All the Cheena bengs out in full force to foul up the air again. As if having the haze not enough.

young bengs n lians don't really burnt joss papers.
only the older generation does that.
When they pass on, I don't think the younger generation is carrying forward these superstitions belief.
Why do chinks persist in their idolatry?
Jesus fucking Christ, go fuck yourself! Fucking Christian taleban!
On the contrary I see the burning this year as being more intense. And many young ones amongst them. The office types from those industrial estates. I just visited Ubi / Eunos area to run an errand and the entire place up in smoke.
the young joins in only as it is organized by the company. On their own I don't think they will buy a few boxes of joss papers from Sheng Shiong and start burning at the void deck.
Talking about this, I saw my neighbor burning at the corridor just outside her flat. The smoke was quite intense. However the smoke alarm at the upgraded lift landing did not activated. funny.
I see the unusually big smoke out this year as the Taoist bengs asserting their rights as why Lky ever said.

It's just a stupid centuries-old superstitious practice that should have been eradicated a long time ago. We're already in the 21st century. All bets are off that the bulk of them belong to the 70% slaves.
This has nothing to do with true Taoism, or the way of the Dao. Never in the teachings of Laozi or Zhuangzi do you read about burning joss paper.

I always wonder why the govt census classify paper burning practitioners as taoists. If you asked anyone of them in Chinese very very few would say they practise 道 Dao or 道教 Dao Jiao. Most would say they pray to ancestors or generally pray to 'gods'.
