I know it's somewhat easy to look at North Korea almost as a joke due to our media's slant and bias, but stay mindful of the fact the North Korea situation is one of the most heartbreaking tragedies of the modern era.
That's true and I ache and pray for the repressed people there. But one thing a totalitarian regime can't stand is humor, especially when it is aimed at them. They love people to cow tow to their every whim...no deal here.

Instead of attacking North Korea and its citizens, view their positive aspects, just like how Christ focused on the sinner's good qualities, rather than on their sins.

Actually...
that isn't really what Christ did.

Christ never ignored sin; he always commanded people to repent.


As far as being more polite to the people of North Korea... uhhhh...
do you think any of those people can read anything we even say?
They don't have internet access like we do.
Most of them don't have any internet service, and those who do have restricted service.
They aren't free, like you are, to come here and read these comments.

They don't have any idea if you're being "positive" about them or not,
because they have no freedom to visit forums like this.

I didn't say to speak about their positive qualities, I said to view their positive qualities.

It doesn't matter if they can hear what you say or not. The fact of the matter is: you are talking smack about others behind their backs, pointing jokes at them. They can't see nor hear it, but God, who discerns all hearts, can.

Now stop mocking others and start doing productive things.

I will now view the positive aspects of the North Korean regime.

They are frugal with their use of military funds since their military hardware is close to a century old!

Children are not allowed to become unruly!

The government guarantees food for all (some being more "all" than others)!

Kim Jon Un teaches Christians dependency on Christ by stripping them of all independence!

They have wonderful march tunes!

The great leader is good to his people by building vast museums...that they cannot walk through!


I could go on and on about how North Korea is a worker's paradise!

You forgot about their sore hands from such robust clapping...uh oh, there I go again.

Learn to respect the cultures of others. If you can't, then don't bother talking about them. Nothing good comes from mockery.

We're not addressing cultures but a totalitarian regime that needs exposing of the evil that it is.
Your political correctness is over the top and simply a reflection of the high school slop they are spoon feeding our kids today.

If I am not incorrect the woman in that picture is Ri Sol-Ju, the wife of Kim Jong-Un. The fact she is even known to be Kim's wife and is seen in public is pretty significant as the women connected to the Kim family are rarely seen or mentioned. It is thought by some that Ri Sol-Ju isn't her real name, but is a pseudonym. As is typical with the DPRK regime very little is actually known about her, even her exact birthday is unknown.

Another interesting little fact is Ri Sol-Ju and Kim have a daughter together. The existence of their daughter is still kept secret within North Korea itself, though it is not secret outside North Korea. The West and wider world was first made aware of their daughter's existence by none other than Dennis Rodman.

Lonesome Road is my favorite DLC of the Fallout franchise. Great ride.

Come to think of it, I liked all the New Vegas DLC's more that I did Fallout 3's.

Yes, I'm aware of North Korea's anti-Christian history, but I won't spend time attacking them, as this thread is.

Yeah yeah yeah, they have views which contradict Christian values, but that doesn't give us the right to create and distribute photos poking fun at them.

If you are going to troll, at least troll well.

I guess they got their internet back. Someone who claims to know, says the CIA did it! Good for them!

Time this wretched horrible dictator was brought down for once and for all.

[h=1]Matthew 5:43-48[/h][h=3]Love for Enemies[/h]43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?48Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
