It's a fallacy that religious harmony can be maintained by laws alone. Laws work when most people abide by them, and the people enforcing those laws actually believe in those laws. In religious theocracies, preachers often encourage their followers to disregard secular laws and follow religious laws.

Laws on sedition did not stop civil wars from breaking out in places like Sri Lanka, Iraq, Burma. Neither did they stop various communities in mudland and indon from now viewing each other with great suspicion.

So the PAP government failed to maintain religious harmony between 1948 and 2018 and have to resort to further controls via the inter-faith agenda.

The early PAP government and the government before them failed to maintain racial and religious harmony in the 1960s. You can read up all about those 1960s riots. But the PAP learnt from its mistakes and improved. Since then, there's not been such a riot in Singapore until the serfs riots' in Little Keling in 2013.

Inter-faith agenda stirs up religious sentiments even more by introducing making the worshipper accommodate deities and gods from other religious.
Religiously incorrect.
Blasphemy.

The Islamist group Hizb ut-Tahrir rejects the concept of interfaith dialogue, stating that it is a western tool to enforce non-Islamic policies in the Islamic world.[130]

Many Traditionalist Catholics, not merely Sedevacantists or the Society of St. Pius X, are critical of interfaith dialogue as a harmful novelty arising after the Second Vatican Council, which is said to have altered the previous notion of the Catholic Church's supremacy over other religious groups or bodies, as well as demoted traditional practices associated with traditional Roman Catholicism. In addition, these Catholics contend that, for the sake of collegial peace, tolerance and mutual understanding, interreligious dialogue devalues the divinity of Jesus Christ and the revelation of the Triune God by placing Christianity on the same footing as other religions that worship other deities. Evangelical Christians also critical for dialogues with Catholics.

Religious sociologist Peter L. Berger argued that one can reject interfaith dialogue on moral grounds in certain cases. The example he gave was that of a dialogue with imams who legitimate ISIS, saying such discussions ought to be avoided so as not to legitimate a morally repugnant theology.[131]

In the case of Hinduism, it has been argued that the so-called interfaith "dialogue ... has [in fact] become the harbinger of violence. This is not because 'outsiders' have studied Hinduism or because the Hindu participants are religious 'fundamentalists' but because of the logical requirements of such a dialogue". With a detailed analysis of "two examples from Hinduism studies", S.N. Balagangadhara and Sarah Claerhout argue that, "in certain dialogical situations, the requirements of reason conflict with the requirements of morality".[132]

The theological foundations of interreligious dialogue have also been critiqued on the grounds that any interpretation of another faith tradition will be predicated on a particular cultural, historical and anthropological perspective[133]

Some critics of interfaith dialogue may not object to dialogue itself, but instead are critical of specific events claiming to carry on the dialogue. For example, the French Algerian prelate Pierre Claverie was at times critical of formal inter-religious conferences between Christians and Muslims which he felt remained too basic and surface-level. He shunned those meetings since he believed them to be generators of slogans and for the glossing over of theological differences.[134][135] However, he had such an excellent knowledge of Islam that the people of Oran called him "the Bishop of the Muslims" which was a title that must have pleased him since he had dreamed of establishing true dialogue among all believers irrespective of faith or creed. Claverie also believed that the Islamic faith was authentic in practice focusing on people rather than on theories.[134] He said that: "dialogue is a work to which we must return without pause: it alone lets us disarm the fanaticism; both our own and that of the other". He also said that "Islam knows how to be tolerant". In 1974 he joined a branch of Cimade which was a French NGO dedicated to aiding the oppressed and minorities.[136]

and seeing all this shit you refer to makes me glad those people got together without problems to pay respects to those boys. I'll take a small win anytime.

that seems to be the popular thought, but actually religion does not need to have a god. It can have many or it can have none.

More Christians in Parliament means a more prosperous and advanced society. Most people want to migrate to live in Christian-majority countries or visit them as tourists.

Not now. Knowing Christian society are bad people.

1. The bible wasn't a Holy Book... but a Horrible Book Act of Wars, murder, incest, betrayal, deceit, lies, faking and so on....

2. Christian Westerners went round the world to colonise weak countries, reaped of natural resources and left the natives poor and hungry people. At least pay the natives salaries to live well and upgrade the standard of living... none this happening...

