Creamtastic / National Skyline Local Christian Artists Are in Cahoots with North Korean Stalinists. Just Think About That.

Posted by Sean Maloney on Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 11:12 AM

I don't really have nice things to say about Evangelicals or Stalinists and the idea of Evangelical Stalinists just freaks me out, so I'll keep the political commentary to a minimum. That said, local CCM hit makers Casting Crowns played at a nutty, state-sponsored, despot appreciation day in North Korea. This is the second time Casting Crowns have played there. As in, twice--weird.

I guess attendance is pretty much guaranteed--who doesn't love playing for a packed house. We all gotta go for the money gig once in a while. But was nice to see a local band on national teevee.

Do Evangelical Stalinists purge themselves? This could work out...

Just think about this...people in America are becoming less tolerant of freedom of religion and freedom of speech than those in North Korea.

Coming from an objective viewpoint: If they are ministry minded, Then they probably view it as an opportunity to spread the gospel to communists. Oh yeah, and kingsbury, I could care less who your dad is.
