Mr. Z was on his holiday in Malaysia. He was at Kuala Lumpur in the weekends so he decided to go to one of the local churches around the area where he lives. At the church, there was a line of ushers welcoming people. The ushers were extending their hands to warmly greet the people so Mr. Z extended his and shook their hands. As he was about to clasp the hands of the usher, the usher retracted his hands and the handshake was merely a touch on the fingertip. Finding that oddly weird of a handshake, he waited till the service was over and went and ask the usher out of curiosity, "Excuse me, but I was wondering if it was the custom of a handshake to just touch the fingertips?". The usher replied, "No larh..I just didn't want to dirty my hands from all the handshake."


Mr. Z grinned with disbelief and bode him goodbye, wondering in his heart "I wonder if Jesus was thinking the same..".
