I always claim that life in the US is much better than in Egypt. Therefore, I quiver and tremble when I encounter here what reminds me of Egypt. Sadly, there are few places and institutions (let me call them pockets) in the US where some people seem to function within an Egypt-like frame. Pockets where clarity and fairness are almost missing, while deception and pragmatism dominate. These pockets remind me of Egypt and my time there. Therefore, I can’t stand these pockets, they bring back terrible memories to my mind. At any rate, thank God they are still few today, but what about tomorrow?! I hope that the spirit of Egypt will not dominate this country and that Babylon will not replace the Church. As someone said, “America is great because America is good.” I hope Americans will continue to distinguish between good and evil, or soon, no one will be able to differentiate between America and Egypt.
