A few days ago, i tried to strike a healthy conversation with someone in an effort to show my maturity. Muehehe... yeah some people back home still see me as a child, part of it was because of my size, and because i rarely talk of anything worthwhile.

So anyways back to the story, I was never a big fan of AF, but i did watch it last summer, thanks to uji, just to kill my spare signals time. Out of curiosity, i always checked AF forums. Saje2 je la i just wanna know how far malaysians would go supporting the contestants. While browsing, i stumbled across one thread, tajuk dia, some thing like "AFUNDI zahid, support orang islam, jangan bagi kristian jadi juara." the christian fellow in this case was linda nawuwil tu la..

My, my, my. Now, saya bukan la nak state my religious stands ke ape ke, just nak question satu kepelikan saya la... Apehal tetiba crite pasal agama ni wey?? So, a few days ago, like i said, i tried to strike a healty conversation with an older man, much much older than me, he's in his early 40s. I told him about the forum. So saya cakap la, why, must one involve matters keagamaan in AF kan? By right, AF tu sendiri memang dah out ah dalam islam-islam ni, dengan pegang sane peluk sini, bukak sane bukak sini. Pastu budget nak defend islam ah by afundi zahid tu? Kalau nak ikutkan, by afundi-ing tu, anda ni da subahat dah dalam merosakkan image islam yang nak didefendkan sangat2 tu... Lepas tu nak sangat defend, pi top up sampai ratus2 semata2 tanak si "LInda the ehem" menang. Dah one form of pembaziran. Elok sangat la membazir tu? Jihad la tu eh? So dah tak consistent dah dalam perjuangan.

Then, this man said, "Itula kamu ni orang muda-muda tak faham. Islam tu melayu la.. Kita nak melayu menang. Tolong orang melayu. Selagi boleh tolong orang melayu ni kita tolong.Buat apa nak bagi orang2 kristian tu, yang bukan melayu tu menang hadiah2 tu semua?? Ini nama dia nationalisme. Tolong orang melayu." I, for a few seconds, was dumbfounded by the answer. What did he mean by nationalisme? Kita sama2 orang malaysia, national, according to the dictionary, means, Of, relating to, or belonging to a nation as an organized whole . So kristian ke melayu ke same je la kan? That's where i was wrong. At least by his principles. He said, "Itulah, kamu, orang muda2 memang takkan faham. Nationalisme tu semangat melayu. tolong orang2 melayu. Kamu ni nanti, nak kerje, boss cina, kamu ingat dia nak naikkan pangkat kamu? kamu kerje la macam anjing, takkannye dia nak naikkan pangkat kamu. Colleague cina kamu jugak yang naik nanti. Kamu kerja la dulu baru kamu faham. Baru kamu tau semangat nak tolong orang melayu. "

I replied, yeah, okay so this is about the battle of the races. Fine. I agree kita memang kena tolong sesame kita. i've lived with that concept my whole life and i'm okay with that. BUT, why must you involve religion in such thing? Melayu tak sama dengan islam, i said. Melayu is your race. Islam, is your religion. Your belief. Ada gak ape melayu kristian. I'm not saying aku support mereka2 yang da kristian ni. Tapi takbley la nak samakan dua bende yang sangat la berbeza. Cam orang putih tak sama ngan kristian. Ada buddha, hindu, apa2 lagi. Ada gak melayu atheist. So takbley la nak campur kan agama ngan bende cam AF tu... secara tak langsung mereka2 ni dah tarnish image islam. At least that's what i thought.

By then, i could see he was losing his patience. Ak ela, relax la, tu pon nak bengang ke? Aku nak borak2 je. He then said, "Kalau dah kate maksiat asal tak tutup je tv ni? Bukak tv pon kira subahat jugak." Muahaha.. apehal brother?? I thought we get wiser as we age. Boy i was a little bit wrong. And to that, i said, "I wasn't the one who said afundi islam dont afundi kristian. In fact, i dont even afundi. And i dont even care who wins. I thought i was having a healthy conversation." And i shut up and went on watching AF knowing i'm not gonna spend a cent to that damned AF.


Oh and yeah, i'll haramkan my mother's RM 4 to some stupid bastards who sold us 2 rotten ayam xx-ray. Tau dak ape ayam xxray? Ala ayam kat pasar malam yang tulang temulang je tu... Seriously the ayams tasted like shit. Muehehehe....
