Brazil probes Moonie land purchases
The church owns some two million acres in Brazil
By Tom Gibb
BBC South America correspondent
The authorities in Brazil are investigating the purchase of vast estates close to its border with Paraguay by the Reverend Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church.
The church owns large amounts of property, including an entire town in Paraguay.
Members regard Revered Moon as the messiah
The area is notorious for smuggling and money laundering and Brazil's authorities are worried about a foreigner owning so much land in a border region.
Since the mid-1990's, the Reverend Moon's Unification Church has been buying up land both in Brazil and in Paraguay.
It now owns some two million acres in Brazil, a vast tract of farmland which has been called "New Hope Ranch."

Prologue
"I pulled the wings off the fly so that it couldn't get away," explained Moon to a rapt audience of several hundred young disciples. He had been telling us about one of his experiences in prison. "I was dreadfully lonely," he said. "My only companion was a fly. I spent hours each day watching it. I watched it clean its legs. I loved it so much that I didn't want it to escape. That is why I pulled it's wings off."
This occasion contrasted with those meetings in which Moon brings his followers to a fever pitch by exhortations and threats. "Are you willing to follow me?"
The response is a deafening "Yes" accompanied by clenched fists raised in unison. Sun Myung Moon, a 76 year old Korean industrialist, owns a munitions factory, a titanium plant, a ginseng refining plant and he is a successful real estate entrepreneur in the U.S. He is also the increasingly well known creator of, and alleged messiah of the Unification Church. Moon founded the church in Seoul, South Korea, in 1954. Today the church claims more than half a million members in 50 countries of which the big three are Japan, the U.S. and Germany. Seventy percent of the membership has been claimed since 1971. In the State of New York in the last few years Moon has purchased over nine million dollars worth of real estate. Under the banner of the Second Coming, Sun Myung Moon commands the allegiance of thousands of young people. They finance and operate a network of front groups whose sole purpose is to catapult Moon into a position of prominence and eventually of absolute power in American politics. By the fall of 1969 the church was acting as a political pressure group in the nation's capitol. From March to December of 1970 I was head of the Unification Church's political arm in the United States(The Freedom Leadership Foundation). On Moon's behalf we sought to defuse the Peace Movement and buttress the hawk position by convincing senators and congressmen that there was substantial grass roots support for a hard line stand in Asia. In 1969 we were just scratching the surface. Today Moon's organization is in a position of vastly increased power and prestige. Through the Freedom Leadership Foundation and it's descendant CAUSA, Moon has won the gratitude and respect of many congressmen and senators, not to mention former presidents Nixon, Reagan and Bush. With The D. C. Stirrers, an inner city track club, Moon parades as a conscientious church leader doing his bit for black teenagers in the nation's capitol. The Little Angels, a Korean Children's Folk Ballet gives him an entree into the entertainment world. Thr ough the person of Jhoon Rhee, director of a mushrooming chain of Korean Karate schools, he enters the world of amateur and professional athletics. Through annual conferences on the "unity of science," he presents himself as a philanthropic patron of the sciences and the humanities. With his burgeoning fortune Moon has the resources to underwrite scientific research and to endow fellowships in Universities. If Moon's movement in America continues unchecked, he will soon be able to directly influence the outcome of elections.
In Korea Moon's is the only "Christian" group that has not suffered at the hands of President Park's brutal suppression of free speech and civil liberties. Moon far from repudiating the Park government's beating and torture of Korean ministers, sponsored and organized a pro government rally in which 1,200,000 people participated (according to a press release given by the Unification Church in Washington.) Borrowing from Moon's historical metaphor(The Divine Principle) this is the equivalent of Jesus holding a pro government demonstration in Jerusalem in support of King Herod. When I was in Korea in October of 1970, Moon told me that when the Unification Church gains control of the South Korean government," every South Korean Embassy in the world will become an expeditionary force for the Kingdom of Heaven.
