Moonies founder the Rev Sun Myung Moon dies in South Korea at 92. Self-proclaimed messiah who formed own church and presided over mass weddings leaves behind huge business empire. But I assume his followers will spend the rest of their miserable lives praying for him to come back or something. Man, religion has to be the easiest get quick rich scam in the world. All you have to do is get the gullible to accept your lie and you get to take their money tax free--it doesn't get easier than that.
I hope it was slow, painful and disfiguring. That would only begin to pay for the lies he told....

Wonder who's gonna own and control all that?

Reamus: They always seem to get away with it, no? Ok, Hitler offed himself, but Pinochet lived for a lot of years before suffering a bit at the end. I hope there is a hell, and the good reverend is there finding out who his new buddies are.
JDM: I bet they sell off everything and return the money to the poor fools who joined. Right. Give his family a generation or two and they will legitimize themselves. Unless, that is, one of them wants to be a iving messiah. GMB

Wow, your description of Moon sounds like what Romney's obit could read.

Well, dguzman, you know that Romney is a bishop in the Mormon cult. Just saying. GMB
