Too long, wait tio kan again. So split it into halves. KNN, you read so fast. :rolleyes:

A belief system built on visible security and personal gain is neither a Christian invention nor uniquely Christian. It is a method as old as human nature - much like the way zookeepers condition animals to obey their keepers. If faith is anchored primarily in answered prayers - so long as the...

Do not underestimate the gravitational force of human desires. It is said that desires make slaves of kings. Christian doctrine may have undergone countless revisions and splintered into many denominations, yet there is one force that unites all followers: desire. You may call them fanatics...

This one no lanjiao one, not me lah. :rolleyes:

Far from it, sometimes tio 潑糞 also :rolleyes:

I have terminated the services of my 2 regular English-Thai/Thai-English translators.

Frankly, I do not begrudge pastors their generous salaries. These pastors understand the Bible and have fully mastered the psyche of their followers. When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the crowd shouted, “Hosanna! Hosanna!” Yet only 4 or 5 days later, the same crowd demanded that he be crucified...

Can fly this one - radar cannot detect one:

Wow ! This one one of my favorite topics. :tongue:

I feel very vulnerable whenever I fly Scoot. :unsure:

You cannot compare someone who has had a heart attack before with someone who has never experienced one. A few years ago, a close relative of mine had a heart attack, and I witnessed the entire ordeal. He had no prior history of heart problems - it simply happened without warning. He remained...

In modern Singapore, longevity depends on ONE thing - pazham. :frown:

You are onto something :thumbsup: Suppose you do not have a physical body, but exist only as a conscious mind - much like waking up in the middle of the night in your bedroom when everything is dark, and only your consciousness is present. Suppose you are unaware of any other beings, and your...

If you believe the narrative in Genesis that “Man is created in the image and likeness of God,” and in Romans that “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,” then surely pleasing God is not about offering tithes, achieving career success, or living a luxurious lifestyle. It is about...

Many people anchor their faith in answered prayers, and ‘answered’ often means receiving a promotion or a raise, finally being able to afford a home or a car, or finding a socially sanctioned outlet for desire - namely, marriage. Abraham was not called the father of faith because of his...

Couldn't tell her height.
