Great Challenge

I am still in great disbelief, that the few incidents happened today, actually happened, in the country i called my home. often i heard this in other country, in another part of the world, i thought, whow, I'm so glad I live here. But now, I'm just so sad.

It was said that human are born barbarian. Their carnal nature, are, barbaric. That's why they need law to govern them. And most of the earliest law in the world, starts off with a foundation from the bible. and slowly, as the people evolves, the law also evolves, to suit the then modern world. For a long time, law and morality (or religion) has a very fine thin line in between and it often overlap. But slowly, countries with their foundation on a religion, depart their law from religion or morality. Is it good or bad? I'm not sure. looking at UK, after they depart their law from religion, years later, civil partnership came to place. To religious fanatic, of course it' s not a good thing. But to free thinker, it's their business that u're trying to interfere. For modern people, they don't mind others' business.

A lot of times, people has forgotten, that law is to govern the people, to prevent injustice and to help the weak. To have consistency and structure. to have a fair and square community (which often, it's the other way round). to have whatever u think law should be. But, to have rules and regulations or law against the freewill of people,what is the purpose of law then? Your standard of morality is different from my standard of morality. Then, according to whose standard we then should meet? take for example, sleeping around. do u think it's fair to have a law, says that we cannot sleep around? no, but by your standard of moral, u think it's not alright. so, taking in YOUR thinking, you bring in morality into law, hence, we have "u're not allow to have sex unless u're married!". So, is this a wise thinking?

So, back to today. My heart was heavy the whole day, in a prayerful heart, the whole day I was checking almost all the local online websites and keep refresh my FB and twitter to check the updates on what was happening today. I prayed like i've never did before for a loooong time. And my heart still feeling sad, of what just happened today. I'm still in great disbelief, of what they believe in. I got no comments (i'm not allowed to, no freedom of speech) but, to pray, for God's intervention and God's peace be with His people.

Till then, be careful and take care. Be wise to discern what is right and cast out rumours, that's the small part you can do, to help restore peace back this country we all call our home. May God bless Our Home!

(i am not, in anyway, against any faith or belief, opinions or views. examples above are one of the many examples. this purely, only on law and morality, a subject we did during LLB)
