NOTHING beats a good hug when it comes to making up.
Taoist Federation chairman Tan Thiam Lye and New Creation pastor Mark Ng demonstrated this when Mr Ng showed up at the federation to apologise yesterday.
'With this, everything is yi bi gou xiao,' said Mr Tan, meaning Mr Ng's personal visit had wiped the slate clean between the two parties.
'It's good that we had a chance to talk face-to-face. Now we are friends.'
=> Enemies prior to that?
Mr Ng said: 'A wrong is a wrong. I have to take responsibility.'
The one-hour, private meeting held yesterday afternoon at the federation office in Bedok was initiated by New Creation. The request came after Mr Tan said on Tuesday that Mr Ng could do more to express contrition over remarks he made in 2008 that belittled Taoist beliefs.

He either thinks Taoist beliefs are a load of crap or he doesn't.

If he does, then the hug means nothing. If he doesn't, then he can't very well call himself a pastor anymore.

What a load of bull.

It is Bull shit.

The picture captures both NCC Mark hugging Tan but didn't show the horde of ISD officers standing beside!

How the whip can humble a holy man!:p

Gays are not welcomed by these Christian churches.

I dun understand at all...(Mr Ng said: 'A wrong is a wrong. I have to take responsibility.') Does that mean that he admitting that the christian's way is wrong and that the taoist's way is correct..Somebody has to be right and somebody has to be wrong, isn't it. By saying he wrong imply that the other one has to be right!!!

万法皆空，因果不空！

I think he is sincere. He will be ass fark if he goes to jail so its a "Thanks for saving my ass friend!" hug.

Look at his face again...........

 

[Alamaking]

I wonder who will want to listen to his Sermon?
Future all religious leaders who speak better go attend a course at ISD and get a certificate first.