Setting out On The Journey
My path to the Unification Church began in 1966 when I matriculated at the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee. I entered college with little concrete notion of what I wanted to do in life. I had rejected the establishment rewards that my secondary education promised. To me the academic challenge at Sewanee was meaningless. Absorbed in a search for values by which I could live, the Peace Movement offered the only channel for my frustrated idealism. From the steps of the burned out ROTC building at the University of the South in the spring of 1968, I was the first student to speak publicly against the War at Sewanee. That summer in New Jersey I worked for the Presidential campaign of Senator Eugene J. McCarthy. In August I went to The National Democratic convention in Chicago as a messenger for the New Jersey delegation. The ferocity of the police riots during the convention destroyed what lingering faith I had in the political process, and I returned to college in the fall bewildered by our nati onal leaders' refusal to respond to the people's wish to end the war in Vietnam.
Unable to concentrate on my studies, I began to explore Eastern religions, specifically the religious synthesism of RamaKrishna. In the spring of 1969 I dropped out of the University of the South and hitchhiked to California, a stop on my way to India. In May I arrived in Berkeley, with a suitcase and a navy duffel bag and a copy of the Gospel According to Rama Krishna. I didn't know it, but it was the end of the line.
Early one afternoon a few days later I met a young man on the steps of the student union on the campus at the University of California at Berkeley. I told him I had no place to stay and no money. He said I could keep my bags at the "Unified Family" a commune several blocks from the campus. He picked up my suitcase. I grabbed my dufflebag, and off we went. At the commune Edwin Ang an Indonesian man in his early forties greeted us at the door. He was the center leader. We sat on cushions in the sparsely f urnished living room while he asked me what I was doing. I replied: "I am searching for God." He asked me to dinner and to a lecture that dealt with the commune's philosophy. Within a week I had heard five lectures on the "Divine Principle." In the last lecture an impassioned young woman spoke to us revealing that Moon was the "Messiah". I already knew this. Earlier I had been looking for a sleeping bag in a closet and there, on a shelf, was a photograph of Sun Myung Moon, a man of 40, kimono-clad. He st ared impassively into my startled eyes. I knew then that my new friends would soon tell me that this man was the Messiah. I joined the Unified Family in Berkeley. It then had thirteen members. In those days there was no Freedom Leadership Foundation, no CAUSA, no political activity and no fundraising. Our communal life consisted of meals, prayer services, singing, witnessing and studying the Divine Principle. At twenty-two I was the fourth oldest member of the group in Berkeley.
In the summer of 1969 the Unification Church in America had no more than 6 or 7 centers with a total membership numbering around 150. During that summer Neil Winterbottom from national headquarters in Washington D.C. visited the commune. He was English, a bout my age, bright and well read. He seemed more dynamic than my compadres in Berkeley.
He suggested that I should come to the headquarters in Washington. I came back East to Princeton N.J., to visit my family, whose skepticism about my new found religion only strengthened my commitment. Their suggestion that this group might be a front for Korean neo-fascism was preposterous. I did not tell them then that I knew Moon was the Messiah. Time was short. The world had to be saved. I had found my work at last.
Washington D.C.
Capitol of The ArchAngel Nation
I arrived in Washington D.C. for the second FLF conference. Neil Salonen, who in 1975 was Moon's right hand man in the United States, was ordered by Moon in the summer of 1969 to found the Church's anti-Communist movement in this country and to name the or ganization the International Federation for The Extermination of Communism. Salonen set the Freedom Leadership Foundation as the American Branch of the IFEC. On paper the FLF exists as a nonprofit, non partisan educational corporation whose stated objecti ve is to educate American Youth about the dangers of Communism. From its inception FLF was funded by the Unification Church. At this stage in the movement's development, the general membership was politically unsophisticated. The idea of a political arm was new and the purists in the movement who believed that a Church should have nothing to do with politics voiced strong opposition. It was pointed out to them that the church in Japan and Korea carried out extensive anti-Communist political programs and that it was the "master's" express desire to begin political work in the U.S. Thereafter opposition to political work was seen as infidelity to the Master.
