Is there a need to still go door to door trying to sell it? Why hasn't the One True Way reached critical mass yet? Could it be that, instinctively, the human race doesn't really need invisible behavoir controlling boogeymen anymore,and the movement is running on inertia?

The aim being to be photographed/videotaped passing out cookies, etc, in hospitals, orphanages, other tear-jerking locales, the better to drum up support for the church back home so that moksa-nim can get that Equus he's had his eye on for so long.

Despite hearing they were proselytizing, most accounts I have heard in the media say otherwise. Who has the dirt on this?

I agree completely. The BBC is reporting that Yu Kyeong-Sik: "cried as he paid homage to their two slain colleagues, saying 'we will live our lives for them'". Hmmm, shouldn't he still be living his life for Jebus? Thou shalt have no other gods before you!!! 10. I agree completely. The BBC is reporting that Yu Kyeong-Sik:

I think the keyword was 'Christian' but the word has evolved to include all sorts of stupid dogmas. Blame the Pope. Blame Luther. Blame protestants. Blame Mormons. Blame the Seventh Day Adventists. Blame the Messianic Jews. Everybody calls their church the 'one true faith' and it's all BS. Hmmm. I think the keyword was ‘Christian’ but the word has evolved to include all sorts of stupid dogmas.

Reminds me also of the poor Korean Christian who had his throat slit in Iraq after being videotaped bawling for his life. Again: I don't mean for a second to imply that I would have been braver. I would probably have behaved in the same way. But then, I don't believe in a hereafter, or a loving God who will always let happen what he wants to let happen.
