Starting from Friday, till Monday a total of 8 churches have been attacked so far, in response to the courts allowing other races to use the word "Allah".
The churches are -
The Metro Tabernacle Church in Desa Melawati
The Assumption Church in Petaling Jaya
The Life Chapel Section in 17 Petaling Jaya
The Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Kuala Lumpur
The St. Louis Catholic Church in Taiping
The All Saints Church in Taiping
The Sidang Injil Borneo Church in Negeri Sembilan
The most severe damaged church is the Metro Tabernacle Church, while the rest suffered minor damages or non due to failure of the bombs to explode.
What kind of people would attack places of worship because of a word? If you have a problem with other races using the word "Allah" and solve it thru proper means, and not do this. This only puts you in a bad light, shows that we can prefer violence methods rather than peaceful ones.
And the Herald...if the malays want to be the only ones using "Allah" let them!! We can substitute Allah for Tuhan right? What is the big deal, we are still calling god.....GOD!! Just give the word up! Is it worth it, to let things escalate just for a single word? Give IT UP!
It makes Malaysians in general, look really bad, like a country that is religious intolerance. is this what we are becoming? Is this what we want the rest of the world to see us as?
geez.
