Good sign that at last Tamil Hindus and Buddhist Sinhalese getting together. Our loyalty is not to London or Rome.

Christianity Arrived With Guns and Soldiers Tuesday, 27 September 2022 07:29 AM

Why such inter religious prayers never happen in Christian churches ? Because Christianity came to Sri Lanka on European gun boats to convert the Sri Lankans to their faith. As such Churches will not accept Hindu or Buddhist worships inside the Churches.

Not all officers here are Tamils and Hindus. I also used to go to all churches and temples when I was in uniform and that is the military way. So, please correct it.

Singhalese kill the innocents Tamils and then go to the Hindu temple for blessings. This is the Sinhalese way of doing things.

Food first religious place last Tuesday, 27 September 2022 10:09 AM

The religious persons must realise by blessing these persons paid by printed money, they are encouraging of inflation to become more monstrous. For donation, they allow other worshipers lives to become a lot worse by allowing the parasites/military printed money paid types to show off themselves this way.
