Man of Iron Spirit

At this time now, while we are enjoying the comfort technology brought us. The peace our fore father has provided for us. There is one man still standing on a ground of never ending chaos, where he calls home.
Mr Xanana Gusmão, you herd cows and writes poem, dreaming of a land with no wars and hatred. Fate force you to become a fighter, and destiny make you a man, whom carry what I define as "unfortunate" burden.

You must be tired now after 24 years.

No! You are not allow to get tired, as the land you love, the people you hold dear did not have what they deserve yet. You must fight on, till the day your people can once again walk the street as a free man, without fear that fellow men beside would prosecute them.

I will burn a wish paper for you, that the day your prayer may come soon.

Unseen Gospel

So much so for the controversial novel, here is the controversial Gospel.
"The soul answered and said, 'I saw you. You did not see me nor recognize me. I served you as a garment, and you did not know me."

"The first form is darkness, the second desire, the third ignorance, the fourth is the excitement of death, the fifth is the kingdom of the flesh, the sixth is the foolish wisdom of flesh, the seventh is the wrathful wisdom. These are the seven [powers] of wrath." (Link)

China top 10 Archaeological discovery

It was reveal by the Chinese cultural relic newspaper, some of them are particularly interesting.
In one those ten items. One of them was a container fill with salted duck eggs, preserved for 2500 years. It is still edible. Other than feeling nostalgic, you must be able to withstand sea water like of sensation down your throat.

Other than the eggs, there is also weird big bird, mutated rice etc. (Link)

If you are a Yahoo user, Yahoo search, mail, blog etc, don't worry, they really take good care of you.

Nowsaday, I really got confused with whats art and what obsence. Imagine someone stand on a big stage and shout for world, without any clothes on.
"我讨厌看到悲剧的发生,但我却看到了身边一幕幕的不近人情的事件上演,每天看报纸最多的就是坏消息。但我承认自己终归没有那么大的能力来改变事态,所以我更要见以一次说一次,让大家都吸取教训,不要再发生令人不愉快的事情,这也是我唯一能做的罢……” (Link)

Quotes from the now China emerging sex blogger - 刺猬穆穆, whom stir up a bit wave in the recent China beauty contest for blogger.

Please pardon me, no matter how I try to squeeze my logical juice, I just can't link these 2 things together. Is it, please look at my naked body, they will give you a sense of righteousness. Or, in order to achieve world peace, please support pronography.

Blur! I am sorry!

4 computer games that are not suitable even for you.

Not I say one, but China's Ministry Of Culture.
恐怖牢笼,Blood Rayne 2, Obscure and AV Mahjong will not have the chance to appear on computer screen in China. (Link)

I am curious though, what about this naked golfer and crocodile lady, are they going to be taken down too?

Ancient style Japanese meals served on naked women bodies

The university ladies would laid there quietly as the customers ate their sushi.
At the Huaishi Cuisine Restaurant in Kunming, capital of Yunnan Province, customers would paid merely one thousand China dollar to enjoy this form of sushi meals.

Don't rush to buy your air ticket yet, China authority had already banned this. China's State Administration of Industry and Commerce issued an order on a basis of "Insult to Human bodies and moral quality". (Link)

In the belly of Great Dragon

My morning was a dull one, with the lousy breakfast I had, plus 2 hours of fruitless meeting, I can hardly stay focused.
In front of the great law, it was not the denial of defense that put me in this frustrated situation. I have chosen this way and would gladly face the circumstances.

How far can an underground effort developed? Without the recognition of the local authority, does it means less in the eyes of Heaven? Who is to determine which church is righteous in the eyes of Christ?

I ponder for an answer. I would rather face the anger of Heaven than to stomach my pride of being denial. None shall be in the way between me and my Lord.

Points in Da Vinci code that is controversial.

I swear this is the last time Da Vinci code appears on my post.

I haven’t watched the movie, so is about the book, which is not rated nor ban.

1. Bible is altered; all text that didn’t support the divine nature of Jesus is removed.
2. All books that do not fit into the main stream of the Christianity were not included in the canon, like the Dead Sea scroll, gospel of Judas etc.
3. Jesus plan to get marry, and have children, and then go to the cross.
4. We have been studying the incomplete scripture for the past 1600 ++ years.
5. Every Christianity beliefs that we know is 夸大。
6. What is it that you been reading? If they can remove text, so add they also can.

But off course, all this are nothing but fiction, we don’t have to take it seriously.

Preach and blog online

I have seen some people setup a Christian cell groups, and blog online, in order to further your belief.

While I have nothing against it, just find it weird.

Now there is an official blog site you can register and preach online, maybe not really official, but at least it is recognize. (Link)

What are you waiting for, my brothers? now even God goes online.

