.....Live and let live. There will always be ignorance in this world, afterall, most people have sheltered lives.Live and let live...The same thing applies....

Dr Who SG

Some issues like the one below should be settled by arbitration rather than in court....

It just shows one thing about the religion in question. The murder of Van Gogh, uproar over some cartoons and this shit, that those people place intangible objects such as some thing which they believe even though it makes no logical sense whatsoever over tangible objects like peoples' well-being.

Pl exercise your extreme care in this case,especially the trial is still on.

This is a religious issue about insulting other religion.

Did the couple target Muslims with the intentions to convert them?

I dunt know.

MDA is blocking the sites of Chick Productions,The Little Bride etc.

@@@@@@@@@@@

One thing is sure they sent the offensive booklets to Muslim.

How did they get the names and address?

How many have they sent?Pl note they had 439 copies of 11 tracts

in possession( in their home).

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

AG personal approval is needed to prosecute under this charge.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Leaders of Church and MUIS shall make a statement.

What are u talking about?

Few extremelists in IRA dunt represent all other Catholic.Right?

I think this apply to other religions.

2.Intangible and tangible.What are u talking about?

Dunt put your logic into other people heads.

Religion is religion.Full stop.

3.U have your rights to promote your religion,but there are some limits.

The limits are dunt make others feel offended!!

freedomclub SG

Well, for Islam, limits dont exist.

A Muslim can convert people from other religions but not vice versa.

A Christian or any other person from another religion except Islam can convert to another religion without much uproar but when a Muslim converts, it can lead to being disowned by their family or even death in some 7th Century bastion in the 21st Century.

lionnoisy SG

I find the followings in net which i find offensive:

Pray the charges against Ong and Dorothy will be dropped. Pray the Holy Spirit will cause them to forgive their persecutors. Pray for continued opportunities for Christians in Singapore to share the truth of Christ.

persecutors---they are prosecutor.This is not interfere with freedom of religion.

There are many ways to share the truth,but with a limit.

freedomclub SG

A limit such as not telling people something they're uncomfortable with so that they can continue blissfully erring in their ways. [Generalising here]

People, human beings are tangible objects (naturally you dont know that). Their lives are tangible. Unlike religions, which does not exist in physical space, the Law gives them a disproporationate amount of attention to placate them.

Infidels do not subscribe to Islam's rule of peace.

freedomclub SG

Right, Saudi society is built on the "rule of peace".

freedomclub SG

And if infidels dare to express views about Islam, like Van Gogh or Salman Rushdie, they get fucked up (pun unintended). If they want to draw some cartoons, they invite riots, flag-burning ceremonies and death.

webben SG

I don't get it. I'm comfortable with my religion. Curse it as you may, and I'll roll my eyes. Why should I care of your opinion?

freedomclub SG

Exactly. I cant prove the existence of a divine being, or disprove it. So why should what I say or distribute get me sued for fuck?

Unless you're saying that you believe in an all-powerful god who is powerless to defend his/her/its own reputation.

Actually... not a bad idea... make them work with the people they're defaming and see the real deal...

ArtBoon SG

Never be too fervent in anything.

If people want to hear, let them hear. If not, best to leave people alone.

Yeah, and the argument is that Muslims are free to convert people, anti-christian literature can be spread (the Da Vinci code, jesus christ superstar, stuff blasphemous and derogatory to christianity), but once you dare touch the holy faith of the prophet (a warrior), chances are not only you will be hunted down like a god (depending where you are), but the Law will prosecute you in a blatant act of double-standards.

the problem is people cannot be left alone, once alone without laws and orders, they create monkey business, and hor, people also hv a funny habit, they like to disturb people who are alone.
