A question about the Coptic church and slavery?
I'm constantly debating religion with a coptic person and I am wondering whether the coptic church or individual clergy ever condoned slavery specifically. I was trying to research early america (if there were any coptic leaders here at all) and other times/places and have had no luck. I know this is a fairly arcane subject, but there u go.
All of their pronouncements are in arabic so i am unable to research their old official statements.
