'Us' n 'Them'

oooooo, hehehe i changed my blog template!!!! though i dun think that its a nicer blog template, but its still a veri refreshing change ya? in e short run, i'll keep this blog template while i take my time to look for one that is veri nice for e long run. quote: "nothing is permanent except change" =)

yeah, i'm back to e happie xingyou that u guys always knew :) 真的好开心。oh went to watch kingdom of heaven wif ting at causeway point on wed nite. (went causeway point cause cathay still 6.50 n we both wanna save money) hehehe was so fun loh..............time out wif someone special. anyway e tix cost 13 bucks in total, quite cheap we thought so we decided we will get a nacho's combo.

Ok, e nacho's combo cost $5.50. consist of some chips, an abundance of hot cheese as well as a drink. Sounds nice? nah, not when u see e drink is only of regular size, like mac's smallest coke size =S n e chips were pathetic........not to mention e hot cheese that didn't taste like cheese. *rantles on n on* but wat a waste of money, end up me n ting bought another drink for 2.20 cause e miserable regular size drink wasn't enough. end up e stupid nacho's combo spoilt my movie trip wif ting. but everything's lovely wif her around, tt's for sure. So lesson learnt, NO MORE NACHO'S COMBO ok ting? hehehehe

back to e show, for those who haven't watch it i recommend u go do so n for those who haf watched it, i haf some deep thoughts to share wif each one of u. Since the birth of this blog, i'll abstain from blogging abt my views on religion............maybe its time now to shed some light on how i feel abt these things. i'm a free thinker, so i dun not possess abt form of biasness towards any religion. They r all equal in my eyes. i've always respected ppl's choice of religion as well as all the religions.

i came to observe that a certain form of conflict exist in our world, be it abt religion or other stuff, stems from e inability of ppl to accomodate another group of ppl wif different lifestyles or different views. its a central theme from e module of geopolitics that i took last sem.

"The essential moment of geopolitical discourse is the division of space into 'our' place n 'their place', its political function is being to incorporate n regulate 'us' from 'them', the same from 'the other' "

E movie did bring up some thoughts that i've always been pondering... how do the muslim world see e christians in the present? how does christians view them back in return? can they accomodate e existance of each other? who does their god say abt each other? say abt buddhism n other religions? wat does buddha think abt all this?

Who's in e right religion n who's in e wrong religion? christians as well as muslims n buddhist will stand up n claim that their one path is e right one. but are they in e position to judge who's right n who's wrong? perhaps to them, it didn't occur that only e ppl outside of this can see e whole picture clearly..............can e christian community accept a person who has a muslim bf? can e muslim community do so vice versa? wat abt free thinkers? we can accept n respect e respective religions but can they do so in return? its obvious here that its e effect of regulation of us from them again.

E theme of e show is glaring..................................i cannot say that i'm a free thinker also i guess. cause i haf a religion of my own - e religion of e heart. A religion which i cannot go against my own conscience n my moral code. In this lifetime, i shall do good n no evil and if god doesn't understand this, then he is not my god.....tonite i'll pray that the world can be more accomodating to ppl who r different in theirs of views n perceptions. i'm sure it will be made more beautiful with less regulation of 'us' from 'them'. Cause for each one of 'us', there exist a mirror image of the 'other' juz that both are in different situations. i shall leave u fellas to ponder on ur own. =)
