Religion And Secularism - AWARE of Singapore

AWARE of Singapore

If you had been following the exiting and mysterious saga of the takeover of guards at AWARE of singapore, you probably would be asking a few questions of your own. If you wish to find out more, go to Sg Politics which had this issue covered comprehensively. The latest information out today have raised more questions about mixing religion and secularism.

From my point of view in the analysis of religions, in particular Christianity (the main reason being that it condemns all other beliefs and religions, and also condemns all who do not accept Jesus as their personal Savior to hell; such a doctrine has very side implications), there will always those who have reached a stage where they think that they are so close to their god that they begin judging others and the whole world. Such behavior normally ends up with a new cult, and most, if not all, cult leaders proclaim that they are the only righteous ones who will go to heaven, while all outside their church (and that includes all others who call themselves Christians) will end up in hell.

Now the focus is on the claims that the pastor/s of the Church of our Savior (COOS in short) had orchestrated the hostile takeover of the AWARE organisation as the latter's old guards had allowed discussions on homosexuality and lesbianism without openly declaring that they are wrong. Up to yesterday, the pastors and church members involved had denied any kind of organised behavior, but leaked emails from them had indicated otherwise, with allegations that the pastors themselved were directly behind the whole saga.

I have seen many such individuals who proclaim to be a servant of god, but end up trying to condemn the world and all others. It is clearly written in the BIble that Jesus said, "Judge not that ye be not judged.". The whole world, Christians and non-Christians, will be judged by god himself, according to the BIble. So why are Christians judging others now? When a crowd tried to humiliate a prostitute, Jesus did not condemn her, but asked to to repent (as recorded in the Gospels). So clearly, some self-righteous Christians today think that they are equal to god and are clearly out to judge the world, and that is in direct oppositon to what Jesus commanded.

If nothing is done, I can only predict that COOS will soon become a cult.

The next point is, AWARE is not a religious organisation, but a secular one. If COOS wishes to speak up against homosexuality and lesbianism, it should be and can be done via their own pulpit, to their own congregation. They should not link themselves to AWARE at all. Surely relision and secularism do not mix.

Lastly, the behavior of the so-called Christians involved do not speak very well for their god, does it?

The Bible and Aliens

I read the book of Leviticus in the Bible many times over many years, and it made no sense at all in relation to the Bible-god. No preacher could also explain exactly what it means to this day. Then inspiration came upon me the last time I read it, and it made a whole lot of sense now. Read my interpretation and judge for yourself. Get others to read it. Then please refute me and tell me if I am wrong. I have posted it here for many months, and no one had sent me any feedback or refuted an iota of it till today. Please read it objectively and not with a biased or fixed mind. I am searching for the truth, not human defences.
