Coptic Orthodox Church: Christian faith rejects Violence

10/10/2011

The Coptic Orthodox Church said it was shocked by the violence outside the Maspero television building on Sunday 9/10/2011 in which a large number were killed and injured after participating in a peaceful march to express their problems.

Christian faith rejects violence, a statement issued by the Holy Synod of the Coptic Orthodox Church under Pope Shenouda II on Monday 10/10/2011said.

Strangers penetrated the march and committed the crimes for which the Copts were blamed, the Church said.

Copts do have problems that are constantly repeated without holding the aggressors accountable for their acts according to law or without realizing real solutions for these problems, it said.

The Synod called on all Copts to fast for three days as of Tuesday for peace to reign in Egypt.
