How times change. I remember when I was a kid, i used to hear stories about chinese Christians being persecuted. Now it seems, Christianity has become a fashionable thing (see article in Economist on 21 April 05, linked above). I guess when a country opens up, its people get to choose what it wants. I hope Malaysia opens up more, too. I read recently it would allow Bibles in Bahasa Malaysia to be freely available but it must be restricted to non-Muslims only. Why? Dont they trust Muslims to be strong in their own faith? Has the millions of ringgit spent on furthering Islam been all for nothing, in that Muslims still need to be protected in this manner? I think this restriction is an insult to Muslims.

“So, I commend the enjoyment of life.” (From the Bible – really. Eccl 8:15)
