Relevant quote;

HRW says that blasphemy cases generally stem from "personal or unrelated disputes," and since the country's 2011 uprising, authorities have increasingly investigated complaints. While most of the cases involve alleged insults to Islam, HRW says that at least two men have been imprisoned for insulting Christianity.
Christians make up roughly 10% of Egypt's population.
Authorities have also been targeting atheists of late, according to HRW. Police in December shut down a Cairo cafe popular with suspected atheists, and District Administrative Chief Gamal Mohie told a news outlet that the shop was unlicensed and "popularly known as a place for Satan worship, rituals and dances," HRW reported.


It turns out Christianity and Islam have a lot in common, anti-homosexuality and anti-atheism laws have long been the proverbial "holy Grail" of American christian lobbyists too, only the constitution keeps laws identical to these Egyptian laws from being implemented in some states.

It seems christian and Islamic extremists do have a great deal in common.