In the fall of 1969 FLF launched a public relations campaign against the October 15 and November 15 Vietnam Moratoriums. Unification Church members went full steam into the political operation as well as stepping up the usual witnessing and teaching of the Divine Principle. From this perspective my paid job in the office of Congressman Frank Thompson Jr., democrat from New Jersey, certainly appears odd. "Thompy" was known as an opponent of the war and supported Gene McCarthy for President in 1968. While my "boss" on the Hill was making stronger statements than ever against the War in Vietnam, after hours I was in the streets leafleting for the Master in support of it. In the fall of 1969 and the winter of 1970 Salonen scouted the hard-line anti-Communist groups in D.C. The fruits of his labor were winning the friendship and support of several influential men, including David Martin, the late Senator Dodd's foreign affairs assistant(later a member on the staff of the Senate's Internal Security Committee), Dolph Droge and Sven Kramer, Nixon's special assistants on Vietnam and Charles Stephens, an independently wealthy man in his early thirties, who devoted a good deal of his time to promoting aggressive war policies through ad hoc groups of his own creation on campuses throughout the country. In the fall of 1969 and the spring of 1970 I worked increasingly with FLF.
Partisan Political Activity
In March of 1970 Salonen stepped down from the Presidency of FLF as a result of internecine conflict between himself and W. Farley Jones(then President of the Unification Church in America). Salonen was sent to Colorado to cool off and I was made President of FLF. It was not until a year later that I discovered that my sudden promotion over the heads of my superiors was a result of the leadership's conviction that I could "easily be controlled, and that my clean cut American good looks and the gift of gab made me an ideal front man.
In May Charles Stephens and I with coaching from David Martin, formed a political lobby group called "American Youth for A Just Peace." I called Unification Church members from all over the country to assist in a lobbying campaign in defense of Nixon's invasion of Cambodia and against the McGovern-Hatfield and Cooper-Church bills to limit American involvement. We ran several full page advertisements in the Washington Star and Washington Post, defending military aid to Cambodia, signed with my name as chairman. As a result the South Vietnamese Embassy invited AYJP members on a VIP tour of Vietnam. Eight Unification Church members, Stephens and two of his associates and I flew to Vietnam on August 22, 1970 for a ten day visit crowned by dinner with South Vietnamese President Thieu in the Presidential Palace in Saigon. While we were in Saigon, the Cambodian government invited us to visit Cambodia. We spent five days there. General Lon Nol gave us an audience.
We appeared on CBS national television evening news. Walter Cronkite transported the audience at home in the U.S. to our group digging a fortification ditch around the perimeter of Pnom Phen. Shovel in hand, I begged for more military aid for Cambodia in its struggle against communist aggression. The CBS correspondent described me, I remember, as a spokesman for a group of young Americans who had come to Southeast Asia to "find the facts." The South Vietnamese government paid for our round trip air fare with the explicit understanding that we would use the information we gathered to fight the Peace Movement on U.S. campuses and to generate support for the war. We were given royal treatment. At each stop the red carpet was rolled out. In Cambodia when we disembarked from the plane there were several thousand people waiting at the airport to greet us. A double row of 100 school girls was holding red roses. I felt like Lord Jim.
We left Cambodia and flew to Japan to visit the Japanese Unification Church and to participate in the World Anti-Communist League's fourth annual conference held in Kyoto. That was followed by a mass rally of 25,000 people in Tokyo at the Budokan Sports Palace. The WACL conference was sponsored by the International Federation for Victory Over Communism, the political arm of the Japanese Unification Church. Delegates from 53 nations attended. The American delegate was Senator Strom Thurmond and the honorary chairman of the conference was a prominent Japanese industrialist, Ryoichi Sasakawa.
Meeting the Shogun
Sasakawa was a fascist youth leader in the 30's. The Japanese Unification Church proudly told us that Sasakawa had helped create the Japanese Kamikaze program and that he had been instrumental in the Hitler Tojo pact. Sasakawa was convicted as a class A war criminal at the end of World War II and spent several years in jail. In 1975 he was the president of 13 major Japanese corporations, including the largest ship building company in Japan. He is also head of all Japanese karate schools. Sasakawa, on a visit to the Korean Unification Church, told church members that he was "Mr. Moon's dog."
