杀手的告白 叁

今天在那想着宗教在新加坡的影响。 有个宗教领导说: 宗教是为了让人们得到心灵的需求,都是朝着同一个方向走。很想叫他去放屁,但是有点不好。我的见解呢?

Using SCIM to type Chinese is a tiring chore, but will soon get used to it. This religious leader, whom I shall not name and I shall not divulge which religion he represents, said that all religions fulfill the same purpose by fulfilling the spiritual needs of the people. That is said in the context of CEP. So is it really so?

I tell you people. it's not so simple. But I'm not interested in sparking off a debate at this stage, so I will leave it at here, to leave you all think more deeply into the issue.

What interests me more, is that on my way to Ulu Pandan CC today, I was thinking about the impact of Jesus in this world, other than the personal lives which were and are and are in the process of transformation. For one, the way we look at our calendar, this is 2007 A.D. Some people use 2007 C.E. But who are we kidding? Even if you use C.E, you are still adhering the way by which the year is being counted, in the year of the Lord. If you wanna use C.E, you might as well use a different dating system as well.

And I was looking at the programmes sent to me by NACLI, and I saw a course on Servant Leadership... certainly the doctrine of servant leadership as advocated by Jesus is making its way to the PA management... hopefully... and I was looking at the way we organise our government. We call the people running the government ministers, and the part of the government they are leading ministries. These are words that came straight out from the bible before we call our government departments ministries. The word literally means servants (in essence). So what does it tell us?

Hmm...
