Neon Ghost retweetledi

Did you know? When Muslims invaded Egypt in the 8th century, they would kidnap Christian children and raise them as Muslims.
Because of this, parents started tattooing a small cross on their babies’ wrists, so that if they were ever kidnapped, they would never forget their Christian identity.
To this day, every Coptic Christian gets this tattoo at the age of 1, because the kidnappings never stopped.
