I do not understand what the need for religious school?

Shouldn't religion be taught as extracurricular activities as non-formal activities that students participate in outside of school hour?

And I can't understand why parent enrol their children to private religious school/tahfiz school?

When master jawi, Bahasa Arab and quran, can advance fast in many areas - smooth ride in cocurriculum marks, getting job, etc

And parents will be guaranteed a place in heaven - just by doing so.......hehe

Shhhhhh...........the founder of Judaism wouldn't have expected or predicted such an effect.

But, absolutely! Because clearly, the only way a religion that’s been around for over 1,400 years and spans billions of people could ever be weakened is by a secret conspiracy. Forget internal politics, economic challenges, or global dynamics—it must all be part of the grand Jewish plot. How else would anything happen in the world, right?

人生是很累的，
你现在不累，以后就会更累。
人生是很苦的，
你现在不苦，以后就会更苦。
没人在乎你的落魄，
没人在乎你的低沉，
更没人在乎你的孤单，
但每个人都会仰视你的辉煌。
天空不会因为一个人的眼泪而布满乌云，
世界更不会因为缺少谁而失去色彩。
除了成功，拿什么证明你的存在？
没有靠山，自己就是山！
没有天下，自己打天下！
没有资本，自己赚资本！
这世界从来没有什么救世主。
弱了，所有困难就强了。
强了，所有阻碍就弱了！
活着就该逢山开路，遇水架桥。
生活，
你给我压力，我还你奇迹！
努力的意义：
不要当父母需要你时，
除了泪水，一无所有。
不要当孩子需要你时，
除了惭愧，一无所有。
不要当自己回首过去，
除了蹉跎，一无所有。

You can build peace/prosperity/haven in this world or war/suffering/hell in this world. The choice is your.

Just a thought had anyone come back from dead to tell you how haven and hell look like in the after world?

But in this world just watch the news and you can see haven (peace & prosperity) and hell (war & suffering) in this world.

Absolutely, it depends on how a country stay away from getting caught with hutang keliling pinggang and paying high interests - ultimately this excess money will indirectly go to fuel wars around the world- oppressing the weak

So, it all depends how a country do the annual budgeting - excellent ones make progress to heaven for the whole nation; bad decision gets the nation to the wrong destination (hell for all)

Whether peace, prosperity, war, or suffering dominates the world often hinges on the choices made by individuals, governments, and societies. The metaphorical "heaven" and "hell" can indeed be seen in the physical realities of different nations.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Building Peace and Prosperity ("Heaven on Earth"):
Good Governance and Financial Prudence: Effective budgeting and resource allocation are fundamental to fostering national prosperity. When a country avoids excessive debt and mismanagement, it can invest in infrastructure, education, healthcare, and sustainable development, uplifting the well-being of its citizens.
Justice and Equity: Ensuring that wealth is distributed equitably, opportunities are accessible, and systems of justice are fair helps create societies where people feel secure and hopeful.
Environmental Stewardship: Nations prioritizing renewable energy, conservation, and long-term ecological balance tend to create environments that are sustainable and nurturing, where future generations can thrive.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Creating Suffering and War ("Hell on Earth"):
Corruption and Exploitation: Corrupt governance, when resources are misappropriated or squandered, often leads to economic collapse, unemployment, and social unrest. The burden of mismanagement and excess debt can ripple through generations.
Inequity and Oppression: Countries that concentrate power and wealth in the hands of a few, while oppressing the majority, breed resentment and social fragmentation, leading to violence, civil wars, and suffering.
Military Aggression and Imperialism: Money spent on militarization and warfare fuels global conflicts, often benefiting powerful elites while leaving destruction and poverty in its wake. The oppressed are left vulnerable and marginalized.

The Role of Annual Budgeting:
As mentioned, how a country plans its finances reflects its priorities. An enlightened, sustainable budget can lead to peace, education, healthcare, and stability, while poor financial planning—especially with excessive borrowing—can lead to economic dependency and fuel conflicts that propagate suffering.

In essence, the "heaven" or "hell" we experience on Earth is largely the result of the decisions we collectively make. From how countries manage debt to how they allocate resources, every action shapes the global landscape of peace or conflict. It highlights the role of leadership, foresight, and collective responsibility in shaping a better future.

One of the reasons mankind relying on religion maybe because of fear, the unknown death.

Everyone want to go to heaven but no one want to die and go to heaven because no one had come back from dead to tell heaven do exist.

So why wait for afterlife when you can build your heaven in this life?

They are not foolish. Consciousness is a product of the brain’s physical processes. This is based on extensive evidence that changes in brain structure and function directly impact conscious experience.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Neural Correlates of Consciousness: Modern neuroscience has identified brain networks closely tied to conscious experience, such as the Default Mode Network (DMN) and the Global Neuronal Workspace (GNW). Functional MRI (fMRI) and other brain imaging techniques show that specific patterns of neural activity correlate with various states of consciousness, such as wakefulness, attention, and self-awareness.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

These findings suggest that consciousness is inextricably linked to brain function. If certain parts of the brain are damaged or non-functional, consciousness is altered or lost, implying that the brain is necessary for its generation.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Occam’s Razor: The principle of Occam’s Razor suggests that the simplest explanation that accounts for all the evidence is usually the best. The evidence overwhelmingly supports the view that consciousness is a product of physical brain processes. Introducing a non-physical, supernatural, or extra-brain consciousness adds unnecessary complexity to the explanation without empirical support.