After the WACL Conference we visited Unification Church centers in Japan. They were awe-inspiring to all of us. Then there were approximately 3,000 dedicated young followers who lived in Church centers for 20 to 100 members all over Japan. Seventy percent of them were involved in full time fundraising by selling flowers on street corners 14 hours a day. The rank and file members lived on a diet of rice and bread crusts. Church centers usually consisted of two large rooms with several smaller rooms adjacent. The large rooms served as separate men's and women's sleeping quarters. Anywhere from 10 to 50 people would sleep on tatami mats on the floor in one of the larger rooms. The center leader had a room to himself. The atmosphere in these centers was one of rigid military discipline and self-denial. All the Japanese martial virtues were harnassed and focussed on the molding of a group psyche whose sole object was to exalt Moon.
At The Feet of "The Master"
After 17 days in Japan, 7 of us flew to Korea to meet Moon and to visit the Korean Unification Church. We were housed in the dormitory of one of Moon's Anti-communist training centers, inside the walls of the Unification Church's air rifle factory, about an hour and a half drive from Seoul. Now after praying in his name for 16 months I was finally to meet the "Master.". From our window in the Anti-Communist training dormitory we saw Moon and his wife approaching across the dry mud field separating the dormitory and the air rifle factory. I, with the others, ran out of the building and raced across the muddy yard to greet them. I saw a dark haired, heavy set man whose receding hairline accentuated an already ample brow. He was wearing a white peasant tunic and dark trousers. He looked as he did in his photographs but older and heavier. His disciplined movements and compact body conveyed a sense of coiled power. Moon shook hands with each of us, smiling broadly. I saw, as he turned sideways in front of me, a large piece of red wax in his right ear. I treasured this excrescence as a sign of his humanity.
My Mission
During my visit to Korea in October I was given a private audience with Moon. I was ushered into a lounge adjacent to his private quarters above the main church building in Seoul. We sat opposite each other on a plain rug separated by a black lacquer table inlaid with two finely worked mother of pearl dragons. For an hour he instructed me on various matters. The only interruption was the arrival of a messenger, a Korean man in his forties who prostrated himself at Moon's feet before addressing the "Master." Moon said to me," You have a great responsibility. It is your job to initiate the work of winning the academic community in America to my side." Further he said, " The allegiance of the scholarly community is a vital key in my plan to restore the world. Since universities hold the reigns of certification for all the major professions and since universities are the crucible in which young Americans form their basic attitudes and life directions, we must forge a path toward influencing and ultimately controlling American campuses."
Moon held the Japanese Church up to us as an example of the true pattern of serving the Messiah. It was his intention to shame us into greater fervor and zeal, and his tactic was largely successful. The relative impotence of the American church in comparison with the militancy, power and organization of the Japanese Unification Church was a source of humiliation to us all. Moon told us that he could not come to America until we had significantly increased our numbers, demonstrated a higher level of persona l sacrifice, and achieved greater organizational unity. On our return to the U.S. we brought intimations of the future directions of the movement in America.
I returned to the U.S. on October 6, 1970, in time for an early morning press conference with AYJP co-chairman Charles Stephens. Between October and December Stephens and I spoke to civic groups in Washington , issued a bi-monthly tabloid to congressmen and senators, and did all we could to beat the war drum in the nation's capitol. AYJP was staffed entirely by Unification Church members.
In November of 1970 W. Farley Jones and Neil Salonen returned from Korea. There they had been "blessed" in a mass marriage ceremony by Moon. Unification Church doctrine states that marriage is available only to individuals who have attained perfection and that marriage by Moon is the instrument through which fallen man is grafted back onto the tree of life(Moon's revelation omits no detail and leaves nothing to the imagination. Its rigorous orthodoxy even prescribes the exact positions for consummation of the marriage.) On his return to the U.S. W. Farley Jones was informed that I had exhibited a romantic interest in a Unification Church woman. Any attachment of this sort not directly sanctioned by Moon is considered to be a sign of weakness and a manifestation of "satanic possession."
