was on the bus this morn....saw the Thaipusam people with all the head gear and needles....Also saw them again in the evening after work.....
was thinking abt them on and off when i saw them--Why do they want to pierce themselves?
it is said (from a colleague) tat they believe the pain is suffered as for their god.
i believe so, it is their kind of worship.
however, it is wrong, god who is loving wouldnt ask us to pierce ourselves, not in any case would it atone our sins too....
i wonder why the years went by like these.
Some pple says it is alike to Jesus, why christians say Jesus died on the cross to save people. Those who do not read the bible would not know.
Initially all God commanded was to keep laws and sacrifice ANIMALS. then He had to die on the cross for us not becoz He likes to torture Himself, but as an atonement for ALL people, because people would not believe such a God exists (i.e. loving enuff yet holy enuff to judge sin-which requires atonement)....
it is also part of the mystery people do not believe why God can come as man many many years ago as Jesus, why Jesus, God are one.
