Going door to door and selling your beliefs and trying to influence how people interact with society, seems political.

Please note I said 'visa', not 'planet'.

From K-immigartion

Quote:
Religious Affairs (D-6)
Application Eligibility

o Those that are dispatched to the chapter registered in Korea by the foreign religious body or social welfare organization
o Those that are dispatched to the related Korean religious organ by the foreign religious body or social welfare organization
o Those that are engaged in missionary work or social welfare invited by medical or educational facilities operated by their organization
- Except those that are paid by the said organization
o Those that practice asceticism, train, or study at a religious body recommended by the Korean religious body

So next time they knock ask to see their 'Korean religious organ'. If they don't show it, then show them yours.

I would love to have that *beep* who wakes me up every Sunday morning deported. I'm sure they're violating some law.

The world would be better off with more Mormons and less Muslims.

Hah! I honestly clicked this thread because I thought it read "What kind of visas are MORONS on?" LOL Very Happy

Those darn Mormons better change their official name because, just going by how many people read "mormon" as moron, it is clear there is some seriously damaging word association going on in the minds of westerners. LOL

Funny you should say that, I heard from a reliable source that they are thinking of changing it to Idjits.

my favorite question:
what do you call 1000 Mormon Missionaries at the bottom of the ocean?

A darn good start!!!

insert rim shot here

man I hate those people with their bait and switch tactics. I always tear down their signs for free english lessons when they come to my campus. I work at a church affiliated school and i know the admin doesnt like them either.

If I had the opp in Thailand i would of knocked the living sh it out of them for pulling that crap in front of a Wat on a Buddhist holiday

Exactly! Peace and non-violence should be the last thing we tolerate on a religious holiday. Laughing Talk about disrespecting Buddhist principles.