Guilt by Accusation
Without the benefit of facing my accuser or of defending my actions, my guilt was established and tacit sentence was passed. For the time being this condemnation destroyed whatever prestige I had as an up and coming Church l eader, and it made it difficult for me to continue as President of FLF. The Unification Church, lacking a philosophical or sacramental grasp of forgiveness, employs character assassination and guilt through innuendo as powerful tools in enforcing obedience. This incident was not a special case. It is an example of Church policy. Salonen, resurrected from Colorado and "blessed" by Moon, was now fit to reassume the Presidency of FLF.
In January of 1971, W. Farley Jones sent me to the Level Two Training Program as an anti-Communist lecturer. This was the first in a series of national church training programs conducted in Washington D.C.
In December of 1971, Moon came to the U.S. to take direct control of the American Unification Church. All income was collectivized immediately. Outside jobs were dropped. Membership in he Church became a full time occupation whose sole material reward was room and board. At this point Moon established the International One World Crusade, billed as a Christian revival youth movement. It was,in fact, a clever maneuver to recruit more troops for the Unification Church.
Moon assigned Travis Jones to start forming a center at the University of Maryland campus at College Park. In January of 1972 a number of us joined Travis in College Park. There we were left to our own devices. By June we had gained 12 new members, making a total of 21. Elated by this success and driven by the labor of 15 full time fund-raisers, we purchased an estate in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. The previous January we had started a candle factory to raise money to support ourselves and to further the w ork of the Unification Church. From early March of 1972 we delivered candles to church centers up and down the Eastern Seaboard. The churches sold the candles for a 400% profit.
In August the entire Unification Church began to raise 294,000.00 for the down payment on "Belvedere," an $800,000.00 estate in Tarrytown, N.Y. This money was raised by young people selling candles and flowers 16 hours a day on a diet of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and chicken soup~self-denial for the Master~. We, in Uppermarlboro working three shifts, 24 hours a day for 40 days, produced 200,000 candles for the effort. The down payment was made. Moon stated,"Heaven gave me this house." Belvedere served as Moon's private residence until the purchase of a neighboring estate within the year costing $600,000.00
A year later, by March of 1973, we in Upper Marlboro began to have serious doubts about Moon's claim to be the "Messiah" and about his autocratic methods. That month, Travis Jones, who had pioneered the work in Maryland, was arbitrarily relieved of his responsibilities and sent to Belvedere to be reprogrammed. I was made One World Crusade Commander of Maryland, i.e., head of the Church in the state. Travis' reports from New York State were grim.
Brainwashing: A glimpse into The Promised Land
100 Days Training Program at Tarrytown
The training program at Belvedere was aimed at breaking down the individual's identity by subjecting him or her to an emotionally and physically exhausting schedule of repetitive lectures, exercise and door to door soliciting. Trainees were quartered in large rooms in army bunks with little or no privacy. Men were strongly advised to cut their hair short. Mustaches and beards were unthinkable. The entire scenario was an echo of Marine boot camp. The restructuring of the trainee's ego was based on Moon's theology that projects absolute faith in Moon as the essential building block of a "restored" personality. It attacks the validity of the individual conscience. It explicitly denies the individual's capacity to make morally responsible existential decisions. Somewhere along the line in the theology, love of God is translated into blind obedience to Moon and his representatives in the hierarchical chain. One is finally left with submission to Moon as the only answer to fallen man's condition of moral paralysis.
Kneeling Before the Master
During Travis tour at Belvedere and during my visits there throughout the spring and summer our doubts about Moon and the Unification Church were crystallized by a series of macabre demonstrations of Moon's essentially psychopathic relationship with his followers. Shortly after Travis' relocation to Belvedere, Moon spoke at a Sunday church service at National Headquarters at 1611 Upshur St. in Washington D.C. The entire Maryland group was there. As One World Crusade Commander of Maryland I was given a coveted seat on the front row next to Unification Church President Neil Salonen. During his harangues, Moon hit me several times on the shoulder. When he finished his speech, he motioned me forward and asked me to kneel in front of the congregation. I thought he was going to ask me to confess my sins publicly. As I knelt, he kicked me in the hind quarters and then demanded of the audience whether they would follow him if he treated them like this. The immediate response was a deafening "yes" with clenched fists raised toward the ceiling.
