A letter was circulated by the Ministry of Communication at the beginning of the month. It warned broadcasters to watch what is said on air. Apparently, some people among the Buddhist community were offended when somebody spoke about Christians being blessed during last year's floods, such that they were able to bless others. Such things need to be said in a way that does not offend others.
I also hear that people should not be seen to have been coerced to change or give up on their religion. Media people should not openly tell people to become Christians, etc. It is okay for churches to do this, though, since people go to church willingly to hear such messages. It is just not okay to do it on the street.
Meanwhile, the number of Buddhist monks is decreasing.
I wonder where people are putting their religious faith these days. How does one share the love of Jesus in this society? The way Jesus loves is not religious, in m opinion. I see Jesus to be against religious practices. However, many people around the world do not seem to understand this.
