OMG!! What has happened to my beloved country?? It seems that one shit happens after another, it's like a freaking domino effect.. However the latest shit can be crown THE SHIT of the decade..
On 31st December 2009, a landmark ruling was made by the High Court that the Catholic chuch's publication, The Herald, can use one specific word in it's publication.
Then on the midnight of last Friday, one church was arsoned while another 2, attempted arson.. A 4th one was attacked but also failed.. All because of that one word..
So what is that one word? Oh yes people, if you have been really following the new (I personally don't anymore cause it's crap but for this specific topic I do), it is that one word 'Allah'.
So the big question is now that, is 'Allah' only specifically for Islam? Some might argue yes while other might argue no.. I for one let the facts speak for itself.. The word 'Allah' is actually an Arabic name for God derived from the word "Al-ilah".. And no, it's not God's name.. It is the same God that Arabic-speaking Christians and Jews refer to and it's the same word that is found in their bible.. However, modern teachings of religions has distorted the original meaning of the world, all thanks to different man-made interpretations..
So if it is an Arabic word, why is it being make a fuss in this country? In fact, it only happens in the Peninsular part.. In Sarawak, PKR Sarawak chairman Baru Bian was quoted saying "The usage of Allah’s name was a non-issue in Sarawak despite the name widely used by all religions in the state for decades." And I can bet my money that in the Arab countries, it's the same story as in Sarawak.. So why?? Why all the fuss? Why take it out places of worship?? And I even hear to the extend that some people out there are beating some other people (add up the facts)..
The battle is still ongoing.. I'm pretty sure the Government is appealing the High Court's decision in the Court of Appeal.. And later there's the Federal Court.. Peaceful demostrations; understood.. Angry feelings; normal human reaction.. But burning down churches?? In a country where 1 Malaysia is suppose to unite all races?? I don't think so that's a good start indeed..
It is good to see that the whole country has condemn the attacks.. And also good that only a handful of this misguided people are doing this.. I just hope and pray that the safety of our nation will be restored and we can actually work towards a better future.. Enough shit already.. If the current Government really wants to win the next General Elections, it better do something about this and quick.. However, as what the leaders of the Metro Tabernacle Church has done, the attackers have been forgiven.. It is always better to forgive someone than holding a grudge against him, knowing that you'll never rest peacefully even until Kingdom comes..
Btw, u can actually search up tons of articles over the net about the origin and meaning of the "Allah" and you'll see most of them will come back to the same thing..
Until then, let us all monitor the current situation and really pray and hope that God will bless and protect Malaysia and nothing untoward will happen to this beautiful country.. And that this situation will be solved ASAP!!!
