		<description>Honest religious discussion and genuine religious practices and the freedom to practise one&#039;s faith are shoved aside under all kinds of pseudo reasons whilst pesudo religious discourse and ceremonies of all kinds of hypocrisy proliferate in Malaysia where politicians take the phot-opp to wear their religions on their sleeves.

This is so sad for Malaysia. Should we wonder why morality and religion are going to the dogs in this country?</description>

		<description>AAB has clarified that it was because of his schedule, he would not be around at the time set for the conference, that the meeting has been rescheduled. It was not a ban on the meeting. It is strange that AAB only clarifies matters when the issue became history!</description>

		<description>Surprising that he was concerned about the MU match cancellation but not even a whimper about the InterFaith Conference.

Guess he is only playing to the gallery.
This incident of banning the conference has damaged our reputation as a nation that promotes religious harmony - maybe that was just a mirage only.</description>

		<description>Before the silent, gentle and peace-loving &#039;sufi&#039; majority feel embarrassed and betrayed, it must be made aware that the Malaysian government, by canceling this programme, has pre-empted a potentially violent IslamistÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ mob. A mob which is aware of the injunctions against parrying with the infidel (pardon my french) and that such a dialogue would fit the bill.</description>

		<description>Pak Lah said today he wants the Manchester United v Malaysia football match to go on.

Will he do the same for the Inter Faith Conference which his government banned but no-one wants to take responsibility?

Is a football match more important than inter-faith dialogue? What is the PM&#039;s priority?</description>

		<description>&quot;However, mosques are everywhere. Just look at the Wangsa Maju and Ulu Kelang area, why need there be so many? Also, mosques are built using state funds and state funds are gained from taxes not only paid by Muslims, but by those of other faiths.&quot;

Let me add along your comments politkamalaysia that most of these mosques are white elephants. The congregation of worshippers is so sparse it&#039;s only enough to fill a surau. Is it me or the new Islamofascists of UMNO policy is that suraus are bunk and only construction of huge mega-mosques are acceptable? Waste of space and waste of taxpayers money. 

I don&#039;t mind even supporting the BN if they&#039;re blunt and honest for once. They talk of religious tolerance and behind our backs they do all sorts of **** like banning interfaith dialogues, demolishing hindu temples and allow Xtians to only congregate in shophouses. They sweet talk the Chinese in Ijok to fish votes and yet not long ago they were waving keris and accusing them of trying to take advantage of Malays. Cakap lain serupa bikin. To hell with the king of hypocrites.</description>

		<description>Many times we do not really understand why some inte-religious dialogues are not permitted. Perhaps there is the apprehension that it would spark off some problems or tensions.  This is understandable.  

However after giving the permission and to cancel last minute with out considering the fact that our foreign delegates have bought their tickets and paid for their hotel etc expenses, it is bad.  It is really bad to do that.  It spoils the name of our country...don&#039;t you think?

We have to walk the talk.  If we say that we exercise religious freedom, then allow people of all beliefs to air their programs on tv or radio!  If there is nothing to hide, nothing to be afraid of why not? Why prevent churches  from acquiring lands to build or temples too?  You know in United Arab Emirates within the vicinity of a huge mosque lays a premise for Christians to worship.  Pretty big too and within walking distance and so close to the mosque.

So clearly to have people of other faiths worshipping near a mosque should be no issue.  Is it not fear?  Really I am saying this based on the previous comment on the issue of building the goddess of mercy by politikamalaysia.  Hope the information is correct.

If Muslims are not threatened then relax and don&#039;t be so defensive.  If one is a Islam, and not threaten that someone is going to convert him/her, why be so paranoid?  You know by not giving people the opportunity to know about other faith, one becomes so narrow and shallow in thinking.  By preventing and laying restriction and trying to protect, one can&#039;t help the curiosity to arise.  The more restriction, the more rebellion, you know.  So relax.  

If what we believe is true and we are so convinced by it why are we afraid?  Why is the government afraid?  Why are Muslims seen as cowards who are afraid that there would be conversions if other faiths are aired in TV?  Why the restriction?
Too much control only leads to rebellion.

My 2 cent advice to Mr. Prime Minister and UMNO is relax lah don&#039;t be so tensed up and protective.  Give some breathing ground to everyone.  Prove that you really mean it that you believe in religious freedom.

Relax on Christians, Buddist, Hindus and other religions.  Let them hold their conferences, invite their guest speakers or delegates.  It is good for foreigners to see how moderate we are..right?  Don&#039;t send everything to Shariah court.  You are just annoying everyone and frustrating them.

Besides it is &#039;Visit Malaysia Year&#039;..is it not?  Do not be paraniod and fearful and control so tightly.  If children can rebel under such control what do you think of the adults?  So much of control and restriction only goes to show one thing, FEAR!  Why are we so fearful and paranoid?  - That is my question!</description>

		<description>From Zig ZiglarÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s Ã¢â‚¬Å“See You at the TopÃ¢â‚¬Â, 25th anniversary edition.

Easily the most tragic cause of poor self-image is the influence and impact of some well-intentioned preachers, churches, and good people who only preach hell, fire, and brimstone.  People who preach only GodÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s judgement with little or no mention of GodÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s love stress the negative and very seldom mention the positive.  They dwell on punishment and forget about rewards.  Personally, if I thought God was Ã¢â‚¬Å“againstÃ¢â‚¬Â me and was out to Ã¢â‚¬Å“getÃ¢â‚¬Â me, it would definitely give me a poor self-image.

The second reason many people have poor self-images out of proportion to their talent and ability is simple.  Their ability, appearance, or intelligence has been ridiculed or questioned repeatedly by parents, teachers, friends, and others in authority (government?).  In many cases, these hurts come in the form of insinuations and innuendoes, but they are just as real and devastating as if they were true.  Many times, even a chance or unintentional remark starts the negative slide which is then fed by hurts that are real or just imagined.  The net result is, we see ourselves through the negative eyes of others.  If your friends, family, and associates find fault like there is a reward for it, you get a  distorted picture of the real you.

In other cases, an unthinking or exaggerated series of statements has a negative effect on the self image of a youngster.

The destructiveness of this approach should be obvious, but unfortunately, it is often anything but obvious.</description>