Evidence from Coma and Brain Death
Clinical cases of coma and brain death illustrate the direct relationship between the brain’s functioning and consciousness:

Coma: When certain brain regions are damaged, particularly those involved in arousal and awareness, people fall into comas, where they lose consciousness. These states are reversible in some cases, demonstrating the dependence of consciousness on specific neural activity.
Brain Death: In cases of brain death, where all brain activity ceases, there is no recovery of consciousness. Brain-dead individuals cannot think, feel, or perceive.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Split-Brain Experiments: In patients who have undergone corpus callosotomy (a procedure to sever the connection between the two brain hemispheres), their consciousness appears to split. Each hemisphere seems to have its own distinct awareness, pointing again to the role of the brain in generating unified conscious experience.
If consciousness were not dependent on brain function, we would not expect such profound changes in memory, identity, and awareness with changes in brain structures.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Brain Evolution: Higher-order consciousness, including self-awareness, appears in species with highly developed brains, like humans, primates, and some mammals. As the brain evolved more complex structures, such as the prefrontal cortex, consciousness emerged as a way to process information, anticipate outcomes, and navigate complex social environments.

Soul? The idea that consciousness can exist without a functioning brain is not supported by scientific evidence. All available data suggest that consciousness is deeply tied to the brain’s physical processes. The fallacy lies in assuming that consciousness is an independent entity when it is, in fact, an emergent property of brain activity. Whether through clinical evidence, evolutionary theory, or neuroscientific research, the physical brain is shown to be essential for generating and maintaining consciousness. Attempts to separate the two introduce speculative and unsupported claims that fail to account for the wealth of evidence linking consciousness to neural function.

Unlike PAS, science is fundamentally about challenging ideas to make progress, not about badmouthing, slandering or discrediting others for personal or political gain.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Wake up! At its core, science operates through a rigorous process of inquiry, skepticism, and continuous questioning, with the aim of improving understanding and advancing knowledge. To conflate this with badmouthing—an attack on individuals or ideas based on malice or personal bias—completely misunderstands the nature of scientific inquiry.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

One of the hallmarks of science is peer review and open criticism of ideas. This is not an attack on the individuals proposing these ideas, but a way to test, refine, and improve theories. Every hypothesis must withstand scrutiny and be open to falsification. The entire scientific process depends on the willingness to challenge prevailing assumptions to uncover the truth.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

According to Prophet Popper, falsifiability is the idea that for a hypothesis to be scientific, it must be testable and capable of being proven wrong. This principle encourages scientists to challenge ideas and find weaknesses in them, not out of malice, but as a way of advancing understanding.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Every groundbreaking theory—whether Newton’s laws, Darwin’s theory of evolution, or Einstein’s theory of relativity—was subjected to rigorous debate and scrutiny before being accepted by the scientific community.
Unlike badmouthing, where the intent is often to undermine or humiliate, the critique in science is designed to strengthen ideas by addressing their limitations and proposing improvements. Without science many parts of the world would still live in darkness. And many children's brain development would be compromised.

The scientific method demands open-mindedness and the willingness to revise or discard even deeply held ideas if evidence contradicts them. This is not a form of antagonism or bad-mouthing, but a commitment to truth over personal belief or dogma.

Without it, science would stagnate, relying on unchallenged assumptions rather than constantly pushing the boundaries of knowledge.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Focus on Ideas, Not Individuals: The scientific community is careful to critique ideas and results, not the people behind them. When scientists argue against a theory, they are addressing the methodology, data, or logic, not engaging in personal attacks. In fact, many scientists work collaboratively, challenging each other’s ideas in the pursuit of better answers.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Badmouthing, by contrast, is about denigrating individuals, often based on personal grudges or emotional reactions. Science, by nature, rejects such behaviors because they do nothing to advance the pursuit of knowledge.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Refining Ideas: Many scientific breakthroughs have arisen from failed experiments or the realization that existing theories were incomplete or incorrect. For example, the shift from Newtonian physics to Einstein’s theory of relativity was not an attack on Newton but an evolution in understanding.

And now the shift from soul-based consciousness to the emergent theory of consciousness of the physically evolving brain

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Science thrives on its iterative nature—each new piece of evidence, whether it supports or contradicts current ideas, is valuable. The process of refining and updating theories based on new data is how science progresses. This iterative process is fundamentally incompatible with badmouthing, which seeks to tear down rather than build up.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Science stands in contrast to dogma, which resists change and criticism. In dogmatic systems, questioning established ideas is seen as a threat, and dissent is often met with personal attacks or dismissal. Science, however, encourages questioning as a means of achieving a deeper understanding.

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Rejection of Certainty: True science avoids claiming absolute certainty. It is always open to being challenged and revised in light of new evidence. This constant questioning is not about badmouthing but about humility in the face of complexity.
