This is what Cynical Investor wrote in his piece, ‘Black Saturday: a great day to laugh at Amos’ stupidity’.
‘Today is Black Saturday or Holy Saturday, a really sad day in the Church calender because Jesus died on Good Friday and was entombed on Saturday and his followers at the time didn’t know that he would be resurrected tomorrow, Easter.
So it’s a great day to sneer and laugh at Amos because by the end of today US time, Amos would have spent 124 days in jail in the land of the free, where the buffalo roam.
Add that to his jail time of 50 days here, he would have spent 174 days in custody.
What a born loser.’
I would not dispute with Cynical Investor on the things he said about Amos Yee being locked up for 174 days. Those were indisputable facts. Whether Amos is a born loser is hard to say as, just like Jesus, Jesus was hung for committing no crime and did he ended up as a loser?
The Christians would definitely said Jesus was and is a big winner, with hundreds of millions of believers today. So being wronged for a time does not mean that the wrong cannot be put right. One day Amos may rise again and many would believe in him though many today did not believe him, just like the Jesus' disciples and followers at that time did not believe he would rise again. I did not say this, I just quoted what Cynical Investor said, ‘and his followers at the time didn’t know that he would be resurrected tomorrow, Easter.’
Some want to split hair with me by saying that Cynical Investor did not say they did not believe in what Jesus said but just ‘didn’t know’. Didn’t Jesus tell them but also told them in public, that he would rise again? No? How come even the non believers then knew about this but his fellow disciples and believers did not? If Jesus did tell them, how could they claim not to know as what Cynical Investor said? Are they deaf, dumb or simply did not want to believe in what Jesus said?
This is funny stuff. Jesus’ disciple’s did not believe him or did not know what he said. It is funnier that his believers today still did not believe in a lot of things Jesus said. Jesus said he ‘was sent only for the lost sheep of Israel’. How many of his believers believe him or did not believe him? Jesus said that on Judgement Day he shall come and judge, and some will go to heaven, some will be burn in the sea of fire. How many of the believers believe in Judgement Day, that Jesus would come down to judge them and only then the righteous or those judged by Jesus could go to heaven? How many of the believers did not believe in this and claimed that they can go to heaven before Judgement Day, before Jesus judge them?
Who are the born losers, those who believe in what Jesus said or those who don’t believe in what Jesus said?

Rb, this piece too difficult for me to understand leh. My mind is regressing with age.
cynical investor is no spring chix...neither are a whole bunch of us..what amos did at his age..none of us would ever do even if we have our youth again..the bravest thing CI ever would have done in his youth would probably be to forge his parent's signature for lousy school reports. it is difficult then..to comprehend CI's mocking..as obviously..amos n CI are born with different sized gonads. so what if amos spend more time in US jail currently.. his future won't have been any rosier in Singapore in the long run..given the state of Sinkie democracy..at least amos had the courage to venture into the unknown

“KEEP FOCUSING ON JESUS”
Chang said, “I always remember how he (Pastor Kong) helped me, all he taught me. It’s important to be here in his time of need. You always stand by your family. They may not be perfect, nobody’s perfect, but they’re family. When he’s down and out, I’ll stand by him.”
Each pastor also had a message for CHC members. Chang said, “Have a simple heart towards God. Have a simple heart towards your leaders. Have a forgiving heart for anyone who is down and out—not just the leaders, but the people who are next to you. We are in the job of reconstruction and rebuilding the image of Christ and not tearing [it] down.”
Li encouraged the church with these words: “Keep focusing on Jesus. He’s the author and finisher of our faith, He’s the anchor of our hope. Just keep looking to Jesus. He’s in control. Everything is in His hands. He knows what He’s doing, even though sometimes we may not see what we expected but God is in full control and something glorious will come out from all these things.”

You see, when you see Jesus, you don't see corruption. You don't see deceit and lies. Those are just imperfection to be brushed off because Jesus is the perfect leader who will lead them to the promise land.
When Amos looked at the church history, the impish child in him and his irrepressible logic just couldn't keep his big mouth shut and scolded Jesus, together with the rest of the aweful leaders who had made a mess of people's lives
Unfortunately, most are clueless and couldn't understand that Amos had passed a judgment unacceptable to people who revere leaders
By leaders....we meant the anointed, the Christ

