That's what happens when they hang out with “THE MOST INTERESTING MAN IN THE WORLD”.
Were they drinking Dos Equis?

Well, the only monk that *I* have any respect for now is Art, who had a great career with the Redskins. For the record, any religion whose women are skinheads like Sinead O’Connor, and whose “leader” is dead and buried is of no interest to me. Bob

Actually.....it only looks like self-immolation.....he was smoking and drinking 180 proof at the same time...he got a little sloppy with the shots.
But seriously folks...if it’s pagan, it’s pagan...what do you expect.

These guys screwed up. The crimes seem non-criminal to me.

“The stakes for 13 hours of gambling were more than 1 billion won ($875,300),”
Where do monks get that kind of moolah to squander? They must be Democrats. I would not be shocked if the K Gov’t supports them in some way

What tenant of their faith did they break? Seriously? The converted Buddhists I know are commies. This seems harmless in comparison.

At least they weren’t buggering little boys and spending huge sums of money to keep it all hushed up, like that other soul-harvesting franchise.
To: LibWhacker
Just more proof that the human condition is the human condition. Any person (of “the cloth” or not) who appears to live IAW God’s Laws is just better at maintaining secrets than the rest.
