Pastor’s apology
09 February 2010
This apology was posted on the website of the Lighthouse Evangelism church last night, headlined ‘Urgent message from Pastor Rony’:
‘I have received a number of e-mails from people who have been saddened and hurt by the testimonies of an ex-monk and an ex-nun. I realised that my presentation and comments were wrong and offensive. So I sincerely apologise for my insensitivity towards the Buddhists and Taoists, and solemnly promise that it will never happen again.
When we received those e-mails, we immediately removed the video clips from our website. I urge those who have posted those clips on YouTube to remove them as well.
After reading the frank views from those e-mails, I was also prompted to tell my members not only to continue to love souls, but also to respect other beliefs and not to ridicule them in any way, shape or fashion.
Let’s put our goal to build a harmonious Singapore a top priority.’