Travis told me of a similar incident that took place while he was at Belvedere. In front of the entire training group of 70 young converts Moon hit Young Whi Kim, president of the Korean Unification Church, across the buttocks with a wooden cane with such force that the cane snapped in half. At Belvedere Moon also directly supervised the "War Games" in which One World Crusade Commanders and State Representatives took part in a massive variant of tug of war. Two groups of 50 would try to drag each other bodily across a certain line and back 40 yards to "prison camp.". Moon stood on the tip of a boulder in the path of the line. On a signal from Moon the teams would charge across the line and engage in a no holds barred battle to subdue and capture their adversaries.
Travis saw one guy with a broken arm, somebody else with a separated collarbone, and bloody noses were on all sides. Moon conducts these games between different nationality groups to stimulate competition and to reinforce a sense of pride in victory and shame in defeat. I remember a day at Belvedere in May of 1973 during a leadership conference. Moon had just finished a short speech and he then asked for general questions. I rose to my feet to address him. I said, " as a One World Crusade Commander, I frequently encounter the problem of homosexuality among our men." I asked him if there was anything we could do to help these people. He replied, "Tell them that if it really becomes a problem to cut it off, barbecue it, put it in a shoe box and send it to me." The audience roared with laughter.
The summer of 1973 we had three centers in Maryland: one in UpperMarlboro, one in College Park and One in Towson, a suburb of Baltimore. We had approximately 35 members. In the late summer we began preparation for Moon's Day of Hope speaking tour that opened in Baltimore in the first week of October. We plastered the city with billboards. We flew a plane over the Columbus day parade. We arranged a meeting for Moon with Sol Orlinsky, president of Baltimore's city council. We rented the Lyric theater for three days for his speeches. With the help of two international bus teams composed of Unification Church members from Japan, England, Germany, France and Holland, we sold thousands of tickets to his speeches. The evening of October 6 we held a ceremonial dinner at the Baltimore Hilton. Political, business and social leaders attended the dinner. Telegrams of encouragement and support were received and read at the dinner from Cardinal Shehan and from Theodore Roosevelt McKeldin, former Mayor of Baltimore and former governor of the State of Maryland respectively. All our fanfare was of little avail. Not more than 350 people attended Moon's lectures at the Lyric Theater.
Imperial Taster for The Royal Consort
At the dinner I and ranking members of the palace guard were armed with concealed Billy Clubs to protect Mr. Moon. I was seated at the head table to the left of Mrs. Moon. I was instructed to switch all my servings of food with hers. In addition to my other titles, I had at last been raised to the exalted position of imperial taster for the royal consort.
Meanwhile Travis Jones had been sent to Louisiana to be the One World Crusade Commander there and to prepare for the Dayof Hope in New Orleans. A group of us from Uppermarlboro visited Travis in New Orleans shortly after Moon's appearances. Jones was distraught by the direction of events in the church. We concurred in his disillusionment.
We returned to Upper Marlboro at the end of November to find "Doctor," Joseph Sheftick, an unlicensed chiropractor, whose academic title was awarded to him by Moon, had been sent to Uppermarlboro to diagnose the situation and to see if an adjustment was needed. Sheftick felt that the prognosis was good, provided that the four leaders at Upper Marlboro were removed. He assured Moon that the rank and file would remain faithful.
In the days that followed, 26 Church members of our group in Maryland repudiated Moon and his teachings. In mid December, Moon's full page newspaper advertisements appeared in the New York Times and other major papers exhorting the American people to forgive President Nixon before an indictment had been issued or guilt established. That clinched our decision to leave the Church. Early in the fall Moon had rejected the idea of publicly supporting President Nixon; but, during a two week visit to Japan and Korea he had second thoughts. On his return to the U.S. he publicly announced that God had instructed him to forgive President Nixon.