You sure the church believed in Jesus?
Amos passed the right judgment and shook the political and religious establishment from east to the west
Who are the born losers, those who believe in what Jesus said or those who don’t believe in what Jesus said?
RB
Never mind what or who they believe or don't believe, but born losers for sure don't believe in themselves.
So Jesus, or whichever God lah, will also not help those who did not help or believe in themselves.
But I believe Amos believe in himself. That's why he is willing to suffer for so long in jail because ultimately he knows he will win. In fact he already won by being granted asylum, tio bo?
In other words, Amos has to make sacrifices, maybe just a bit more and longer, in order to win mah.
The Church is busy focusing "within". It is a self centered journey of wholesome destruction.
Blind as a rotten and corrupted bat
Amos Yee proved that under USA laws, he meets the American criteria for political asylum.
"Political asylum is the right to live in a foreign country and is given by the government of that country to people who have to leave their own country for political reasons."
https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/political-asylum
Someone may ask for political asylum when they are frightened to live in their own country. They will then go to another country.
If they are allowed to live in the new country this is called political asylum.
People who seek asylum are usually victims of threats, physical harm or denigration of their human dignity as these are violating their human rights.
The political asylum is one of the human rights affirmed by Article 14 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and a rules of international human rights law.
All countries who have agreed to the United Nations Conventions Relating to the Status of Refugees must let people, who do qualify, come into their country.
People who qualify for asylum are those who can show that they might be badly treated in their own country because of their:
Religion,
Political opinions or
Membership of a particular social group or social activities
Personal lifestyle and sexual orientation.

Easter 2017: Resurrection In Action
In closing, Pringle said, “Christ in you is the hope of health when you’re sick. He’s the hope of justice, the hope of financial well-being. He is the hope of honor, the hope of progress and the hope of friends when you’ve been betrayed. He is the hope of fullness when you’ve been empty, the hope of employment when you’ve been unemployed. He is the hope of a house when you’re homeless, the hope of a child when you’re bound, the hope of peace when you’re angry. He is a hope for the future when you think you have none.”

PAP very comfortable with such messages or good news. The Church is always useful to clean up their "righteous deeds"
It's all in the mind lah.
For instance why the Sinkie opposition is not strong and united? Because in the mind of their leaders, all want to be generals but no one want to be soldiers.
So in their mind all they want is to have the good things for themselves, without making sacrifices like what Amos did. And in the mind of smart Sinkies, all they want is to make money for themselves if they can.
So like that of course the Sinkie opposition is not strong and united lor, and this is to the great advantage of PAP, who also helped themselves (especially their late LKY in the past) to be what they are now.
Jesus is better than PAP. Your HDB flat will make money while others will soon see its value fall to kosong and why?
Because you focus on Jesus! Tio Bo?
dont play play
you know today is what day or not
today, dont anyhow use HIS name JESUS
dont play play
Sometimes God also seems to help those who helped themselves through destroying their enemies. Because their opponents did not help themselves by being strong so as to be a deterrent against attacks.
And Kim Jong Un helped himself by having nuclear weapons. So God also help to protect Kim Jong Un from being attacked by the USA who like to help themselves by attacking their enemies.
Ignore Amos "wild side" or whatever you dislike about him
He passed a judgment and shook the establishment.That's it
One should always hunt for ones' comfort.
Wherever one finds happiness shall be a blessing.
Just ignore what others say.

Like most Singaporeans, you assume that the PAP government cares (whether the highly qualified and able bodied Singaporeans are gainfully employed or not).
Sin thrives on positive thinking(plenty of it in the media). The spirit of positive thinkers extend to religion too.
It screws with the mind with often false hope or blind faith but never resolve core issue.
To the adulterous woman, go and Sin no more.
Let the leaders play with peopl's lives. See how long they going to maintain the charade with idiotic sinkie sheepers.
After all, very good blood money to earn hoooor

