The Vietnam communist or communist
countries never care about religions.

They treated pretty bad to all religion beliefs.
These Khmer Krom went to worship
at Protestant Church of Christ
Fellowship.

The Vietnamese soldiers beat some
of them to death.
So Vietnam will continue to kill Khmer Krom,Central Khmer until
vanish from the planet earth.
How cruel Vietnam is!

You are absolutely evil. Khmer Krom and Khmer not Krom lost their ways for a few hundred years after abandoning Hindu and grabbed Buddhism. All of the two religions Hindu and Buddhism were from foreign country. When they were with Hindu, they created the empire, when they follow Buddhsim, they lost the empire, and lost the whole KKK.

Now they found GOD, you (evil) is scared that KK may have more helps and more access to outside world and will get support. Because almost the whole world follow GOD.

You evil want KK to be disppeared.
Do you think ah Yuon didn't beat KK when they were Buddhists? Ah Yuon burned them alive in the Buddhist temples, not even just beaten.

KK now walking with GOD and they will triumph over ah Yuon. Even they die, there are more martyrs against Satin rising.

I am never tempted or lost control by your kind of low class evil talk.
GOD will TRIUMPH at the end over SATIN (Evils) such as Communist China not to mention a small evil like yourself.

Hi Missy 11:29 AM,
Why are you pissing off because of people chose their belief?
Buddhism is a foreign religion (from India/Nepal) that Khmers adopted about 800 years ago after Hindu, by Jayavaraman 7.
Buddha 's own people majority did not follow his teachings, so what is wrong for Khmers or others choose to follow GOD instead?

KK's awakening turning to GOD is their choices. Perhaps, among you who are fake Buddhists are mostly evils. No need to look far, look at your cursing, everyone must stay away from you.

"The Grace of GOD is their strengths". I pray for them and pray for their killers to.

The persecution in Vietnam is not new.

Million of Vietnamese people not just Khmer Krom people. They were missing and killed without a trace.

Viet Commies won't last too long for they commit such crimes against humans and against God.
Viet Commies are too paranoid, but God's time will come to judge them.

Is it real that Mr. Thach Thanh Noah was born in 1991? If so he is only 21 years old. How can he become a Deacon at that age?

I am very curious.
