What happened to them?

 abused its power

  Just round the corner is South Korea’s supreme court, which says the church has no legal right to much of this space.


 It ruled last month that the government of Seocho district, where the church is located, had abused its power by leasing land to allow the church to extend its below-ground footprint.


 Seocho’s then district chief, who is now a national legislator, has said he was lobbied by senior politicians to grant the lease.

It was approved in 2010 when the president was Lee Myung-bak, a Protestant who flaunted his religion (he is currently in jail for unrelated corruption).

The Church of Love may have to spend tens of millions of dollars to demolish the prayer hall. Or, as many observers believe, it may find a way of avoiding that.

Protestantism first came to Korea in the 19th century with American missionaries, but its political influence dates from the time of strongman rule. Rhee Syng-man, the country’s first dictator of that era, who was president from 1948 to 1960, was a devout Protestant who made Christmas a state holiday.

Park Chung-hee, who was president during South Korea’s rapid economic rise in the 1960s and 1970s, was a Buddhist. But he encouraged the growth of Protestant churches.

Mr Jun’s critics call him the “panty pastor” because he has told female church members they will become children of God if they take off their underwear for him (Mr Jun says his remarks have been taken out of context). His followers shrug this off. “Moon Jae-in is a communist and he’s doing the devil’s work,” says one elderly protester. “This is a spiritual fight.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"An unholy alliance"

What do you say in a nonsense situation?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“It’s wrong to spend all that money on fancy church buildings,” says Jung Byung-o of the Christian Ethics Movement, a Protestant group. Kim Yong-min, who runs a small church in a basement in Seoul, says his organisation is trying to stop right-wing

Christians from meddling in politics. The tiny space doubles as a studio for a political talk show and is piled with left-wing literature. He says most of his congregation supports Mr Moon.

 

Do you know this? Their story is that it's not all, is it?
