Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Saw someone comment that Korean cult JMS/Providence (known for sexual exploitation of young women) is present in Malaysia under the name of Gospel Act (see comments under this video)

Does anyone know anything about this? Not surprised though as I’ve been approached by weird Korean girls talking about the apocalypse in PJ… and have seen cult-like stuff going on (including some MLMs).

I had met some aggressive Korean gospel groups but not this one before.

[–] rakyat@monyet.cc 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I’ve met some too. Wondering why so many of the aggressive gospel groups seem to come from Korea.

i think all religion is cult-like, and i say this as a Christian.

i'm sure those catholics think us protestants as some heretic also.

[–] rakyat@monyet.cc 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well, as an atheist, I got no comments on this.

But at least mainstream religions don’t do weird shit like demanding sexual favors from believers.

could get weirder, read up about Taiping rebellion. 20 million+ deaths, more than WW1 all cause someone thinks he's the brother of Jesus..

Oh yeah, I’m aware of that. Some say it’s why China fears religious movements so much nowadays.

Try as they might, those foreign cults will never fill the hole left in our hearts since the fall of our very own Kerajaan Langit…
