Sultan of Brunei bans Christmas 'because it could damage faith of Muslims'

[Indos]

Yes thats what i believe. Going to church or mosque doesn't mean shit. Just depends on the way you live and treat others PERIOD. The rest is all bullshit. lol

Sorry to interrupt mate, dont forget also how you should treat your God.

I'm sure GOD doesn't need any treatment from me, he can take perfect care of himself.
So think its up to me to focus on myself, my neighbors and how i treat others in general. GOD(if there is one), will probably see me for who i am and how i treat his fellow children.

What a hypocrite.

Pervert Muslim King Bans Christmas in His Kingdom–Threatens Christians with Prison

Pervert Muslim King Bans Christmas in Brunei

The Sultan of Brunei has banned public Christmas celebrations–even though he and his brother are far from devout practitioners of their nation’s strict Sharia law.

From the Daily Mail:

The super-rich ruler of Brunei has told residents of his country that if they plan on celebrating Christmas, they could face up to five years in jail.

In fear the the religious holiday will affect the faith of its country, the tiny oil-rich nation’s Sultan, Hassanal Bolkiah, has banned the public celebration of Christmas.

Any Muslims caught celebrating Christmas, and non-Muslims who are discovered organising celebrations, could face the lengthy prison sentence.

While non-Muslims are allowed to celebrate the holiday within their own communities, they must not disclose their plans to the nation’s Muslims – which make up 65 per cent of the 420,000-strong population.

The Sultan owns the Dorchester Collection of hotels.

The chain’s two American hotels are the Beverly Hills Hotel and the Hotel Bel Air.

In the spring of 2014, after the move to sharia law, celebrities like Ellen DeGeneres led the charge for massive boycotts at the properties.

Read the rest of the story here and further reporting from Breitbart London here.

According to a 2014 60 Minutes report, the Sultan and his brother are clear hypocrites, freely indulging their own sexual mores.

From MalaysianDigest.com:

60 Minutes’ Alison Langdon travelled through the small Asian nation undercover to see how the strict regime was affecting citizens and spoke to a woman who was once part of the Sultan’s harem revealing the hypocrisy of the current state of affairs.

“We’ve been trying for six months to get access and permission to visit Brunei to speak to the Sultan and that was denied, so in the end we decided to go in as tourists,” Langdon told news.com.au ahead of the program.

What they found, she explained, was a beautiful but repressed country where its citizens never criticise the royal family – mainly because it’s a crime – and seem to be unaware of the Sultan and his playboy brother, Prince Jefri’s debauchery.

Both brothers have a reputation for indulging in beautiful women.

Vanity Fair dubbed them the “constant companions in hedonism” in 2011 for their lavish lifestyles and penchant for collecting women like children collect toys.

And Prince Jefri is on the outer, accused of siphoning $19.2 billion (AUS) from the country’s coffers.

According to Jillian Lauren, the American woman who spoke to 60 Minutes about her year in Prince Jefri and the Sultan’s harem, the pair indulged a lot – and they didn’t care how old the girls were.

“She (Lauren) was in the harem when she was 18 and when she was there there were between 30 to 40 other girls, some as young as 15,” Ms Langdon said. “She spent a year there. She received hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gifts, jewerlly and clothing. She was very well looked after but that’s because she caught the eye of the Sultan’s younger brother Prince Jefri.

“She was his play thing. They had sex hundreds of times and then Prince Jefri gave her as a gift to the Sultan and she goes into great detail (about) the sexual activity she got up to with the sultan.”

don't forget the video

she's got a family yet she's doing it lol. she is a strppers originally though so yeah.

the dumbest part would probably the Bruneians. they are paying taxes for the royalties to buy whores for themselves. nobody learned from the good governance of the UK? it seems like any other Monarchies goes dumbfuckingly backwards as the time goes!

Of course He will take care of Himself

If you dont believe there is God so it is useless to talk about it mate, some time ago there is an Atheist TT in here who asked for such prove and say that he will appreciate if someone can give him the prove. So I give him the prove since he is the one asking for it. And I dont know whether you have interest or not for such prove.

How to treat God is simply by thanking Him, for what He has done to us. If some one give you something of course you need to at least showing respect and gratitude to that person. In Islam, what we do is praying to show that gratitude.

There is a scientific prove about the present of God that I might share to you if you are wiling to.

Science and Faith are two different realms. There is no intersection.

Brothers, the great American social justice philosopher , Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., once opined,

"Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge which is power; religion gives man wisdom which is control. Science deals mainly with facts; religion deals mainly with values.

The two are not rivals. They are complementary.


Science keeps religion from sinking into the valley of crippling irrationalism and paralyzing obscurantism. Religion prevents science from falling into the marsh of obsolete materialism and moral nihilism.”

Wow.. So their faith is so fickle that they're threatened by seeing others celebrate theirs .. And somebody mentioned atleast Christians arnt killed, What a low bar that the Islamist's have set for themselves..

 

[war&peace]

WTH did i just read here???? Japan's foreign minister @Nihonjin1051 you are a Muslim?

If he is not, in-shaa-Allah one day he will be a Muslim and join the large family of Islam; the largest and ever-growing family in the world I have only best wishes for him By the way you have already taken a first step by calling him a Muslim.

 

[Shotgunner51]

My opinion is let's respect cultural difference, including that of religious nature, though I am from an atheist country. Religions could be among the most important intangible cultural heritages of various ancient civilizations.


World's Least Religious Nations-or the Atheist Countries.....

Nope. i'm not really religious as i said before(though i do think there must be some ultimate being somewhere for some reason. lol). All i try and do is to treat others as i will want them to treat me full stop, I leave the rest to that 'ultimate being'.

Somalia banned Christmas and New Year’s — even though it celebrates neither. Here’s why.

By Kevin Sieff December 23 at 8:01 AM

Horseed Media. Such celebrations could serve as targets for al-Shabab attacks, he said.

Al-Shabab has continued its reign of large-scale attacks since last year’s Christmas incident. In March, the group took control of a university across the border in Kenya and killed 148 people. At least 15 people were killed last month in Mogadishu when al-Shabab attacked the popular Sahafi Hotel.

Still, the Africa Union’s mission has successfully dislodged al-Shabab from some of its strongholds, and it would seem a contentious move for the Somali government to ban A.U. soldiers from celebrating Christmas and New Year's. The troops are pooled from 13 African countries. Already, they are under enormous pressure. The Ugandan contingent has not been paid for seven months, according to Gen. Jeje Odongo, the minister of state for defense.

Officials at the A.U. Mission in Somalia did not respond to a request for comment.

...and intolerance and stupidity in the name of Islam continues .. many Muslims around the world are apparently teenage girls incapable of controlling their emotions with easily 'hurt feelings'.

Our 'feelings get hurt' so lets ban blasphemy
Our 'feelings get hurt and we are really weak minded to the point of our faith getting corrupted' so lets ban Ahmadis and now Christmas.

That is being 'Agnostic' I believe.. I have a similar thought process, hence thanked ur other post.
