Is that You God?

If you have been reading the newspapers lately, they seem to be highlighting a lot of plights regarding transexuals. Another article came out today which you can read here about how a transexual alleged that she was humiliated and forced to strip in front of three policemen after being detained for suspected vice. And all this happening right after the "infamous couple" incident.

I'm beginning to wonder
..."Is that You God? Are You trying to say something to the Church?"
 I actually went to the bookstore to find out how does the Church in general address this issue on gays and transexuals and reaching out to them. And what about gay churches? I was actually quite surprised that I couldn't find any...or maybe I was looking in the wrong bookshop.

Well, this issue has been around since Noah's time so why so hard to find a book that addresses this issue....maybe God is asking the Church and maybe specifically the Malaysian Church to wake up and do something about it. What say You God?

Calendar boy

The long queue snaked along the walkway outside Espanda club and it was only 8pm. At the entrance the organisers were busy giving away doorgifts and free drink coupons. Behind the stage, 30 nervous young men were getting ready for the final round of interview. Inside the club, it was already jam packed with people waiting impatiently for the event to start. There was hardly any standing space left and yet people were pushing their way through to get a better view of the stage while the long queue kept getting longer outside. Finally there were lots of cheering and wolf whistles, the young men were coming out to do the catwalk. Dressed in jeans and body hugging white T-shirt with "I'm A Hunk" printed in front, to show off their muscular bodies, all 30 of them looked liked cover-guy models vying for the title of....New Icon/New Tide's latest 12 Hunks of the Year 2005. In between interviews, there was also a special presentation from our Malaysian Idol, Daniel as we...

All I Want for this Christmas is....

This Christmas has really been a nostalgic one for me. I was window shopping these past few weeks for some Christmas gift ideas when I came upon Memory Lane the other day. What caught my eye was this little miniature wardrobe wrapped in bright, eye-catching colours. I was attracted to it and went in to take a closer look. It actually turned out to be a jewellery box shaped like a miniature wardrobe. It even has a little mirror inside and a turnstile inside one of the glass cabinets...to hang your necklaces in. Hmmm....good idea especially each time I take out my necklaces from my jewellery box, it all gets entangled and takes me forever to get them unentangled. Then nostalgia came in....I still remember how I got my first jewellery box. I think I was about six or seven of age and my favourite grandma used to come visit once in a while especially during the Christmas holidays. That particular Christmas, she came to visit and gave me a jewellery box for Christmas. It was made of...

Between the Devil and the...Angel?

And finally the final book of the trilogy, “The Devil and Miss Prym” is the most interesting of all. In this novel about temptation is a thought provoking parable of a community devoured by greed, cowardice and fear as it struggles with the choice between good and evil. A stranger arrives at the remote village of Viscos, carrying with him a backpack containing a notebook and eleven gold bars. He comes searching for the answer to a question that torments him. Are human beings, in essence good or evil? In his sophisticated plot, he shows Chantal Prym, a young, simple girl in the village, where he buried his eleven bars of gold. After showing her the gold bars, he shared his plot to proof his theory that the nature of human beings when confronted with temptation, will always fall. He explained to Chantal, “ Everybody in this village is honest, starting with you. I showed you the gold bar, which would give you the necessary financial independence to get out of the village, to trav...
