Heilige Theepot bedreigd door moslims van Maleisië
Nog een mooi voorbeeld uit multicultureel paradijs Maleisië, waar het wettelijk verboden is de islam af te vallen.
Malaysia 'teapot cult' attacked [size=2] The large teapot dominates Ayah Pin's Sky Kingdom Arsonists have attacked the base of a small inter-faith sect in Malaysia called the Sky Kingdom. [/size] [size=2]The sect is noted for building a giant teapot to symbolise its belief in the healing purity of water, and is accused of luring Muslims away from Islam. [/size] [size=2]A lawyer for the sect, Haris Mohamad Ibrahim, said that about 30 armed men dressed in Arab robes had attacked the commune with Molotov cocktails. [/size] [size=2]No-one was injured in the attack, which caused a small fire. [/size] [size=2]"The roof of the teapot structure is... slightly charred, but since it is made of concrete, the damage is not extensive," firefighter Ahmad Fakarudin told Reuters news agency. [/size] [size=2]Police raid [/size] [size=2]The sect - based in the strongly Muslim state of Terengganu - claims to promote harmony between religious groups. [/size] [size=2] Leader Ayah Pin believes he can save the world Its leader, Ayah Pin, says he is the saviour of the world. [/size] [size=2]He has attracted believers from many different religious groups with his message of love and tolerance. He claims to allow his followers to be members of any faith, including Islam. [/size] [size=2]Earlier this month, the group was raided by police, and 21 followers were arrested for possessing documents contrary to Islam. They were all freed on bail pending a court appearance in September. [/size] [size=2]Members have been jailed in the past for attempting to renounce Islam, and the group's bizarre constructions have been deemed to be against local regulations. [/size] [size=2]The group's controversial structures are said to combine architectural elements from Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism. [/size] [size=2] [/size] Malaysian sect members arrested [size=2] The large teapot dominates Ayah Pin's Sky Kingdom Malaysian police have arrested 21 suspected followers of a religious sect called the Sky Kingdom. [/size] [size=2]They were arrested for possessing documents contrary to Islam, according to an official in Terengganu state. [/size] [size=2]The Sky Kingdom is an inter-faith sect which claims to promote harmony between all of Malaysia's religious groups. [/size] [size=2]Known as much for building a giant teapot structure as for its teachings, the group has often been criticised for luring adherents away from Islam. [/size] [size=2]Members have been jailed in the past for attempting to renounce Islam, and the group's bizarre constructions have been deemed to be against local regulations. [/size] [size=2]'Teapot cult' [/size] [size=2]The 21 suspects who were arrested in pre-dawn raids on Sunday included a police officer, a member of a popular local rock group and the fourth wife of the sect's leader Ayah Pin. [/size] [size=2] Leader Ayah Pin believes he can save the world They have all now been freed on bail pending a court appearance on 23 September, said Lim Char Boo, head of the Criminal Investigations Department in Terengganu. [/size] [size=2]The Sky Kingdom is led by the eccentric Ayah Pin, who claims he is the saviour of the world. [/size] [size=2]The group's controversial structures - which given it the nickname "teapot cult" - are said to combine architectural elements from Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism. [/size] [size=2]The teapot is thought to signify the purity of water, while the umbrella signifies God, who shelters everyone in the world. [/size] [size=2]Ayah Pin, whose real name is Ariffin Mohamed, has attracted believers from many different religious groups with his message of love and tolerance. [/size] [size=2]He claims to allow his followers to be members of any faith, including Islam, but critics accuse him of luring Muslims away from the faith. [/size] [size=2]The raids on the Sky Kingdom commune reflect Malaysia's sensitivity towards such issues. [/size] [size=2]"The activities and teachings of Ayah Pin must be stopped. That is our goal," Muhammad Ramli Nuh, deputy chairman of Terengganu's Islamic development committee told the French news agency AFP. [/size] [size=2]The opposition fundamentalist Islamic Party, which ruled Terengganu state until last year, attempted to shut down the Sky Kingdom in 2000, but Ayah Pin's followers obtained a court order against the move. [/size] [size=2] [/size]Ayah Pin's Sky Kingdom The "Sky Kingdom" is a quasi-religious commune located in the eastern Malaysian state of Terengganu. Its founder and leader is Ayah Pin, formerly known as Ariffin Mohammed (or Mohamad). To his followers, Pin is a reincarnation of everyone from Shiva to Buddha or from Jesus Christ or to Mohammed. Pin himself claims to be God. Sky Kingdom's stated aim is to promote interfaith understanding. A Pink Teapot, A Boat, An Umbrella... The commune would not seem out of place in a Disney theme park. It contains an umbrella-shaped building about two storeys high, an ornamental fishing boat, strategically located faux Greco-Roman pillars, and the centrepiece - a pink teapot. Ayah Pin and his followers - he claims to have several thousand in Malaysia, Singapore, Bali and beyond - say the two-storey-high teapot was inspired by the dreams of one of the cult's followers, and reflects a similar vessel in the sky which God uses to shower his blessings on mankind. Followers who come to the village for the first time have to drink "holy water" pouring from a giant vase that is perpetually filled by the teapot. The cult does not have any moral or religious strictures of its own. Instead, Ayah Pin, whose real name is Ariffin Mohamad, says members can follow any religion they like. He claims that all prayers will be answered by none other than himself, because he is God. "All religions are basically the same," says Ayah Pin through an interpreter. "God teaches love. He is for anyone who wants to know about the world. You can choose whichever religion you want." Source: Sect where blessings pour from a teapot by Azhar Sukri in Kuala Lumpur, Sydney Morning Herald, Australia, Mar. 5, 2005. [font=arial]Ayah Pin in front of the Pink Teapot - Sydney Morning Herald[/font] The Sky Kingdom is said to be a version of similar structures found in the sky. But the structures in the sky are apparently more aesthetically pleasing since they are decorated with diamonds, sapphires, and other gemstones.

Ja en wat nog erger is he: Er zijn erg weinig overgeleverde gedichten van Sappho van Lesbos. Natuurlijk heeft die vuile Kerk dat op haar geweten.
Dat zeg je natuurlijk niet he, jij houdt je liever bezig met dit soort onzin. Flauwe. |
