Can common sense prevail?

Have a bit of read into this to catch up on the reading. Views expressed are different, depending on what a person's value system and line of sight is. I have been championing integrity and unity in my sphere of influence and be let down by the very government that I support. No wonder many are considering to move out of the country.

1. Understand the modern ( last 5 yrs ) Malaysian 'persecution' ( http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/global.php?id=910262)

2.The Malay-Islam thoughts about protecting what they have. (http://myislamnetwork.net/portal/modules/smartfaq/)

Still better than the threats like this( http://itsmy.blogs.friendster.com/here/2006/08/gambar_lina_joy.html)

Translation - This is the picture of F*** UP

p/s: If you see this despised old hag anywhere, don't forget to advice her.

Or should it be 'advice' her?

And definately a hot issue for those concerned.

Meeting in Ampang for 50 Islamic NGO with concerted effort to 'pressure the government". Full of people and subsequent lobby activities. Good job guys!

Maria - not her real name - is a young Malaysian woman who has lived a secret and sometimes fearful life since she converted from Islam to Christianity.
Apostasy, as it is known, has become one of the most controversial issues in Malaysia today.
Maria became a Christian over a decade ago when she was 18. She says no-one forced her to convert, that she made the decision after studying different religious texts.
Conversion is deemed so sensitive in Malaysia that even the priest who baptised her refused to give her a baptismal certificate.
And, even now, the church she attends asked her to sign a declaration stating the church is not responsible for her conversion.
"My church says if the authorities come, they are not going to stand up for me. I have to stand up for myself," she said.
Not even Maria's family know she has converted.
"If my family find out I am no longer a Muslim they will completely cut me off. That means my name in the family will be erased.
"I could migrate, but the problem is I want to stay in Malaysia, because this is my country. And I love my family. I just want to live peacefully."


But at the end of the day, I agree with Maria that she just wanted to " live peacefully". Can common sense prevail?
