laurence,
Wow, just because the Constitution protects my freedom to
propagate religion you see the need to suppress me? I wonder
if you even thought through what you just said. You
would rant and rave about how the church in the
past persecuted people who don't believe, an act that would
never find Biblical sanction anyway. But then it seems that if you
get your way you will start persecuting religious people,
suppressing religion and what not. Precedent? The communist regimes
in the last century. Trust me, it ain't pretty. Go wiki or google
it.
I think I am OK because what I am doing is constitutional and
lawful. In fact, I am merely DEFENDING my faith against the
unceasing attacks by people the likes of Tcmc. Perhaps you think
such defense of the faith should be suppressed so that your gripes
against the faith go unchallenged?
Again I say, there is nothing illegal or wrong with evangelism
per se. What becomes objectionable is when such evangelism involves
unethical means and unlawful methods. Again I say this,
Singapore has the maintenance of religious harmony bill to regulate
the propagation of religion. I think it is sufficient. Why do you
see the need to override this and the constitution to call for an
outright ban?
Evangelism isnt protected by the law, we concluded that some
time ago. Religious harmony is to prevent christians from
persecuting other religion
It is because the church persecute other religions/non beliefs,
so we should be defending ourselves. Unless its fair that you guys
do it and expect non-retaliation?
