Kim Jong Il dead

Hopefully whoever takes over will be much different. It's like the twilight zone there.

This should be very interesting.

John McCain says he is headed to Hell along with Saddam Hussein.

[Woody]

Okay. Perhaps I misquoted him. For the accurate statement see:

McCain actually called it a warmer corner of Hell.

Well dgrimm - it he starts to rattle. We just may rattle HIS cage also. I'm sure Obama would welcome another conflict to replace Iraq. :)

WOODY

congress is still

up set about the war with LIBYA

dgrimm60

yeah. I agree. Old Obama never saw a war he didn't like. This is one reason why I just can't support Obama for another term. Not to mention that he has destroyed this nation with both his action and inaction.

The people 'mourning' for him, makes me think of Stockholm Syndrome.

Good diagnosis.

the people of North Korea honestly thought of KJI as a god. That's no exagerration. It's hard for us to picture it but the entire nation is brainwashed,literally. They're not normal 21st century human beings.

They're not normal 21st century human beings.

On the contrary, very 21st century. Go to any rock/rnb concert. The North Koreans had one God. The western world has many God's we call them superstars.

You only say that because you haven't listened to the testimonials of either N. Koreans or those who've visited there. There is a vast difference between the two cultures. Our superstars have failings that we recognize and choose to ignore at times. They entertain us. The North Koreans attributed life and health to their great leader, he could do no wrong. Go check it out, you'll be incredulous.

Doug, how do you know Lazarus hasn't listened to or read the testimonies of North Korean defectors? He was only making a point about having one god versus having many gods. You make it sound like you're the only one that has knows about North Korea. We all know about that place.

I've stated already that my information comes from those who have been there and report back what they've experienced. I don't claim that I'm the only one who knows NK., that's rediculous. I watched a filmed documentrary about a medical team (secular)who went to NK, given permission by KJI, to attempt a restoration of an old woman's vision who had gone blind. After weeks of treatment(and surgery),the bandages were taken off and everyone anxiously awaited the result (it was a 50/50 shot), it was a success. The first thing the woman was allowed to see was a picture of KJI. the only words that came from her were adoration and literally songs of praise for...guess who? It was exactly the same tye of reaction Jesus got when He healed someone, only KLI didn't do anything. Not a word of thanks for all the med team had done.As if they didn't exist. The producers of the (state approved filming only)documentry later added their astonishment at the reaction and noted that this was the same reaction in everyone they met there. Like robots, programmed only to think of one thing. I also heard an in depth report from a group of SDA physicians and dentists who had set up a clinic over there (KJI permission). They related the same kind of reaction to the mindset of the people they interacted with. Unlike anything they could have imagined existed in our modern world. I understand Laz's use of the "god" analogy but it's like comparing apples to guavas.Worshipping the god of NK is nothing like "worshipping" the Black Eyed Peas.These are not "normal"people. Very sad.

Perhaps you should have said apples to broccoli since a guava is a fruit. Comparing fruit with fruit is reasonable. In the west there is a greater degree of sophistication but its worship just the same.
