Historians depict it, there is no solid way to say its true or it was the real meaning! if it was really a Buddhist thing why was it used in non-religious places also? If you read the history you would know that! The Catholic church history backs that part.
Btw, if this was regarding a temple.... all the Buddhists would be praising me... Since this is not a temple, you'll are acting like this!.... Buddhist idiots!!!
You cannot argue history! Because history is just translation of what a person depicted. All the translators of our ancient history are Buddhists... If you don't understand, your a idiot not worth a dime. However this is why our Church History in Ceylon plays a role. A history well documented and not based on beliefs or depictions. The Church is always more organized than Buddhists... do you ever see our Priests acting like thugs trying to burn down mosques?

Its human nature.Read the history... during the polonaruwa period the moon stone was used in places other than temples.
You see the church is not what you many Buddhist think it is. Unlike temples, priests are never given administration power for more than 10 years. Its mostly 2-5 years. The idea is that if the priest does make a foolish mistake the next administration will correct it. And as you see from the Catholic's here the people have responded saying its wrong... but if they can challenge the priest the Priest will remove them or if they complain to the bishop with unquestionable facts the bishop can intervene and force the priest to remove it.... but for the last 3 years it has NOT HAPPENED.... I wonder why....
Christian's at Elakiri are in no agreement to waste there rep for religion. Both Christians here who argued the facts are basically full of money and are not worried for the church. These are the same people who fight with bishops, priests when they ask to change the dress code worn for mass. One more thing to ad is that Mr. Rovin is a small fellow... he does not know left to right of whats right or whats happening in the country. The Prem Nivasa incident in Moratuwa opened the eyes of a lot of people.... Rovin has never taken the side of the religion anywhere on Elakiri.... So I was expecting the double cross from him. He is what we call "Catholic for the name". Remember these are the people who kept quiet when people at Elakiri ran around with "Jesus was Buddhist Monk" book published by a Buddhist website.
I'm not a spokesperson for the church. I do not intend to be. However Elakiri has been a central point of Online Influence and Internet propaganda and has far out reach than that of Facebook taking into account its Google rankings. This power is being used to fire wrong information around the island and as a Christian I reserve my right to stop it or minimize damage to some extent.
Your also like the Buddhists who confuse Sinhalese Culture and Buddhist.... Your Parish does not depict your religion or Parish Priest... your parish depicts your spineless people.
If not for us you'll would still be changing mass times to avoid the loud pirith.
You have no idea of what happen do you? We never wanted conflict, we wanted to avoid conflict. But your spineless people just like you thought we wanted conflict...
We don't want to අඬබෙර anywhere... but remember we speak because we can... and you wine and cry like a baby because you can't.

If Buddhist's were so tolerative, why do they make such statements like "The great robbery of the Thewatta Church". You Sinhala Buddhist's are wolfs in sheep's clothing.

The original post of this thread does not condemn the images or its origin that are displayed. They tend to say that we have got the WRONG idea from the images. IE. They say the OIL lamp is not the cross. But in the end, they forget to see that the King's Crown consists of a cross which they do not want to show the people.
If the historian's here looked back. You would see that there are two versions of the Moon stone. The church is separating the the Sinhala Tradition from the Buddhist Tradition. I am a Sinhala Catholic and I embrace Sinhala Tradition. Under noway am I to embrace a Buddhist tradition.
If we are going to challenge the past. You must remember that the origins of Sinhala race Begins with Dirty work with a King Banishing his son and his friends. Also to remember that Buddhism is a philosophy. And those who embrace the "Nirmala Budu dahama" are fortunate to not to answer to the calls and powers of the devil. Lord Buddha never ask people to do Huniyam and Gurukam against others.
The cross of St. Thomas at Anuradapura is a key to Catholic's Not to Christians and I appeal to all, to not confuse the two. I am not going to say that Christian's didn't kill women with children in the name of their religion. You must remember those same religion's at the same time attacked the Catholic Church, and the Borders of Rome (Now known as the Vatican City) and tried to take over the office of the Pope. But remember those were broken away parts of the Church who did not listen. They acted like Muslims sects who attack in the name of God. Note that they no longer called themselves Catholic's! In short, Catholic's have never been the killers but always have been the killed
So, to conclude this, I would like to point out that many here who spoke in this thread have no challenge at all against the Holy Catholic Church nor at the Thewatta Basilica and I beg them to try harder next time. All they did was say I am wrong making up stories as to who I am. If they are Buddhist they will in the next life reap of what they have said. And I urge all Buddhists to remember that our Family history proceeds that of what you believe about your sacred things, these will one day be tested if the "non-nirmala" Buddhism meets the Technological West. As H.E. the president said "Don't throws stones at others while living in Glass houses".
Live your religion, it matters to you. Respect others. This country is not a total "Buddhist Country" until one Sinhala person of another religion exists. Also remember that we as a country have Lost everything trying to proclaim a Sinhala nation attacking Tamils. We only have the tourism area right now for revenue. And guess what! 2 of 3 of the world Population is Christian's who will never visit a country that attacks their religion.
Want to attack Christian's and proclaim Sri Lanka as a Buddhist Country??? Be My Guest! Stop arguing with me like a bunch of depressed retards on Elakiri.com and try to do attacks in real life! Again.... let see how far that goes

Sinhala Catholic!
what does that make you? a male prostitute? OMG! Christianity is not a දර්ශණය. "I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church" Bible Matthew 16:18! Establishment of our Religion! not දර්ශණය. Where did Lord Buddha tell "WORSHIP ME" I WILL HELP YOU. I WILL NEVER DIE!!!
I'm in a catholic school and I have been going to your CHURCH for more than 13 yrs,never found any such god that matches your description.
