Pyongyang used to be called the Jerusalem of Korea, because it had so many churches.
The mother of Kim Il-Sung (the founder of the dynasty and the “Great Leader”) was a Christian, and he knew several Christian hymns, which he used to hear as a boy.
You never know what may happen...
They dont because their entire families will be executed if they do that.
You're right. I know.
I just wish we could find a way to get rid of totalitarianism, communism, fascism, everything with an -ism at the end.
Democracy; a Republic, sounds so much better.
I think humanity is improving, but it is such a long road.

Really? :)
You know what? You are right. With Christ, all things are possible.
We need to pray for the athletes and for the country.
Thank you! :)

I just had to smile at that ... :)
I've been watching documentaries about the Nazis and reading about the World Wars.
Take care, FRiend. :)

Please see my previous posts. It is a terrible situation.

I do too. In terms of wishing to get away from it. Bowever I do not believe humanity is improving. I guess it depends on what you are defining as improving.
Still, it beats the hell out of being executed with an anti-aircraft gun.
Kim Pig Un has a new set of headphones now, his friends and buddies as well.
Obama would send them back.
Its only serious rival is the Apple iPhone 6S Plus.
I agree, I don’t think humanity is improving at all.
I hope the Nork weightlifter that won gold at least licked the medal. That’ll be the last “taste” they’ll ever have of their winnings...
North Korea - the creepiest country in the world...
