Call them! Just tell them you love them!
[I have seen many converts to many other religion, but none as heartless and as ruthless as new-christian converts. read: non-catholic christians.
I seen Muslim,hindu and many other religion converts that still pray to their dead taoist parents on their last day on earth, however, personally having witnessed too many incidents of "christians" talking to to their non-christian parents about how "god" is their father and how they refused to even hold incense, even if the surviving parent beg them for 1 last time before the coffin close.
Only new Christian converts do this. They acknowledge God, but disown their own parents who raise them up. They refuse to even give 1 last respect to dying people. I seen crying mothers who begged the son to burn incense for 1 last time to father closing coffin, but he not only refused, but still proudly declare he is christian now, cannot touch. After attending his father funeral, i refused to have all ties with this fella.
If a religion tells people to disown their parents and own care about their own selfish beliefs and words, then to me its a cult, main stream or not.
No other religion openly talks bad about other religion and belittle others as ferociously as christians in singapore.
If Christians in Singapore think about why others are so resentful towards, them, then its time they take a lood look at their own practices before condemning or behaving like they are victimized.]
Actually Christians are not suppose to bow to dead carcasses!
When a person died, his spirit and soul are gone, what is left is just empty dead shell which formerly houses the spirit and the soul. when you are bowing to the dead person, it makes no difference to bowing to a table. It is stated in the bible that holding an incense is compared to praying to idols, which God displeases!
Instead of equating holding incense to a dead person as respect, why not ask if he treated his dad well before he was alive?
That will be more accurate accounts of having respect for his parent. No point giving him grand funeral if he is not treated well when he's alive.
If you force people to hold incense even though he's not willing, you are the cult yourself. Because you are superstitous! I really thank God for giving me an understanding parents for not forcing me to do things which God displeases.
Only superstituous folks watching on the sideline can make such and insensitive comments during a personal tragedy such a funeral.