Which colonised countries in the British Empire has set a day for glorifying the BE? Singapore don't have a BE day to celebrate the glorifying the BE achievement taking care of the natives?

Tannie, Singapore was an auction city for opium trading and target China market. The city of Singapore was built with trading opium profit money. Pommies are not that kind to use their England tax payers monies to build Singapore, fat hope.... no opium profit money no Singapore.

Christian Westerners had a evil God. Even steal a ME man Jesus to be their fake God... shameful...

Is that correct, Tannie...

The Bible has war, murder, incest, betrayal, deceit, lies and faking all in it. Read it to see how God deals with all these sin.

Non-western warlords did the same. Their soldiers destroyed, looted, murdered and enslaved people in lands they conquered. They didn't even leave the natives alive to suffer from poverty and hunger.

Most asian and african trade hubs were auction cities for slavery. That's a huge war crime. Or then again, maybe it isn't because those cities weren't western.

Why is that Muslim with a white cap there? Doesn't he knows he is committing kurafat and fasik?
A little bit more and he is out of Islam.

God has nowhere to be found to
1. Stop it.
2. But instead started it.

Common sense to tell you God don't write his own narratives... Palsm 118:8 says it all.

Parsley in salt water and unleavened bread: First interfaith Passover feast in Waterloo Street

SINGAPORE - With a dip of parsley in salt water and hymns sung by a boys choir, about 100 people began an especially unique Jewish ceremony at the Jacob Ballas Centre in Waterloo Street on Wednesday night (March 30).
Ten tables of guests ate and drank - with nary a mask in sight, and in such a large group for the first time since the pandemic - as they commemorated the ritual seder feast ahead of the Jewish Passover on April 15.
What made the three-hour ceremony particularly special was the participation of Mufti Nazirudin Mohd Nasir, the Roman Catholic Church's Archbishop William Goh, president of the Singapore Taoist Federation Tan Thiam Lye, and more than 10 other religious leaders.
They took their cue from Chief Rabbi of Singapore Mordechai Abergel, in turn reciting passages about the Jews' exodus from Egypt more than 3,000 years ago, in the first interfaith Passover Seder that the Jewish Welfare Board has organised here since it was set up in 1917.
"Passover is called the festival of freedom, because on that day, freedom was embedded in our souls. Although we continued to suffer in subsequent exiles, Jews were always conscious of the fact that their bodies may be suffocated, but never their souls," Mr Nash Benjamin, president of the Jewish Welfare Board, said in his opening address.
The Passover festival is one of three biblical festivals in the Jewish calendar, and is the most loved and observed by Jews all over the world. It marks the deliverance of the Jews from the bondage of Egypt and the birth of the Jewish nation.
Rabbi Abergel spoke about the Jews' journey from their escape from slavery in Egypt through God to surviving the Holocaust and setting up Israel in the 20th century, while instructing those present on how a traditional seder is eaten.

A seder usually lasts five hours and is held so that children can ask their parents questions about their own culture, he said. The ceremony on Wednesday was shorter, skipping some steps, but still continued deep into the night.
Unlike the usual Jewish seder, it was alcohol free, with wine replaced with sparkling grape juice, due to the religious sensibilities of representatives from the other religions.
After eating parsley, unleavened bread and eggs, guests were then treated to a fuller five-course vegetarian meal that included bourkas - a soft pastry - with mushroom sauce, a dumpling soup, mushroom rendang, tofu and yellow rice, salads and pomegranate and coconut ice cream.
Mufti Nazirudin chose to read a passage from Chapter 26 of the Quran that described Moses' conversation with the Egyptian pharaoh holding the Jews in captivity. He said he chose to read from the Quran as it fit the interfaith harmony on display on Wednesday.
"There are a lot of similarities between the Jewish tradition as well as Islam. The Passover is the story of the Exodus, and you find similar stories in the Quran. I thought it useful to share our scripture on an occasion like this," he said.
Minister of Community, Culture and Youth Edwin Tong, the guest of honour, said the Jews have contributed much to Singapore's harmony.
"The harmony is a cherished one, and we must constantly work at preserving it. Coming together, sharing a meal, and celebrating each other's key moments give true meaning to our desire to foster a multi-religious and multicultural Singapore," he said.
"As we ease our safe management measures and transition towards an endemic stage, rebuilding societal bonds, the mutual trust and friendships that we rekindle this evening will enable us to emerge as a more cohesive and resilient society."