For PAP, this is no issue at all as long as the NUMBER OF VOTERS WHO VOTED FOR PAP FAR OUTNUMBER
THE VOTERS WHO VOTED FOR OPPOSITION.
Positive thinking aka
placebo(false or fake medication)
will NOT CURE.
Any prolonged fake
measures only make
things worse and ultimately follow by great pain and suffering.
Will Sin Leeders care about their fellow countrymen ?
Maybe they will sell the people to
be serfs of aliens.
PAP believe in Sinkie voters.
PAP believe that majority of Sinkie voters will never vote for parties which are not ready to be govt.
And I also shared PAP's belief in Sinkie voters, although I don't like PAP. That's why I very much wish to join the Sinkie opposition to contest elections and even have the means to form a political party, but did not do so because the party is not ready to be govt.
To conclude, and unlike Chee Soon Juan, I don't want to be in politics to be a loser, let alone a big loser like Chee Soon Juan.
“It has indeed been a very painful and trying season for us as a church, and I pray that God will bind our wounds and bring reconciliation to the church. I also pray that the church will lift its eyes towards God and hold fast to the vision that God has given us, to be revival carriers to the nations and to make disciples, teaching them to live out the Great Commandment, the Great Commission and the Cultural Mandate.”
Fool says there are lessons to be learned from how others have treated the church. “In this trial, we have seen how a biased press can manipulate minds, even those with no direct encounter with the church, to see us in the worst light possible. We learn that words can hurt and half-truths are enough to distort reality. Therefore, we must learn not to repeat the way we approach matters and try not to be too quick to judge or gossip.
“We ought to focus more on building ourselves up amidst all this. Since a tree is known by its fruit, the best way to justify our faith and our leaders is to make a conscious effort to live our lives righteously, striving daily to keep loving God and His people. Those to whom reason appeals will see that we are not what we are made out to be.”
“I am constantly amazed at your resilience and perseverance. Your united stand in prayer and worship has been miraculous. As we now approach the future, even though not everything seems to go the way always expect, we can remain in great faith, knowing our God is the God of Hope and that He is the Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Even though, now for a time your faith is tested, when you emerge, it will be finer than gold.
“As we stand together supporting Sun, Pastor Aries and Pastor Bobby, we will see the congregation increase and progress forward with the vision of Jesus: ‘I will build my church’.
So nice and the judges reduced their sentence.
Why Pastor need to live in Sentosa Cove? Why Pastor need so much money for themselves?
To my simple mind, this is already a dead giveaway about something not right for a Pastor, and what he/she is preaching or doing.

Does it matter (to the Pastor of course), when that Pastor still has a big congregation which is willing to give even more?
Does it matter (to PAP of course) that PAP is getting screw up, and despite PAP ministers being paid million dollar salaries, when PAP could still win 70% votes?
lt is pure insanity to believe in a female pastor that cork around shamelessly.

Amos is a most unlikely vessel. Ostracised and one who has the guts to walk out on an education system most regard as sacred or ticket to success and prosperity. When no one dares to take on a strong man, he egged the power to take him on.
The ruler actually went for the kill - who is a vessel of an Unknown Power( smart right? )
"In 2015, Mr Yee insulted Christians, saying Jesus Christ was 'power hungry and malicious' and 'full of bull'
In the eight-minute clip posted on YouTube, entitled Lee Kuan Yew Is Finally Dead!, 16-year-old Amos Yee Pang Sang likened Lee, Singapore’s first prime minister, to Jesus Christ and said they were both “power-hungry and malicious but deceive others into thinking they are both compassionate and kind”.
To be fair, it was the ruler who put Jesus, full of bull, in the spotlight of "hate speech".
Better take heed what you highlighted as "hate speech" from an Unknown Power?

Anon 1:38, This is a very well written piece of sophistry that led many blind sheep to the slaughter. Blind sheep like beautifully written sophistry to explain away all the wrongs to make the wrongs appears to beright. I feel very sorry for the innocent young to be misled by such writings and continue to be blinded and led astray.
All faults, deceits, lies, wrongs can be explained away. Just believe blindly.

In this Worldly Realm of Life, we have the Beasts who are Ferocious, Animals who are gentle and naive.
Likewise, we have Human Beans just like them. Some Human Beans are Ferocious Beasts in disguise to be gentle animals who are gentle and nice.
In this superstitious World, most human beans even they classified themselves as well educated are still unsure of themselves in beliefs and thoughts.
The most powerful beans in this Realm are actually the Doctors, the Religious Leaders and that includes the Mediums or Shamans and the Politicians
These people can bring chaos, sufferings and false beliefs to those trusting and naive beans.
The Doctors can played God as their words of your life and death comes from the mouths.Depending on whether they are crooks or principled Doctors to save your lives or out to make a quick buck is only known to them.
The Religious Teachers can preached to the naive and Dafts of their teachings and conned them into believing them. Likewise the Mediums who controlled the superstitious minds.
The Politicians whether they are charlatans out to fleece you or to serve you.
Also, in humans, we have many thise who thinks that they know all. They take pleasures in browbeating and battling others.
Been egoistic in nature, they think that they are smarter than others. The real truth is that they are what Melayu called Sobong Bodoh.
Arrogant And Stupid in the eyes of others.
So, just let these Sobong Bodoh lived their REALM OF unnatural world and be perpetually be in an natural world of their own.
So, this Cynical Investor is one of the Sobong Bodoh who just think highly of himself and this behaviour can be a symptom of insanity who needs medication.
As Christians always preached that the trials and discrimination of their sufferings in this world are their God's trials of their faiths, so just let them be.
A crooked Preacher in any faith will capitalize the weaknesses of their believers in their evil ways for themselves.
Leave them to be at the Mercy of the Maker that they prophesied. The believers in their beliefs on them are their choices. So cannot said whether they are right or wrong to you. To each their own beliefs in happiness or guilts
