A Sunday church service story
This story was told at this morning Sunday church service.
A priest was driving along Marine Parade Road in the center lane conforming to the 60kph speed limit. A car came at an higher speed from behind to very close, then veered to the right to overtake. The driver could not do so as there was a taxi also driving within the speed limit and which was not overtaking. This driver then switched back to the middle lane, tailgated, flashed his car headlights and honked, but to no avail. Then finding a gap the driver cut left, overtook and cut back in front of the priest. As it overtook and sped off the driver showed his finger sign. The priest also looked and noticed that that driver had a rosary hung from its rear view mirror; only Catholics use the rosary, and this Catholic had hung his rosary to display his own religious belief.
"Walau eh", the priest said, "This Catholic showed his finger sign to me, and I a priest leh !!!"
This story was told to illustrate how people display their religion and their religious practice.
