Coptic Orthodox Church of
Alexandria
A wiki link on the subject can be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coptic_Orthodox_Church_of_Alexandria
There are many other links on Coptic
Christianity, too.
For those interested, the best I can
figure after Jesus came the Coptic Church, the Catholic Church, and then later another
offshoots under the banner of Protestant. Along the way the Gnostic Church got
involved too. Earlier a lot of religions borrowed ideas from Zoroaster (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoroastrianism),
too.
The intent of this post is to suggest
making up your own mind about what you believe and try practice, including
Coptic Christianity. As for me, the Golden Rule seems to permeate about every
church and religion throughout the world, both east and west in today's talk.
Common talk in the USA these days
often includes the word "charity". That idea can apply to the
individual, the Family, the Friends, and even the Community I guess.
I can imagine one's personal beliefs
and personal upbringing and examples are also a very good glue to help one
through their own difficult times, however that sorts out. This idea even
emotes the idea of morality.
Now there will not be a test, by the
way. Make up your own mind and beliefs.
By the way, I just today spent a lot of time in the woods,
and was most motivated by the beauty I observed.