Shades of The Grand Inquisitor
Forgiveness Through The Assumption of Power
We wrote Moon a letter explaining why we could no longer be a part of his church. Moon responded to us through Colonel Bo Hi Pak, President of the Korean Cultural and Freedom Foundation. He invited me and other leaders in Maryland to come to Belvedere for a vacation to be followed by retraining, after which we were to be awarded "positions of greater power and authority." We refused. It was an extremely difficult time for all of us. Some returned to school, some to their families. Approximately 12 who left with us are today living and working with a pacifist Christian Community.
It was the unanimous decision of all three centers to sell all real estate and to liquidate all assets and to give the proceeds to bona fide Christian Charities. Unfortunately we were unable to do this, because the Unification Church brought suite against us. They claimed that we had stolen the land and properties from them. In a pre trial hearing the judge threw the case out of court. He said that he seemed to remember something in the Bible prohibitting Christians from suing one another or anyone else, for that matter. Mr. Moon is apparently unswayed by this tradition for law suites seem to figure prominently in his plan to restore the world.
It is now 27 years since I left the Unification Church. Time and distance have allowed me the opportunity of scrutinizing and reflecting on my time with Moon. Literature and mythology provide the parameters within which I attempt to assimilate and resolve the grotesque variables of this dark Odyssey. In literature and myth I find the type of myself in the young innocent, who is proud, blind, self-righteous and idealistic. I also find the type of Moon, the zealous Promethean whose paranoid delusions of grandeur become the altar upon which thousands of souls are sacrificially slaughtered along the road to Xanadu.
20th Century Protestantism's Captain Ahab
Often I think of my years in service to Moon as an example, an instance of Ishmael's journey with Captain Ahab on board the Pequod in search of the White Whale. To me, Moon is twentieth century Protestantism's Captain Ahab, a titan whose flailing hubris filled fists would have us take vengeance in our own hands and send us all off after the white whale. In mythology, this experience lends itself to analogies with the Hero's journey into the Underworld, where he must overcome or outwit the forces of darkness to earn the right to reenter the world of light.
Unification Church doctrine states that those who follow Moon are the chosen. In that light they see themselves not so much as the servants of mankind, but rather as the architects of history. Men who have been called out of the anonymous masses to assist the messiah in laying the groundwork for the millennium. They believe that as the chosen they are above the law. Like Raskolnikov in Dostoievski's Crime and Punishment, they have arrived at the humbling and exalting conclusion that they are more valuable to God, to history and to the future than other people.
History is teeming with people whose desire for reform has led them to accept the superman philosophy of men like Hitler and Moon. The fruits of this variety of psychological and political titanism are always catastrophic. Moon is an unfortunate and formidable by product of the West's inability to live within its Judeo-Christian traditions.
In the name of the Second Coming and using the authority of Christian apocalyptic prophecy, Moon promises to restore the world to a state of peace and harmony essentially through the use of power. Jesus repudiated the use of force. Moon, who claims to fulfill the promises of Christianity, is resurrecting divine kingship on an Egyptian scale. He preaches genetic selection, and he practices sympathetic magic.
Up From The Abyss
The daylight of this world to which I have returned after my sojourn in the messianic abyss is not always clear or warm, but I rejoice in it, because I know that whatever path I take, my conscience will never be the prisoner or possession of another man.
The End

Moonies buying brazil
The Scotsman, thu 18 april 2002, Feature
Buying brazil
It was during a fishing trip to Brazil’s remote south-western swamplands in 1994 that the Rev Sun Myung Moon hatched his dream of building a haven for his Moonie sect. "Brazil is huge, with a small mind. We will open it and show that the Third World can become rich," he is said to have told his devotees.
So enchanted was he with a marshy region that lies on the edges of the Pantanal National Park in the state of Matto Grosso do Sul that he started buying up land. His first acquisition was a 100,000-acre ranch on shrub-covered flatland on the confluence of two rivers, the Prata and Miranda, teeming with rare fish. Now, years later, the 82-year-old Korean billionaire, who founded and heads the controversial religious group formally known as the Unification Church, has bought up so much land in this remote area that the authorities are growing increasingly concerned.
