Mind control and psychological weirdness.

Nothing biblical about it.

I was part of a church in the USA that was borderline weird... not that far out, but there were times.... it was all psychological.

That is common for many religions around the world. Religion seems to go hand in hand with patriotism for many religious people.

Jesus saves Korea sounds a lot like,

God bless America
God save the Queen
God defend New Zealand

Seems like they're releasing something.

Some people exercise, some people drink, these people throw themselves around in the name of Jesus.

But, yeah. They look like they're mentally disturbed.

Just let them be. If they want to give their money to that church, that's their right. It's a guaranteed right- just like freedom of the press and freedom of speech.

And that's the greatest blashemy in the world. God doesn't favor one nation over another. God resides in the hearts of men not within the borders of a nation.

Haven't we learned anything from the Crusades and the Inquisition???

Personally, I have faith in God, but I find humanity hopeless.

I like telling Christian Koreans who express anti-foreigner sentiments that Jesus was a foreigner too.

No no no. Jesus was Korean. It was just a jewish conspiracy to re-write the history books.

They used to die earlier due to being stupid in other areas, like tryign to befriend a tiger or something. Society has made life so much safer for idiots since 2000 years ago Smile
