They do. Just watch documentaries regarding North Korea and stop making assumptions.

They dont worhsip him as a higher power deity (aka God-religion), I dont need to watch a western made anti communist propaganda documentary on them to know that

Dude, you need to stop with the idiocy and watch a film about the DPRK.

They worship their leader as a supernatural deity. Watch the videos of when Kim Il Sung died. They aren't 'Western-made anti-communist propaganda documentaries'. They are simply people smuggling in cameras to film what they are allowed to by the government, and show how deplorable conditions are.

Its absolutely deplorable what they go through. Of course, if you want to be brain-dead and not learn about what opression looks like, feel free to continue blindly.

Well than, that has to do with thier own stupidity, because worshiping a mortal man as God is retarded, and it sure as hell doesnt compare itself to relgion, which was my point in the first place

It doesn't change the fact they do.

If you read your Bible, you'd notice that people worshipped anything and everything, regardless if it was intelligent or not. Paul noticed that the Greeks had a statue they worshipped to an unknown God at Mars Hill. Therefore, it shouldn't surprise you that the North Koreans have turned their leader into a diety to be ascribed worship to, and attribute miracles to him.

So I'd say that it does compare to organized religions. They have a deity, they have a church, they have preists, they have a holy text. Go read up on Juche.

North Koreans worship their leader as a God. North Koreans are oppressed and are trapped in poverty. 

Germans worshipped Hitler as God, Russians worshipped Stalin and Lenin as Gods and the Chinese worshipped Chairman Mao as God are just a few many examples of the leader being a God and leader of a cult like fanatical religious following.

Islamic nations with dictatorships have a corrupt rich and powerful man as leader who uses Communism and Religion to oppress the people to maintain power and control. Egypt and Libya are clear examples of that where an evil man rules as dictator and the majority of the people are trapped in poverty.  

Modern dictators of the last 100 years have been very similar to Medieval kings, warlords and Egyptian Pharoahs. All the nations wealth is in the hands of one King or Queen and he shares some with his friends, family and military. The rest of the population are expendable slaves and live in poverty.
