YOURSAY '…And going amok in enclosed areas when pork fart fills the air.'

'Holy water won't turn Muslims into Christians'

Hearty Malaysian: A Muslim with true understanding of his own faith has spoken without fear or favour; we need more Muslim like PAS' Parit Buntar MP Mujahid Yusof Rawa to stand up for the whole country to function according to the constitution.

 

Umno is not ignorant but chooses to stir the topic to split the country and inject fear into the Muslim masses in order to remain in power, at all costs.

 

Doc: Ah! Now I understand Perkasa and Jati leader Hasan Ali's Christian conspiracy theory on how the Christians are going to change Malaysia into a Christian state.

 

They are going to sprinkle holy water on Muslims and once they accidentally ingest it they are going to become subdued Christian zombies and thus the Christians are going to take over Malaysia.

Apache: Encik Muhajid, you are right. Otherwise, billions of people would been turned into Christians when they come into contact with rain water or drink water which originated from rain water (that originated from Christian areas).

Hold Awam Accountable: A teacher friend of mine in Penang took her students on a field trip to Georgetown's heritage sites and was shocked when her Muslim students refused to step inside the Khoo Kongsi for fear that it would make them less "Muslim". Muslim boys in a class said they did not want to mingle with Chinese boys because they had "pork sweat".

This nonsense will continue so long as the reasonable and enlightened Muslims amongst us say nothing, do nothing and pretend it's still okay.

Jiminy Qrikert: "Pork sweat"? Hilarious! Add to that pork breath, pork urine and pork fart. I can imagine these poor misled Malays going amok in any enclosed areas like a lift, bus or public toilet when pork fart fills the air with pork sweaters around. Not all Malays though, but only racist bigots and haters of pork sweaters. Hilarious!

NuckinFuts: If a non-Muslim wishes to become a Muslim, can he/she read up on the religion of Islam without reading or saying the 'A' word? So what happens during the ritual of conversion? I'm sure the non-Muslim will have to say the 'A' word during the ritual? Would those present during the ritual be going against the law by making the non-Muslim convert-to-be say the 'A' word?

Thinking Malaysian: The courts should not have asked whether 'Allah' is integral to the Christian faith, but rather whether Muslims have exclusive use to the term 'Allah', which incidentally predates Islam.

 

It would be like a court in England ruling that Muslims cannot use English as English is not integral to the Islamic faith, or Microsoft saying Muslims cannot use its software, as they are not integral to the Islamic faith too. What a joke.

Jiminy Qrikert: This is the true legacy of former PM Dr Mahathir Mohamad - making an entire race stupid. It took him 22 years to progressively stupefy the Malays, chipping away at their intelligence while force-feeding them with false confidence of superiority via ketuanan Melayu.

When he felt they were sufficiently dim-witted, he confidently proclaimed "Melayu mudah lupa". And so you have supposedly learned Malays feeding utter rubbish to their young to poison their minds against other races - ketuanan Melayu fuelled by stupidity.

MinahBulat : "Everything has its limit, but stupidity does not have limits". Sir, this quotation shall remains etched in the minds of Malaysians forever I hope. You have to excuse those uneducated Perkasa, Pekida and even that mufti chap.

 

However I hope your quote is understood by the three judges, Najib Abdul Razak, Muhyiddin Yassin, Mahathir and especially that MB of Kedah. This is in relation to the 'Allah' issue.

MCAidiot: Religion is dependent on faith and not words. Today if the word the Christians used is not 'Allah' but is 'Tuhan', are you going to ban 'Tuhan' as well? And in another 100 or 200 years should the word used be again 'Allah' are you going to ban both 'Allah' and 'Tuhan'?

Nonbeliever: People of a certain one religion can do no wrong. People of the other religions can do no right. This summarises the whole issue of the 'Allah' problem. Religious problems are now epidemic in Malaysia?

Sali Tambap: Whatever it is, we can talk until we are blue in the face, there is no justification whatsoever for one religion to tell another religion how they should worship and how to construct their theological belief.

 

It is just not right. What is yours is yours and what's mine is mine. If we have the same theology we would not be in different religions respectively.

Wow, I really wish the holy water can do such wonder! Thanks God we have Muslims here who are still sane enough to realise what is fiction and what's reality.

 

I thought Christians should be afraid of PAS and one needs only to go around the countryside to listen to BN politicians who put fear into non-Muslims about the extreme PAS politicians.

 

But if this is the extreme of PAS, I would anytime go for them rather than the racial politic of Umno.

Fairnsquare: What a nice country this would be if all Muslims, Christians and Sikhs join together and jointly protect the usage and sanctity of the 'Almighty Allah.'

Praying together with the highest respect for one another. Will not the Almighty be happy to see his children worshipping Him together with no hate or suspicion?

Never should we have let the politics enter the arena of faith and belief, and now we see the damage done with sermons that only fuel hatred and suspicion. Only the love for Him can save us.

People's Power > ABU: To all stakeholders, let's remind ourselves, do not allow ourselves to pay too much attention to the ongoing issues of 'race, religion and petty things' to side-track us from their core 'issues' of corruption, cheating, plundering of nation's wealth, price increases, the murder of Altantuya Shaariibuu, etc. etc.

 

Please keep the issues alive and mobilise the support of people's power. We should all 'focus' on the sins of the government to the people and country.

Netizen123: Aiya, In Malaysia anything can happen mah. If you see a temple suddenly you start to pray to Buddha or Lord Ganesh or if you see a church with a cross, to Jesus.  Don't forget. Malaysia Boleh!

1Melayu: Only Umno's Muslims would be taken in by these sorts of lies, as they are the ones who know how dumb their followers are.
