Pope Shenouda III
  • The world sees in our conduct, in our behaviour, the proof that we are the real children of God.

  • Homosexuality is against nature. Sexual expression is permitted only within marriage, between man and woman, male and female. Anything else is an abnormality and is against nature.

  • The Coptic Church respects the law but it does not accept rulings that go against the Bible and our freedom of religion.
