See Evil, Hear Evil but Speak the Truth

I came across this interesting blog -by Mr. Smith - and I really recommend you reading.

Here is his excerpt of a reply to Wong Chun Wai's 'Why Christians prefer to vote for PAS, not BN' published in the Star on the 29 Feb 2008. (And I am sure his letter was not published by the MCA paper)

“ I hear church groups telling their congregation to vote anything opposition including PAS, which is simply naïve and emotional. Whatever the flaws of the system, it still works, despite some occasional hitches,” said one Penang Barisan leader.

Why didn’t you name that Penang Barisan leader? Because this quote is your personal view. Writers like you, who are de facto press secretaries of the MCA, write your views and attribute them to some sources or political analysts. Please lah, don’t mock at our intelligence!

Mr Wong, a flawed system doesn’t work!!! If it is flawed, it is flawed. How can it work?

I understand you are a Christian but I wonder how much you understand the Gospels or the very life of Jesus Christ and what he stood for.

Our Lord would not have been crucified had he accepted “the flaws of the system” of His times. He never asked his people to close their eyes to the “flaws of the system” and instead focus on development , personal comfort, bank accounts and roads.

He stood up against the corrupt leaders who were fleecing the people. He condemned them as dead man’s tombs, hypocrites, vipers etc ( please read Matthew 23). The entire chapter is condemnation of the corrupt leaders of the Law.

How could one who professes to be a Christian choose to prop up a regime that is utterly corrupt and immoral? How could a Christian vote for candidates who are unwilling to defend the rights of his religion? How could a Christian support a regime that denies the weak non-Muslim to seek redress in any court of law?

What is your take on abuse of power, the dismantling of the Judiciary, the corrupt government leaders who inflate their bank accounts with money that belongs to the people? What is your stand on the confiscation of Christian literature and the Bible or the banning of the term “Allah” (mind you, this was approved by the Cabinet of which MCA Ministers are members)

Aren’t all these precursors of more frightening things to come? Have you thought what awaits your children's future if this trend continues?
