‘While some will see what we all have in common, others will see the things that divide us.’
Christians believe that Christ was the son of God. Muslims believe that he was a prophet but not divine in nature. For Muslims, Muhammad was the last prophet. For Christians, he was not.
Most of us will say if you drink beyond the limit permitted by law, do not drive. Most of us will abhor drunkenness and bad behaviour. But few of us will try to score religious points in making an argument about why we should not drive whilst under the influence of alcohol. It is true one can selectively quote verses from the Bible which condemn inebriation or drunkards, but any half-intelligent person knows that this applies to anything when done to excess or taken to extremes.
Drinking and driving is certainly something I don't condone. If you want to drink outside your house, then don't drive. Simple as that. That's common sense. It also dawned on me that the subject can be somewhat misleading; it depends on the religious background of the person. The premise of Zawawi’s argument is flawed, at least in the Malaysian context. It is not the question of how much he knows about other religions which he thinks is enough for him to comment.
