Nothing disrespectful about your Park comment at all.

Beopjang, former patriarch of the Jogye Order donated his body after his death. http://joongangdaily.joins.com/article/view.asp?aid=2617430<BR/><BR/>2) Re: Pak Jeonghee. One need not be a "mythical figure" to be worthy of crucifixion. Your comment informing us of Pak Dokje-nom's ability to cry for his dead wife is a bit cringe worthy, disrespecting those who most vehemently fought his rule and struggled on in the name of their friends and comrades who he tortured and killed. His crying for his dead wife doesn't make him any less of a homicidal, torturing bastard. The fact that he did know love and sorrow makes his sins all that more horrible and his failure as a human all the more tragic. Had he simply been a psycho/sociopath, devoid of feeling, he wouldn't be worthy of crucifixion, but rather the asylum.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
