Korean Churches Remain Open Despite Itaewon Cluster Infection Fears
It is probably only a matter of time before a cluster infection happens at a church, if one does happen, it makes me wonder if the government will use that as an excuse to close all the churches again?:
Churches and temples remained on their toes Sunday, taking strict precautionary anti-virus measures, in the second week since the resumption of their public services following COVID-19 outbreaks.
South Korea eased strict social distancing guidelines on May 6, allowing churches, state-run museums and libraries to resume operations.
But following a recent resurgence of virus infections, traced to clubs in Seoul’s nightlife district of Itaewon, reopening churches and temples remained highly vigilant. Some religious groups reported fewer on-site worshippers this weekend, compared with a week earlier.

Church is big business here.
But not as big as in the United States where the church has a powerful hold on that country’s political landscape.
J6, everyone is religious. For some, they worship the Triune God. Others worship the State (like PRC) or Leader (like North Norkistan). Still others revere a man who married an eight-year old girl. But it’s Moloch (infanticide for money) and the Baals (perverse voluntary body functions for money) who seem to control politics in America and much of the rest of the world.
