    Asking an Egyptian if he/she considers him/herself African is just like asking an Indian if he considers himself ‘Asian’.

      Are u butt hurt African loooool who nobody care about , or are u Asian like philpino Indonesia China vitnamese ?? Cause from ur answer u know a lot , like indians who consider Asians but they are not Asians , Egypt most of them are like that doesn't interact with brown of them the brown of them are Nubia who is Sudanese lol who all look like ethiopeans eriterian who in all same region of east African to South Africa , it's like I know all of them now so the other part is Europeans and is hiding his origin by Arab or moslem , whole of north Africa are racist to religion but there racism has some view and point , because the other type like Christian are stuiped like them and Jew are killer or another type , that's there type this is the why the kick them to Israel. But for me that's he will make a mistake big one by lump us in one based on religion which is fault , u see the Europeans are the one inside Africa and Asia not the Arab , Arab are few , but to keep hating Arab or Indian that's there style and keep busy either on slavery drugs or money economic

They left Lebanon in the early 50's during civil strife, and settled in our Catholic, French speaking state.

    hate to be that person but: Egypt is in North Africa but it is considered as part of the Middle East since the middle east isn't a continent, but a term used to talk about Arabian (mostly) countries. Egypt is in Africa, Turkey is in Asia and bit in Europe, Saudi is in Asia, but all count as the middle east to facilitate talking. Long story short, being Egyptian means you're middle eastern.

    The Middle East was never confined to a single continent. It is a transcontinental geopolitical region and it includes Egypt in North Africa and Turkey in Eurasia. The rest of the region is situated in West Asia. It is not a landmass nor a continent. There was never a time when the Middle East was confined to a single continent. Uneducated people usually confuse the Middle East with a continent. Asia and Africa are continents, the Middle East isn’t. The Middle East’s geographical makeup is based on shared Politics culture and History rather than a shared continent. Also we don’t go by continents in the Arab world when it comes to ethnic identity, we go by regional identity instead, such as the Middle East and the Maghreb(Libya, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco) . Calling an Egyptian “African” is like calling an Iraqi “Asian”. Continental identity is flawed. For example, An Egyptian American doesn't identify as “African American” and an Iraqi American doesn't identify as “Asian American” but they both identify as Middle Eastern Americans or Arab Americans. “African American“ refers to Americans that are of subsaharan descent while “Asian American” refers to Americans of East Asian descent(sometimes south Asian descent is included)

      I'm super gentle... I get what you say about
      'trying to figure out' the world etc forever... But deciding that a religious super being or god thang is the answer is a complete cop out. Stories are great...philosophy too...religion goes too far in that it asserts an answer and a far fetched one.
      Sad that so many are corralled into their religious corner or 'box' simply by either their environmental or societal/familial factors (not wanting to ruffle feathers by >gasp< DOUBTING the far fetched BS).
      I am humble enough to admit that I don't know the answers to the universe or big questions.
      Religion proposes an arrogance that I do find offensive by stating unprovable and highly suspect claims. through my life journey ...I have certainly noticed ONE thing...a very high % of religious people I have encountered are often the most hypocritical and even shady and/or dishonest... I would truly be surprised even deep down Ramy Y buys into any of the dogma that has been trotted out through the years by his particular faith, I give him more credit than being THAT gullible.
      There is an infinite amount of more plausible possible explanations for the unknown than that which the 'holy books' have proposed through out the ages.

      @@autocyclist4062 religions can bring people together to do good. It also gives some people a much needed psychological relief. Honestly, I wish I was a believer. My life would have been much simpler to blame it on a higher power and to say it's what "God" wants. However, my mind is like yours. it doesn't settle and always wondering about the answers to these questions; it also doesn't accept that a magical being is in control of us. So for me, there are no easy answers!
      I was raised in a Muslim society. Most Muslim people are extremely kind-hearted, and generous people. I defend them because I have seen it with my own eyes. They are shunned and demonized by the western media which is not fair to them.
      You might want to check the Canadian motorcyclist Rosie Gabrielle, who converted to Islam after touring the Muslim countries and got to experience first hand what they are all about.
      In the end, there are no easy answers for us all. You and I and everyone else are doing the best we can with what life gave us.
      You might enjoy the Chaos and Reductionism lecture by Prof. Robert Sapolsky from Stanford. He helped me to understand why we have variations in our thinking and biology. Even though we are similar, we are vastly different and can't expect everyone to behave in the way we think they should. Maybe that's the beauty of life itself. It's orderly, yet chaotic at the same time.
      Peace to you and all living beings!
