Let's keep things simple, "faith" is belief that is not based on proof. But if people choose to have faith, that is their choice as far as I'm concerned. Cheers!

Okay, then perhaps it might be an issue of semantics/ terminology.
In the vernacular (secular definition), some people ask "what is your faith": which in this case, means: " what is your religion".

Philosophy: In ALL human endevors involving the element of Hope, Faith is by definition present.

Thank you for your acknowledgement in my interest in the study of religion (comparative), 'specializing' especially the Christian viewpoint although I admit no professional qualifications in this regard.

PA CCC: the perfect training ground for PAP MP-wannabes to rubber-stamp everything without thinking...

TDY: PA’s blank cheque mystery unsolved, but processes ‘are stringent

Even if 10 grassroots leaders (under guidance of the PAP MP/ MP wannabe 'advisor to grassroots organisations' did the work, they will still screw up cos they all they only do is rubber-stamp job!!!??? Even blank cheque also 3 ppl rush to stamp stamp stamp with BOTH eyes closed (and dreaming about their next 3week pan-European holiday)....... Guess the only person in-charge was the welfare pay-cheque recipient who conveniently wrote "eight thousand dollars only" and "8000.00" in the blank space: and the transaction went through promptly until some PA staffer found out about it ~6 months down the road...
Even the person personally handing Mr Khoo (welfare recipient) didn't check if the correct amount was written for Mt Khoo's benefit and prudence in using state funds.
If it starts with blank cheques, I wonder where all this $ misappropriation/leakage nonsense ends...

HHH cf. LHL: sauce for the goose is also sauce for the gander please.

If you believe that AGC is corrupt that means you should just move out of the country as the country is inherently corrupt.

Separate events but question about space occupied and the activity conducted therein run in the same vein.

Singapore gohmen runs short on cash, obtains Sports Hub through hire-purchase???!!!

http://news.asiaone.com/news/sports/...ms-sandy-pitch
"While the Government did not pay anything upfront, it will bear the construction and operational costs of the Sports Hub, which includes the Singapore Indoor Stadium, the OCBC Arena and the OCBC Aquatic Centre.
The Government is making annual payments over 25 years to SportsHub Pte Ltd, which manages and runs the Kallang facilities. The first payment was made in August 2010, when construction started."
Sounds like a very complicated contract/agreement to me. I really cannot understand why the Singapore gahmen would not pay up immediately like in the case of the public buses enhancement scheme where S$1.1billion is budgeted and promptly paid e.g. as and when the 550new buses are delivered.

Does this complex arrangement also allow the Singapore Sports Hub consortium (Pte, Ltd) to postpone/cancel the national day parade or provide a 'sandy-pitch' if the Singapore gahmen is either late or short in its annual payments???!!!

In case of a contractual dispute with the international consortia: will the Singapore gohmen be dragged to settle the case at the international court of justice @ Hague like Pedra Blanca was settled: & become a laughing stock to the world/ print excessive $$$ to pay its debts like the now bankrupt country of Zimbabwe under Mugabe???!!!

Will upcoming Project Jewel@Changi airport (projected to costs S$1.47billion)also be obtained on hire-purchase???!!!

Given the obvious future public-funding liabilities (25 yrs for sports hub installments): was the president at least invited to rubber stamp his consent given the fact that national reserves might well have to be used should gohmen revenue be in short fall (budget deficit etc) for the 25 installments over 25 (or more) years???!!!...
