Meaning that neither of the people who were interested in the topic likely read down that far. :hehe:

Ask not what religion can do for Korea, but what Korea can do for religion.

Hmm perhaps they can create some tamagochi (sp?) type app which is a deitybot that judges your sins by trawling you and your friends social-media sites and penalises you based on the number of those sins. From taking the lords name in vain (5 points) "Sinner locked out of using net for one week" to getting drunk and kissing boy (27000) "Authorities notified: Public shaming across social media followed by stoning"

If it hasn't killed you by the time you die a natural death, they download your consciousness onto a flashdrive and give it to your relatives.

A Samsung flashdrive, of course.
