It is impossible to know the exact number of Roman Catholics in North Korea, or to establish a worthy estimate, as being Roman Catholic, or any Christian, in North Korea is a crime akin to treason. It is reported unofficially that more than 50,000 Roman Catholics are imprisoned there. Those that confess to being Christians are executed or sent to forced labor camps. It is reported that a North Korean General converted and was executed. Christianity in North Korea is largely based as an underground movement, receiving missionaries from southern China. Until 2005, the North Korean government had been lax in arresting and punishing Christians. However, recently, Kim Jong Il renewed efforts to exterminate Christianity from North Korea, fearing that it might usurp Juche, the official religion of North Korea. ref http northkoreanchristians.com christianity north korea.html ref References reflist See also Religion in Korea Religion in North Korea Christianity in Korea Roman Catholicism in South Korea Asia in topic Roman Catholicism in Category Christianity in North Korea Category Roman Catholic Church by country North Korea Category Roman Catholic Church in Asia North Korea RC country stub ru tl Katolisismo sa Hilagang Korea ...   more details
