Karamjit Gill, Muslims are just being good Christians

By MT Webmaster Last updated Dec 27, 2015

In short, also, the Muslims are following Christian (and Jewish) laws. Christians, however, no longer follow Christianity. They have deviated from Christianity. And you call Muslims who are true to Islam and are not hypocrites as those ‘whose mindset is of the dinosaur era’ while the Christians in DAP are liberal, moderate and modern who Malaysians should support.

NO HOLDS BARRED

“All this while we were made to believe that Umno is racist while PKR were the moderates. However, PKR is fighting with all their might to hold on to the most conservative political party in Malaysia, whose mindset is of the dinosaur era,” said Karamjit Gill in his article, DAP should abandon PKR and work independently, published in the Malay Mail Online (READ HERE).

Karamjit is calling the PAS people those ‘whose mindset is of the dinosaur era’. That is actually not just an insult to Muslims. It is also an insult to Islam. So is he saying that Muslims who do not wish to gamble, drink, eat pork, sleep around, live out of wedlock, enter into gay unions, borrow from loan sharks, become loan sharks, run massage parlours and brothels, participate in child sex and child porn, etc., are those ‘whose mindset is of the dinosaur era’?

So what do Muslims need to do to become ‘modern’, ‘liberal’ and ‘moderate’? Do they need to violate Islamic laws and rules and push the Qur’an aside? Must they do everything that Islam says they should not do and not do everything that Islam says they should do?

Karamjit is stepping into very dangerous territory here. He is telling Muslims how they should practice Islam. And if they practice Islam the way Islam says it should be practiced then Karamjit says they are people ‘whose mindset is of the dinosaur era’.

Islam is 1,400 years old. Hinduism is much older. And until today many Hindus still refuse to eat beef. Can we say that Hindus are people ‘whose mindset is of the dinosaur era’? After all you no longer need cows to till the land. In this modern post-dinosaur era we have tractors to do that. So why don’t Hindus just eat those fooking cows when 10% of the world is facing a food crisis?

I bet Karamjit would not dare whack Hindus who refuse to eat beef and call them people ‘whose mindset is of the dinosaur era’.

Actually what applies to Muslims applies to Christians and Jews as well. The only thing is Christians are no longer Christians. They have left Christianity. This Friday Christians are going to celebrate a pagan holiday. And then they say they are celebrating Jesus Christ’s birthday. Is this not a mindset of a dinosaur era?

Do you know that the Church of England back in the 1600s banned the celebration of Christmas because it was considered heresy? Shops were ordered to stay open on 25th December and shopkeepers who closed their shops would be arrested. So the church regarded Christmas as un-Christian, paganism and heresy. But Christians are stubborn and refuse to listen.

Muslim women are supposed to cover their heads. Karamjit would call this a practice from a dinosaur era. Well, actually Christians (and Jews) are supposed to do the same according to Paul.

“For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.” (1 Corinthians 11:6)

And this is why the Bible says that women are supposed to cover their heads:

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery;’ but I say to you, that everyone who looks on a woman to lust for her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.” (Matthew 5:27-28).

Christians are not supposed to divorce and yet the highest rate of divorce is amongst the Christian community.

“It has been said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery, and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.” (Matthew 5:31-32)

And those who commit adultery are supposed to be put to death.

“If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife — with the wife of his neighbour — both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to death.” (Leviticus 20:10)

“If a man is found sleeping with another man’s wife, both the man who slept with her and the woman must die.” (Deuteronomy 22:22)

But then Christians will argue that that was according to the Old Testament. According to the New Testament Jesus has abolished the death penalty for adultery. Well, this is not what Matthew says.

“Do not think that I [Jesus] have come to abolish the Law (the Old Testament) or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke or a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law (the Old Testament) until everything is accomplished.” (Matthew 5:17-18)

“Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: ‘The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must obey them and do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.” (Matthew 23:1-3)

So there you have it. Jesus said that Christians bikin tak serupa cakap and cakap tak serupa bikin. In short, they are hypocrites.

And what about Hindus who refuse to eat beef? Are they liberal, moderate and modern people or people ‘whose mindset is of the dinosaur era’?
