North Korea is a communist country. Darwinism and atheism had a profound influence on communism. See: The Darwinian foundation of communism and Darwinism and communism/Nazism and Atheism, agnosticism and humanism: Godless religions
On April 30, 2013, Business Insider published an article entitled The 12 most corrupt countries in the world which declared:
It's clear that corrupt activities by individuals and governments – to the tune of trillions per year – have a huge impact on the world economy. But since corruption generally involves illegal activities that are hidden until exposed, it's very difficult to assess a country's societal or private sector corruption.Of course, this is not surprising.
Transparency International's 2012 Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) does the next best thing by ranking countries and territories based on how corrupt their administrative and political institutions are perceived to be on a scale from 0 (highly corrupt) and a 100 (very clean).
North Korea ranks 174 out of 174 countries and earned a score of 8 out of 100.
There is little foreign investment in North Korea, and the country is plagued by structural corruption in its political and bureaucratic system since the early 1990s when the Stalinist North Korea collapsed. Entering or leaving The Hermit Kingdom requires large bribes.
Atheists are big promoters of evolutionary pseudoscience which has deep seated corruption which reaches to the highest levels. Consider this piece of information : "The prominent Harvard evolutionary biologist Marc Hauser resigned in 2011 during an investigation by the Office of Research Integrity at the Department of Health and Human Services that would end up determining that some of his papers contained fabricated data." Plus, we know that evolution is not based on science and a person's "gut feelings" plays a major role in evolutionary belief. Sounds a lot like astrology doesn't it? See: Evolutionary gut feelings
Bottom line evolution is not science. It is pseudoscience. That is why evolutionist cannot satisfactorily answer the 15 questions for evolutionists of the Question Evolution! Campaign.
Communism, atheism and evolutionism
The article The blood-stained ‘century of evolution’ points out how evolutionism supported the ideology of atheistic communism and it declares:
Communism also took evolution to its logical conclusion. If everything just evolved from ‘natural law,’ then man’s opinion, not God’s Word, determines what is right and wrong. If the working class can take power by armed struggle, then this is ‘right,’ regardless of how many must die to bring in the socialist paradise. Communism’s death toll far outranks the Nazis’—probably more than 90 million worldwide.
Some have suggested that the bloodthirsty deeds of Stalin were an ‘aberration’ from the revolution’s ideals. However, it was Lenin, the ‘father’ of the Russian revolution, who ‘perfected the science of mass killings,’ and total, merciless brutality as the ultimate method of political control. Evolution was the chief tool used to brainwash communism’s masses into ‘scientific atheism.’ If everything just evolved, then everything is at the whim of the most powerful, and there is no Maker to whom to be answerable. Hence Stalin’s belief that killing millions of people was no worse than mowing your lawn (grass is our cousin in evolutionary doctrine). [Author's note added May 2012: while Stalin undoubtedly believed this, the notion that he said something like this appears to be a miscitation--CW]
Mao’s reign of terror and lies resulted in the deaths of tens of millions. It is no coincidence that his two favorite books were by the evolutionists Darwin and Huxley. With millions dying from his forced famine, his physician records that Mao said, ‘We have so many people we can afford to lose a few.’ His successors have since persecuted and killed hundreds of thousands more.
Such overt ‘state’ evil makes it easy to forget what the Bible teaches about the evil within all of fallen mankind. Despite communism’s decline, the basic philosophy of evolutionism (i.e. man’s opinion, not God’s, is the ultimate authority) remains securely in control. They’re not shooting people scrambling over the Berlin Wall anymore, but millions of people are being torn apart in their mother’s womb in ‘democratic’ countries.
For additional information, I would highly recommend reading Creation Ministries International's article entitled Biblical Private Property Versus Socialistic Common Property by Rev. Professor F.N. Lee.
