Well... haha... as the topic suggested. My workplace here has 2 hardcore religious group, the Christians and the Buddishism and some free thinker as well (ME) . Hmmm.... they are harmony against each other, no fighting or any pusuading for either party to convert or so whatever.
The interesting thing about those people who are religious is that they had absolutely benefitial thinking about their own one. Today, i was having lunch in the meeting room and the others joined in and as usual they will chat while you are eating, comment about the looks of your food, compare the price, give some compliement etc... (can't i just have a piece of mind when having lunch ? kekee). So today they have touched on a topic where 1 of the female staff's in-laws had different religion, her parent side is pure buddisht and her in-laws are thinking about converting to christian. So the worrying things for this female staff is that she is quite open-minded whereby she is willing to accept that her in-laws were from a different religion from her but not her husband. However, her in-laws are trying to drag her husband to follow the religion too, and the problem comes when she doesn't know where her children should follow if their parents are from 2 different religion.
So i was thinking that why should parent have the right to decide what religion that their child is going to follow or perhaps force them to follow what they worship now ?... Yeah... maybe you would probably say that "it's your parents who bring you up and give you what you want till you are in a independant age". Well... i would say that its their part to do that for you when they decide to bring you into this world during the night right ? ... so when they do their part in bringing you up and you should leave the other personal things of them to decide themselves. If they only wants to be a free thinker and so what ?... let them be then... why force them to follow a religion ?
A good thing that i felt to be a free thinker is that you no need to worry about the future when you are married and what religion your other half is in... and if you find that your partner's religion is cool and benefitial to you... then you still have the rights in the whole world to worship right ? ... if you locked yourself to a religion so soon, you might end up in a sorry agnony where you are in danger of letting a solid relationship to slip away. So this is my point of view of worshiping a religion.
Now i have a query about vegetarians (people who eats only vegetables). Probably some of you may heard that they say that they doesn't want to 'Sa Shen' (kill living life), but come to think about it, isn't any green plants or fruits a living life too ? ... if not how do you explain that it can turn into something big its original state is just a seed ? ... and why farmers water them to let them "GROW" ? so this kinda explains why plants and fruits are living things. Erm... i am not saying that vegetarians are liars... but i think they should change what they meant, they should have said they do not eat animals rather than not killing lives... true? ... Scientist has already proven that when you speak to a plant at night and there will be some kind of sound wave produced by them and so they respond and grows better... ya ?
And my collegue explains to me that plants are not living things because they dun scream when you kill them ... huh ? ... *_* ... wouldn't it be scary if plants are able to speak ? ... lol from my point of veiw is that plants dun shout because they dun have a hole to do that ... they doesn't have the organs ,like humans do, to do that ya ? So i think in the future they should say they are not eating animals instead really.... =)
