Going with FC, would need to look into their doctrinal standards to render full judgement.

Going with MC.  It has some good features, but any church the emphasizes prosperity theology is not an FC in my estimation.  Indeed, given its size, maybe it can truly be said to be one of the few megachurches while most of those given the title are actually kilochurches.

What a waste of f-cking money. The whole lot of it.

[DC Al Fine]

Prosperity gospel types. HC

Crap

Prosperity megachurches are absolutely terrible in the US and elsewhere.

Does anyone know why Evangelical Protestantism does so well in South Korea? It's like the gold standard missionary success story. I just remember how when I was in college the main pro-life group on campus was like 90% Korean or Korean-American. And don't even get me started on Asians For Christ...

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Historically, Christianity has been attractive because it has been at various times seen as being in opposition to Chinese Confucianism, Japanese Shintoism, and North Korean Communism. In particular, the imprisonment of Korean Christians in the 30's and 40's for refusing to worship the Japanese Emperor led to an association between the religion and Korean nationalism.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Any church that teaches prosperity theology is a HC.
