We Christians of all denominations are indeed happy of your appointment. You have a bigger assignment from God for your people. We pray for revelation into your spirit to work it outside for the glory of God.

What a beautiful sight to see one religious leader giving due respect to the other.

Dheen Saturday, 27 November 2010 08:22 AM

Hi Malkanthi I am totally agreeable to your comment , especially Christmas round the corner.

Your Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith, we as Catholics are very proud of Your Eminence and we hope that you will not accept a "Benz" car as a bribe. If such gifts are given without any malicious ideas, why not . May the Almighty God Bless you and your next step could be a "WHITE CAP" which will be a very great honour to our dear MotherLanka.

Its indeed a proud moment for all Sri Lankans.

Yes, the DM Heading is very appropriate. His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith is our own Cardinal. He is for all the Sri Lankans irrespective of our religion, culture, creed, race and most importantly our political beliefs. A true religious leader respected by everybody.

His Grace Cardinal May God pour His Spirit into you to mould the Christian church of Sri Lanka in the great riches of Catholicism. Yes , one great blessing to this country your election to the High priesthood of Cardinal.

I think, this is unique; every Buddist should see this and learn from it, in order to build a united Sri Lanka who respects all the faiths of its citizens.

saranga Saturday, 27 November 2010 08:58 PM

Yeah I think Sri Lankan people should learn from this and be united!

Rajitha Sunday, 28 November 2010 03:52 AM

only the buddhists should learn?
