KUALA LUMPUR, March 28 — Christians are inviting trouble with their provocative and extremist stand over resolving the impounding of Malay Bibles, an umbrella body representing 19 Muslim non-governmental organisations (NGOs) said today.
The group, which calls itself the Islamic Defenders Organisation (Pembela), accused Malaysia’s minority Christian community of deliberately hurting the feelings of the majority Muslim community with its police reports and harsh statements in its attempt to resolve the ongoing Alkitab row, as the controversy has come to be known.
In its statement today, Pembela demanded that the Christian groups involved in the row return to the mutual respect among religious followers based on the Federal Constitution, legal provision and various other official decisions.
It warned that the “pressure and provocation will cause national political leaders to feel weak and on the losing end and will give in to whatever is asked for by the extremist groups without taking into account the position of Islam in the constitution, history and culture; or provocation and continued breach against feelings and sensitivities of Muslims will cause tension and invite reaction from Muslim who are hard to control by anyone.”

Hard to control? Take a look at the Middle East today and you will see millions of Muslims who are out of control. Except that they are not complaining against Christians but despotic Arab rulers who use religion as a tool of control.

In Malaysia religion's situation setting; who is starting the chaos fire in the first place? It was your leader who used to pledge the Keris and impounding the Alkitab. What can you do when the minority Christians asking her rights under the light of the true spirit of Federal Constitution? Kill them? Is that the ultimate purpose of your religion's tenets?
Here in Sabah or Sarawak, we live in a big family that has Buddhist, Christians, Islam and pagan together in one family. Are you trying to tell me that we should kill my aunties, uncles, brothers and sisters who are yet Non-Muslim/Muslimah? How dare you!! Yes, we can kill them once but it will never kill their soul. We cannot kill them twice.
Are these minority Christians (Roman Catholic, Protestant Churches, Coptic, East Christians and many more Christian denominations) really disturbing your faith? Or are you include all Christians in Malaysia as your harassment target? How dare you! The Christians have more then 30 denominations in Malaysia which have different each other in teachings and beliefs even though the called themselves as Christian. Some of them quite similar to Muslim's way of diet and yet still called Christian. Are you (Pembela) generalize all Christians in Malaysia as ONE? They are not ONE. They are different to each other. What you can do if all these registered denominations and organizations in Malaysia sue Malaysian government for indirectly "stealing" the Bible which belong to (ONLY) one denomination? You want to run Amok? Is this what our God wants? Please, serve yourself with the light teachings of our Prophet (PUH) on solving Non-Muslim's issues. He (PUH) is very diplomatic Prophet (PUH) and never putting aside minority's interest. Don't ever say that you are better than Prophet Muhammad (PUH).
