What did you do today?

Just saw the movie, It was good. Lois Lane is one tough lady. Bouncing like mad in the plane and she could still stand…

This is a picture of me taken by a friend after watching Puteri Gunung Ledang. I would say the movie was good, that picture shows me in PGMS (post good movie stupor).

Some say that a scene from the film showing an army from Demak cladded in arabic styled clothing pilaging a Javanese village as inappropriate. They say as if it was supporting the notion that muslims are people bent on pilaging and killing.

I however prefer to take the viewpoint that the film was really showing the dangers of people using religion as an excuse for whatever evils they are doing. A metaphore of what happening all over the world, using whatever religion.

Religion, in my humble opinion, should be used as a tool for decision making. One may do something because of his religion, but anything done is done by the person himself. If anything evil was done, religion shouldn’t be an excuse. It is never an excuse.
