Hi Truth.Seeker,

I'm not advocating writing "white"...I agree with you that this would be ridiculous. I'm advocating writing a term that Egyptians of all religious stripes would be comfortable with. I think "Egyptian" qualifies for that.

theophilos,

Fair enough. You can advocate that. Personally, I couldn't care less if Muslims are comfortable writing "Coptic" or not; I'll write it either way.

All I care to point out is that you cannot appeal to any kind of "system" when you advocate that. I have demonstrated that the Census is whack (and you have just called our current classification under it ridiculous).

From Truth.Seeker:Not me CS, again, you talked about genetics. How similar are your genes to Dick Cheney?
Leave my dad out of this.
