Somehow I just couldn't get to sleep this morning after my night shift. It wasn't a busy night, probably been surfing on the net too much!
joss sticks in temples can be seen throughout Asia. A land where Christianity is not the mainstream faith, or way of life, as some puts it.
The reason, probably at least have something to do with the practice of ancestor veneration - 'Chinese Rites controversy'.
The confusion remains since most people do not make the distinction between ancestor worship with ancestor veneration. The two are quite distinct entities. With a distinct difference in intent.
