion i think baptist schools are really good. They actually TEACH the BIBLE. I used to go to a catholic school and i don't feel that they teach how to apply the Bible to everyday life and how important it is to have a relationship with Christ.
