Removing UNMO B /BN has got noting to do with race or religion. We want an honest and just government to take our beautiful country forward to be on par with other !st world countries, making us proud to be Malaysians. Look south.
I have seen churches get involved in politics in other countries. It starts with the same basic reason – the collapse of basic decency that no religion can ignore and then it gets dragged into it by the politicisation of religion, in our case, attack on the religion itself.
The stage of church involvement in this country is just infancy. The more the Church is involved, the more its a sign that basic decent conduct is being thrown out the door..
Those who are against the Church doing this – ITS UMNO/BN fault..No one else..

Dear Admiral, did the Bishop urge anyone to vote for the DAP? Don’t be over sensitive to his remarks. BN people, especially those from UMNO do not understand the meanings of the words “just”, “honest” and “incorrupt” and need to be enlightened by the voters.
If you feel that that the Barisan (especially UMNO) has been an honest and just political party, you are duty bound to vote them into government again! That seems to be the message of the Bishop.

You idiot chengho. Any level headed person with a conscience will NOT vote for BN. Only sick people like you prefer a corrupt regime.
Hi Murphy Pakiam, why are you still asleep. Want to be a Tun Murphy?

Bishop Sebastian Francis is also praying for your benefit, chengho.
Come on, tell me if you dont want “a government made up of political leaders who are just, honest and incorrupt”.
Then again you are a believer of islam jenis-umno. So this request is just too much for you and your kind!

Yeah pray for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

When the rich and powerful believes in god, the run rises from the west. Eat your hearts out!

For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither anything hid, that shall not be known and come to light.
