I came to work on the 8th wearing a crucifix and a pendant of Mother Mary.
I knew this was the day that the fools who were supposedly 'fighting for God' would gather to protest the usage of the word Allah by non-Muslims. I knew there was going to be drama (these sore losers seem to be very good at it). But i also knew that come rain or shine, i am proud of being a Catholic and would not let these fools force me into thinking otherwise.
What i didn't expect though, was to read about the burning of a church first thing in the morning. And then three more by the time i leave for the weekend.
What religion would condone such acts? No Allah or Buddha or Lord Shiva or Jesus would say that it's okay to perform harmful acts towards others or their place of worship. I was disgusted at the state that some rotten apples in this country have become.
About 4pm, i heard that the fools have begun to smash windows of cars with rosaries or crucifix in it. Turned out though, that this was just a rumour because the cops couldn't find any such car. People started pointing fingers at the government, saying that this whole issue is a part of their big plan to misuse power and gain more control over the country. Political drama or no, it is wrong.
Someone then told me that we should save all our money and leave this country for good because it is eventually going to the dogs. I then passed this on to another person and this person said something which made sense. "No, we shouldn't leave. We should stay and fight."
While i don't think anyone should retaliate by burning mosques (we don't need to stoop so low to prove a point), we should join forces and prove that even in these testing times, we as Christians have the faith and willpower to remain strong and survive this uncalled-for war.
Apparently, the total damage is now up to 10 churches. Well fools, do all the damage you want because a church is at the end of the day, a building. The real church lives within our hearts and no amount of molotov cocktails or whatsoever would be able to burn that down.
And in the middle of the day, i stumbled upon a beautiful message on Twitter courtesy of @Beckerzville regarding this hoohah:
"You came into our church, desecrated our Holy Host and lived to write about it and all we did was feel sorry for your ass. Why? That's faith."
Fools, i wish you good luck when your time comes to leave this world. Trust me, you're going to need lots of it in that final destination of yours.
