In the light of recent events...
I don't care if this post sounds controversial, but as a human being I'll said what is rightfully mine within the context of the constitution.
I'll stress it here like the way Uncle Peter did:
If I were to suddenly die today, I would like to reiterate now that I have never renounced my current faith in Roman Catholicism. I have never converted to another religion, specifically Islam. I have never practiced what is required of good Muslimmenwomen. I will believe in Jesus Christ as my God and Saviour till my very last breath.
AM a Proud Catholic. That's one of the main reason why I'm wearing a crucifix, as what was advised by an old Indian aunty in a La Salle home when she was telling her stories of how she escaped the war hiding in parits but still worrying the day she would die but not be buried as a Catholic.
Should I die (*choi* touch wood), I just want to be given my last rites as a Catholic despite having a name that sounds so much like a Malay.
Imagine all the fuss my dad have to go through during his uni days, being lectured by the uztaz for not fasting during the puasa month when in fact he's a Christian.
Like the way Uncle Peter said it:
So, please Mr. Body Snatcher, please leave my corpse alone. I am not of your faith, never will be. If you have records to prove it, I assure you that those are forgeries. Having my body does not guarantee that you have my soul. Let God and God alone be my judge and punish me for my sins. If I have to go to hell according to your beliefs, so be it. Whatever, it is , let my remains rest in peace. My final wish is to be sent off as a Roman Catholic. That is the least you can do for a man who can no longer speak for himself and stand up for his rights. That is called respecting the dead.
Faham?
