Well, what do you know? Christianity is a VIRUS!!!!

During a heated on-live TV discussion yesterday, one of the panel members, Dr Yusri Mohamad, chairman of the Coalition of Supporters of Islam (Pembela), said, ""It is a Christian virus in the country. They cannot be faulted for having their own missionaries, but they are propagating the virus of pluralism, that all religions are the same."

I am trying to picture this.  What had it been a similar gathering of four Christian or Buddhist or Hindu scholars, and one of them said the same thing about Islam.  I bet you the next thing we will have PERKASA, JATI, PERKIDA, JAIS, and MAIS coming round ready to string the person up for saying such a thing.  Well, fortunately, we are more saneful not to utter such degrading remark as all religions, including Islam, are with God and are meant to serve two purposes - provide hope and salvation to mankind.

The fat cats of BN

The following statements made by some of our BN leaders inadvertently reflect the bourgeoisie attitude towards the common people of this nation. It is a common knowledge that with the increase in petrol price, a domino effect on all goods and services will follow suit, and there is simply no escape from it.  In the end, it is the people who will have to cough up the difference for survival.  Without a doubt these BN leaders have never been poor in their lives as otherwise such callous statements would not have been made.  It also shows how much they have lost touch with the common people.  How could they know when they are the 'fat cats' living in posh homes, chauffeur-driven around, eat at expensive restaurants and earning a sizeable salary.  By the way, the BN fat cats are in no way cute.

"The hike in fuel pump prices will only push food prices us by 0.1 percent.

We have done our best to ensure that any move to reduce subsidies would not unfairly burden traders. As such, we see no reason for them to mark up food prices as a result of the rise in fuel costs." 

Chua Soi Lek said the people need to understand that a gradual subsidy cut is part of the subsidy rationalisation process in stabilising the economy.

Nazri Abdul Aziz has described suggestions that cabinet ministers pay for their own petrol as a "stupid idea".  "I want to rebut that stupid suggestion by (Rafizi). He is a stupid kid." 

"Petrol prices have gone up, but it surely would not burden the rakyat as the only people with big cars are prominent figures who can afford it. Kampung people don’t have cars,” Slammed within seconds, Bung has had to contend with a stream of annoyed Twitter users, including @ayeemin who scathingly said: “A car is not only for the rich. Today, it is a necessity. But having two wives is only for the rich.”

Now, UMNO Baru can understand the Chinese passion for education, and it is like sacred

SWEATING FOR EDUCATION

Recently I came across this delightful story of determination, compassion and radical generosity.

In 1987, a 74-year old rickshaw puller by the name of Bai Fang Li came back to his hometown planning to retire from his backbreaking job. There, he saw children working in the fields, because they were too poor to afford school fees.

Bai returned to Tianjin and went back to work as a rickshaw puller, taking a modest accommodation next to the railway station. He waited for clients 24 hours a day, ate simple food and wore discarded second-hand clothes he found. He gave all of his hard-earned earnings to an unknown orphanage that takes care of over 300 orphans in Tianjin. This orphanage also runs a school for the orphans and other poor children in the area.

In 2001, he drove his rickshaw to Tianjin YaoHua Middle School, to deliver his last instalment of money. Nearly 90 years old, he told the students that he couldn’t work any more. All of the students and teachers were moved to tears.

In total, Bai had donated a total of 350,000 yuan to help more than 300 poor students continue with their studies. In 2005, Bai passed away leaving behind an inspiring legacy.

ONE QUOTATION TO WALK WITH

"It is OK that I suffer, as long as the poor children have something to eat and that they can have a proper education. I am happy just to do all these things." | Bai Fang Li

They say that marriage makes a man dizzy, and it's true.
As soon as I got a wife, I lost my balance at the bank.

Men want 3 qualities in wives: Economist in kitchen, artist in home & devil in bed.
But they get artist in kitchen, devil in home & economist in Bed.

Q: Why do women live longer than men?
A: Shopping never causes heart attacks, but paying the bill does!

Before marriage: Roses are red, sky is blue. U r beautiful, I luv u.
After marriage: Roses are dead, I'm blue. U r my headache, one day I'll kill u.

Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends.
You order what you want, and then when you see what the other person has, you wish you had ordered that.

Man: Is there any way for long life?
Dr : Get married.
Man: Will it help?
Dr : No, but the thought of long life will never come.

Why do couples hold hands during their wedding?
It's a formality just like two boxers shaking hands before the fight begins!

Wife: Darling, today is our anniversary, what should we do?
Husband: Let us stand in silence for 2 minutes.

What did the gangster's son tell his dad when he failed his examination?
'Dad, they questioned me for 3 hours, but I never told them anything!!'

What's the difference between people who pray in church and those who pray in casinos?
The ones in the casinos are serious.

When I was young I used to pray for a bike,
then I realized that God doesn't work that way,
so I stole a bike and prayed for forgiveness.

A little boy went up to his father and asked :
'Dad, where did all of my intelligence come from?'
His father replied: 'Well, son, you must have gotten it from your mother, because I still have mine.'

Jimmy's teacher sent a note home to his mother, saying :
'Jimmy seems to be a very bright boy, but spends too much of his time thinking about girls.'
The mother wrote back the next day: 'If you find a solution, please advise. I have the same problem with his father!'

Here are some liners about marriage from one of America's well loved comedian, Red Skeleton.

 1. Two times a week we go to a nice restaurant, have a

little beverage, good food and companionship.
She goes on Tuesdays, I go on Fridays.

2. We also sleep in separate beds. Hers is in California , and mine is in Texas ....

3.I take my wife everywhere, but she keeps finding her way back.

4. I asked my wife where she wanted to go for our anniversary.
"Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!" she said.
So I suggested the kitchen.

5. We always hold hands when we go out. If I let go, she shops.

6. She has an electric blender, electric toaster and electric bread maker. She said "There are too many gadgets, and no place
to sit down!" So I bought her an electric chair.

7. My wife told me the car wasn't running well because there was water in the carburetor.
I asked where the car was. She told me, "In the lake."

8. She got a mud pack and looked great for two days.
Then the mud fell off.

9. She ran after the garbage truck, yelling, "Am I too late
for the garbage?" The driver said, "No, jump in!".

10. Remember: Marriage is the number one cause of divorce.

11. I married Miss Right. I just didn't know her
first name was 'Always'.

12. I haven't spoken to my wife in 18 months. I don't like to interrupt her.

13.The last fight was my fault though. My wife asked, "What's on the TV?" I said, "Dust!".