Wafa Sultan, The debate about “backward” Islam

Wafa Sultan, an Arab-American Psychiatrist, didn't only claim that Islam is a “backward” belief, but also states that the clash that we experiences, like terrorist, Iraq war etc, are not the clash of religion, but is about Human rights.
Although the video clip has been view over a million times, but I am pretty sure that Singaporean have no knowledge about this. (Fish tanks, remember?)

Luckily, there is blogger, my fellow Muslim. (Link)

If you are unable to view the video, you can always read the transcript of the interview.

China vs America

China fight back US for their “anyhow” annual report on religion and humans rights

America annual report 2006 on China policy stated:

“The space for political openness, public activism and greater civil and individual freedoms is narrowing in China. Over the past year, the Communist Party has tightened its control over religious leaders as well as journalists, intellectuals, the Internet and non-governmental organization.” (Link)

This is part of the full 16 pages report that will surely halt many foreign investors. China did not sit and ignore….

Either the religious leaders rally themselves or“special” forces behind them initiate the move. The Dragon fights back.

Islam – Chairman of the Islam association of China (陈广元), says,
China has about 10 or more minority ethnic groups, Moslem stand about 20 millions of the population. Their life of faith being respected and their religion practices are protected under the law of China. There is no oppression.

Taoism – Chairman of Taoist association (任法融), says,
Ever since the Reformation, China has been working very hard in upholding freedom of religion. America ignores real facts, and uses the prosecution of Falun Group to attack our society. Please bear in mind that the banning of Falun is the will of the people.

Catholic – Vice Chairman of the National Patriotic Association (爱国会), (刘柏年) says,
The annual report twisted a most of the facts and causes a misleading view point. The current Catholic situation is fine. During the last visit the American visited us and compliment on our effort about religious freedom. Why now the contrary reports?

Christian – Association of Christian, Vice Chairman (于新粒), says,
There is truly religious freedom in China. Bible publication has reached 40 millions copies, this is the proof. America is doing the wrong thing to the World. Christian of China object to the way America disrupt others nation internal affair by using the names of Religion.

More…. (Link)

Much of these debates are unreal for me. In the Internet almost anything can be fake.

Another point need to note is, the general concern of the religious leaders in China are, whether or not they are being oppress. They mention the Falun Groups in many occasions, clearly this is not an issue about religious freedom, it is all about the banning of “cult” they deem dangerous to their traditional belief. This is a justification.

哎呀!害得我以为华人真的开放和进步了。

So much for religious freedom, more like it is determined by numbers.

Did you regret becoming my friend?

Through those years of my unworthy cause, many of my friends left me after they found out what I was trying do.

I could not bring myself to blame them. They have all the rights to sever this friendship.

I began to win back the relationship with my family; they start to see what I was doing.

Sometimes I still meet friends on the street, they are amaze I have 3 children and still surviving. Some people expect you to suffer but secretly hope that you would last and persevere. Yes, I am happy you see me in this way too.

Just like the old time, when I decided to join the RSN, many people advise against it. I act against their better judgments. I stay in the forces for 7 years. I only regret I have there is listened to this arrogant “Batman” not to act freely.

I am a better man, thanks to him.

Last year, my unit calls me, follow by a letter to tell me my service is no longer required, for reason I cannot express here.

As a NS man, I always feel that Serving in Arm Forces is an act of patriotism. It is not when your motive is question, and your heart is misplaced.

Do you seriously believe that those young punks that you recruit are able to defend the nation with their life? You could be sincerely wrong!

I leave the place and found myself another definition of patriotism, one that you cannot comprehend with that worldly thinking of yours.

If you ask me, yes, we are still friend, always.

Magnanimous healer for Humanity

Dr. Zhi Gang Sha experiences a near death during childhood, which he laid coma for sometimes. There onward, he determined to help more people heal, and overcome chronic pain.
This is a kind of self healing technique, not worship. (Link) Although it is claim so, will it in the future become like the Falun Gong? Hard to tell now.

But from what I have gather so far, (and by the look) it is unlikely that man like this would turn to the "side" practice, rather, it is usually the followers that corrupt the practice, and lead more people along.

Dr. Zhi Gang Sha base in Hawaii and teaches his self healing technique there, the movement is at its beginning stage and worth observing.

The news at Star Bulletin has more info. (Link)

A good reason for whatever price hike

Due to the ever demanding social requirement, you see lah! I ask you not to vote them complain about safety anymore you dun listen, now they have a reason to ask for another price increase
Actually, my young and beautiful Missy at home is quite supportive with this idea. While I am worry about the infringement of Human rights and privacy, she hash at me and says:

"Who care about your pathetic Human Rights when we are threaten by terroist!"
"But, thats the reason they use to install more camera, before you know it, they gonna put one infront of your door, tap your phone etc."
"Put lah! What's more important? Safety should come first."
"But.. but.."

Never argue with a woman who is defending her 3 kids. (Link)

Such a BIG Singapore News, go until Manila. (Link)
