今次介绍的,是基督教(以香港通俗的说法,包括新教、改革教、福音派等)如何看一
些宗教礼仪。
天主教朋友都听过,「基督教」只有两个圣礼或者礼仪,就是「洗礼」(或称圣洗,浸
信派称为「浸礼」,Baptism)和「主餐」(Holy Communion,The Lord's Supper,圣
餐礼,天主教和圣公会称Eucharist)。
A)浸礼/圣洗/洗礼(Baptism)
很多所谓「基督教」书(相信主要是福音派)普遍宣称「基督教」的 Baptism是指「信
而受洗」,只有象征意义。
其实,信义宗和圣公会对「圣洗」保留了很多和罗马天主教相似的特色,甚至仪式也很
相似。
「圣洗」方面,信义宗、荷兰改革宗、长老会、圣公会、循道宗都接受婴儿洗礼,认为
除了象征意义,也包括神的工作。部份宗派如信义宗也信婴孩是有「信 」的。他们也
认为在洗礼里面,神有特别的工作,具有恩典和拯救的功能,并且是旧约婴孩出生后行
割礼归入神家而在新约的表记。篇幅所限,我不能多介绍。
福音派(主要浸信派)因为觉得婴孩是有「信 」的说法不合理,乃排拒之。他们认为

被告Thomas Chung Tam早于上月10日初审程序开始前,由代表律师柏德芝(Donna Pledge)向主审法官贝华(Judge C.Brewer)表示,被告承认两项性侵犯罪名,法官昨批准主控官甘文(David Clement)的请求,撤销被告其余三项性剥削及两项性骚扰的控罪。

拥有 0.6%苹果股权、 7.4%迪士尼股权的乔布斯,至今仍未有公开捐款行善的纪录。因现时没有一座医院大楼、一座大学校舍以他的名字命名,故令人认为他不是慈善家。在他 1997年重回苹果后,他以提高公司利润为由,关闭公司内的慈善部门, 1986年立 NeXT时曾创立基金,在一年多后亦告关闭。
虽然不能排除乔布斯一直都以匿名人士的身份行善,甚至低调地计划死后捐出身家,但两名亲近乔布斯的好友则透露,乔很少谈及行善,早前更拒绝加入由微软创办人盖茨( Bill Gates图右)及股神毕菲特( Warren Buffett)发起的「捐献誓言」( The Giving Pledge)计划。
他的好友又透露,乔布斯以发展苹果、如何组织强而有力的苹果团队作为生活焦点,特别是他发现患病以后,其他一切事件都是让他分心之事,包括捐钱。

5月24日,美国国务院以签证为由,要求孔子学院中国教师限期离境,引起全美数十家孔子学院,以及和孔子学院合作的大学,一片哗然。
把这两件事情连系起来,不难看出,中国利用孔子学院向全球传播文化和语言,被西方一些右翼分子,当成是中国政府宣传软实力的工具。

本人认为,中国政府应该做好如下工作:
其一,保持冷静的态度,认真研究对方各种持不同观点和态度的人群,采取有效措施,争取亲华力量,尽量化解冷战思维人士的冷战态度。
