Funny how more religion didnt turn this guy into a better person, ...seems to have had the opposite effect in fact. Might be a lesson in there for all of us.
Kinda feel like the number of times pastors, priests, and other religious leaders have gotten caught doing this reflects some kind of pattern, I just can’t seem to put my finger on it…
Most research shows that child predators seek out positions of authority and trust in order to best take advantage of youth. It not only forms a relationship of trust, but one of fear if they speak out. Id imagine it’s way easier to become a pastor/preacher/preist than it is a teacher, or school liaison officer, or community leader.
Not saying there aren’t problems with the church/religion as a whole. Christianity especially, most Christians now days represent almost everything Jesus spoke against.

As an atheist, I find it surreal that I behave more in line with Christ’s teachings than most Christians I know. And I know the bible better, which is also weird.
There’s just no way this alternative school can be viewed with anything other than contempt and suspicion even before this would have come to light. I hope it’s not government funded because the idea of the government endorsing this as the gateway and representative for life on this side of the divide would certainly be a bad look, but even if it’s independent, defectors are given a stipend when they start their new lives in the South, and they don’t usually have any experience with a capitalist system making them vulnerable to hucksters and scams. The idea of this “school” run by religious weirdos supposedly possessing the means to teach others how to interact in a liberal democracy would be difficult to believe on its face and lo and behold it’s a bunch of a kiddy fiddler’s looking for victims. I cannot imagine falling prey to these bastards after escaping such degradation and hardship to begin with.
When are we going to learn that religious factions are a breeding ground for sex pests. Not all religious people are sex pests, but there is enough in there to think twice about leaving vulnerable kids.
The South Korean government really doesn’t give a crap about North Koreans. You should watch this documentary where you can hear them explain how they were treated.
