Don’t play-play with the God of the Christians

If my memory serves me right, the last time UiTM held a seminar to bash Christianity, one Christian student - or was it more than one? - studying at the institution of learning and coerced to attend it was reduced to tears by the obnoxious, disparaging remarks made against the religion.

That says a lot about UiTM and the speakers at that seminar.

Now UiTM is again at it. And abetted by no less than the Royal Malaysian Police.

Now we hear that Muslims are enticed with gold, glory and the gospels to become Christians.

I think the speakers have missed out on diamonds weighing in the tens of carats and Hermès Birkin handbags. Surely those Christian missionaries must know that those items are much prized in Malaysia.

That says a lot about UiTM, the speakers at the seminar, and the police.

The latest seminar was obviously organised to help divert, even if only a little, the hoi-polloi’s attention away from the matter of the US$681 million and RM42 million of public funds embezzled - embezzled in an indirect manner, of course.

And these sums are what is known. There may be more that has been embezzled, but it has not been detected yet.

The seminars have been a sheer waste of time. UiTM, the speakers at the seminars, and the police are absolutely nothing against the God of the Christians. That God is truly great.

That no apostate or Christian missionary has died from water in the lungs, breathing difficulties or some such extraordinary afflictions after several prominent Muslims have made their claims and performed their simian antics has proved the said God is truly great.

For example, former PAS president Yusof Rawa claimed, in 1988, that 66,000 Malay Muslims had become apostates; and in 2007, Perak mufti Harussani Zakaria claimed 250,000 had.

But the God of the Christians has protected those apostates as well as those who have converted them. That is why not one of them has been arrested.

Then you have the Selangor Islamic Affairs Department (Jais), the valiant defender of Islam who crashed through the front door of the Methodist Church in Damansara Utama on the night of Aug 3, 2011 while a thanksgiving dinner was in progress inside.

The act was clearly calculated to paint the Christians and the imagined would-be apostates in there as the greatest villains the world had ever known.

If you asked me, I think they had gone berserk due to the aroma of the food of which they had not been invited to savour. That was why they had charged in to spoil the party.

Uncouth behaviour

May I digress a bit? Such uncouth behaviour seems common among the defenders of Islam. Remember how the Jais people had acted outside the Bible Society of Malaysia’s gates? And Mohammad Abu Bakar (the inspector-general of police’s brother) and his gang of barbarians had demanded that a church remove its cross?

Former Selangor PAS commissioner Hasan Ali had claimed a few months later that Christian missionaries gave solar-powered talking Bibles, cash, cars and laptops to Muslims to entice the latter to embrace Christianity.

Woo hoo! Those missionaries must have had the key to Fort Knox.

And to prove his claim, he produced a video featuring a couple and another Muslim whom he said had been converted to Christianity. And, yes, he went on to produce another video. That one didn’t make the news.

But the God of the Christians has protected those apostates as well as those who have converted them. That is why not one of them has been arrested.

Meanwhile, Hasan has gone into oblivion. Where he rightly belong.

The God of the Christians has also rendered the police impotent. Obvious, isn’t it? I mean, the Special Branch has all the goods on the loaded missionaries, but yet it has been completely unable to haul any of them off to the notorious police lock-up.

We definitely haven’t heard of any missionary kicking the bucket following breathing difficulties or drowning in an arid cell, have we?

All these fellows should just give up on their futile exercise. They shouldn’t play-play with the God of the Christians.

By 2020, service dogs will be regular visitors of hospital patients needing special therapy, and guide dogs will lead the handicapped everywhere safely..

And, of course, all supermarkets will have only one type of trolley. -Mkini
