This days people get furious over another fellow not first saying greetings to them, and some of this people go far as asking for this greetings,
greeting is something you do at will no sentiment attached,i dont have to know you before i say hello,you know.
When people ask for greeting what they actually asked for is worship, man should only worship God ,it is foolish and senseless to start asking for greetings from other people,instead greet. the wrong thing about asking for greeting is noted in the bible in the case of Haman and Modacai .
Haman was closer to the king and held an important position in the kingdom, at that time modacai is nobody to reckon with, so haman noticed that modacai does not GREET HIM when ever he passes ,so haman got furious,and wanted to punish modacai, but he said modacai is too small for me to deal with so i will deal with anybody that had anything to do with modacai. at that time haman was ready to wipe away the generation of modacai ,because modacai refused to greet, to caugth the story short God used esther a jew the wife of the king to punish haman and even led to his death,youcan read the book of esther to get the whole story.......PEOPLE HIDE UNDER THE UMBRELLA OF CULTURE TO ASK FOR WORSHIP,ONCE YOU ASK FOR GREETING,WHAT YOU ACTUALLY DOING IS ASKING FOR WORSHIP.... DONT ASK FOR GREETING IT IS WRONG,YOU RATHER GREET.OK
