The article discusses the Coptic Orthodox Church’s disagreements with Waṭanī newspaper and its intention to issue several newspapers that address church’s issues.
The author argues that the new newspaper that Bishop Bīshūy intends to issue will ignite crisis within Coptic circles. He believes that Bishop Bīshūy will use it as a platform to present himself as an alternative to Pope Shenouda.
Bishop Bīshūy’s position in the Coptic Orthodox Church is causing controversy in Coptic circles as he not only holds several offices, but is also Pope Shenouda’s sole envoy to all international forums.
The article is based on a file that was issued by Rose al-Yūsuf magazine on the role held by religious men in both Christianity and Islam in society, and their disputes with each other.
The author questions why the pope feels that educated Christians should not talk about church affairs unless they obtain his permission, and wonders whether they should all be servants to the church to ensure that they are qualified enough to talk to the media.
