In reply to: MESAYA 's message, "Let's not confused by our ADAT (based on Bisaya Identity) and our RELIGION (based on universal theology, which is owned by all races and ethnics)" on 07:40:02 05/13/02 Mon

Ta'ak maaf kalau ikau 'confused" Liau. Lainka niatku na' ino. Kalau ikau ngambaca balik postingku yang patama, sarata manding maya yang kaduo, aku pikir confusion ino malap alan ngurang.

Firstly,matrix both ideas that I have put forward. You'll get the answer. Where to insert Adat,eventhough we may be Christian. I am not sure of Islam anyway.

Secondly, get the meaning of Religion & Adat. Having an anthropological background, I may have different meaning and interpretation than yours. Eg. In anthropolgy, we say Islam is not practising polygamy (both male & female can marry more than one spose), but polygyny (man marry more than one wife). While polyandry means woman can marry more than one husband - don't know which community does it. What we saw & heard on TV or in Forum Perdana (on Thursday night - I like watching it for knowledge & understanding)they say Islam practising polygamy!

Yang paralu, marisa' pidombo Adat ino sala' lam Agama. Pidombo adat ino onjop 'compatible' maya jaman ite. We all can see it. To name a few for eg. Banding, Alai Anding, bagandang, comaptible or not with contemporary world? Is it agints any teaching of religion - sama ada agama duniawi atau samawi? Puod- is it relavant or compatible with religion and humanitarian principle or current way of living?

Aku onjop mancadangkan NGADA' but transformation.Just for illustration Lam Seminar Kebudayaan Iban 1993, Dtk Ujang lam keratas kerja no mara', tagulu yuro Dayak nyambut uli' ngalap ulu/ngalolom, minum ai jalong. Kajunno, masa ite onjop malap ngalap ulu, yang malap kajun no ngalap PELUANG (dagang, sakula, influence, etc.). Suda' kalap celeberate with something good for your health.Gawai Dayak State Level and now Federal level is an example of transformation. Gawai was initially related to beliefs (thats why the Ai Pengayu).

Most of us would ask, How? God answer is, we must seek for it.