Last year the Matto Grosso do Sul state legislature began to investigate Moon’s activities. His purchase of 500,000 acres spreading across the border into Paraguay - the area includes an entire coastal town - has made them especially edgy. He now owns a large sector of the international border.
Moon has vowed to invest as much as $2 billion in the area over the coming years, but the governor of Matto Grosso do Sul, Jose Osorio dos Santos, has called his land-buying quest in the region "a great worry". The Brazilian intelligence agency has been investigating Moon’s activities. Military authorities believe his purchases are a threat to national sovereignty, and voice fears that the controversial sect leader is trying to construct his own nation in the heart of South America. The Catholic Church in the area has accused the sect of using cash incentives to lure locals. The federal police force has launched probes into money laundering by a former Moon employee, and has confiscated the Unification Church’s banking records in Brazil.
Lawyers defending Moon’s organisation in Brazil have dismissed the charges, alleging they amount to nothing but religious persecution. Regardless of what may come to light through official inquiries, what seems clear is that the Moonies view this under-populated, barren corner of South America as an ideal place for reviving their messianic leader’s quest to change the world and bring "global peace".
Famed for holding mass weddings between Moonies he picks at random from a pile of photographs - and for his claims to be "the true father of the world" - the Rev Moon has lost some of his following over the past years. He founded the Unification Church in South Korea in 1954 and quickly gained a reputation for accumulating business interests worldwide. His church is said to have had some 4.6 million members across the globe.
The sect considers Jesus to be a failed messiah and the Rev Moon the chosen one. Moon’s preaching mixes elements of Christianity, Confucianism and Buddhism, and focus much on his self-professed "gift" at matchmaking.
In the 1980s Moon had some 30,000 followers in the US, his main base. But in recent years numbers have fallen to a few thousand. His reputation suffered in the 1970s when he was briefly jailed for tax evasion and, more recently, after a scandal in which one of his son’s wives accused her husband of being addicted to cocaine.
Moon’s South American venture looks like a last-ditch attempt to resurrect his sect. He still heads a sizeable business empire, which includes the Washington Times and a university in the United States. However, Moon’s investments in the past few years have all gone into his South American property purchases. In addition to his lands in the backwater region between Paraguay and Brazil, he owns property in Argentina and a bank, an estate and a newspaper in Uruguay.
The sprawling ranch where the rivers Prata and Miranda meet appears to be the centre of the project. Moon has called it the New Hope Ranch. It is four hours from the nearest big city, and five miles outside the poor farming town of Jardim. The drive takes you through shrublands dotted with skeletal cattle, the last part along a pot-holed gravel track. "Welcome to the Garden of Eden," reads a huge sign hanging over the entrance.
It seems an unlikely setting for a vision of paradise. While the edges of the Pantanal were once covered in rich sub-tropical forest, most of it has been deforested by cattle ranchers in the past decade. But that seems not to have deterred Moon. "We will make from this a fertile haven where birds and animals can roam," he promised followers - mainly from Japan, Korea, Spain and the United States - who flocked to the ranch to help in the task of recreating his Utopian vision.
Protecting themselves from the piercing sun with wide-brimmed hats, they brave long afternoons by mosquito infested rivers, planting seedlings in the rocky fields. "We plan to reforest these dusty flatlands with native species and plant crops and show local farmers that this area can be resurrected," says Cesar Zadusky, the ranch manager.
Zadusky runs the farm in Moon’s absence - for the time being Moon commutes between his $10 million apartment in New York and a luxury estate in Uruguay. But he has said that he hopes eventually to take up full-time residence in the New Hope Ranch. At present, when he and his wife visit, they stay in a small wooden hut.
Moon has already spent more than $25 million on the ranch. The site is made up of a 3,000-seat conference hall, a temple, more than a dozen identical dormitory buildings to house the 2,000 sect members who live permanently on the ranch, and another characterless building for visiting devotees.
Sect members live in army-style dormitories with bunk beds and work all day ploughing fields, building greenhouses and planting vegetable gardens. They can be seen washing clothes in seemingly endless rows of sinks outside their quarters. They do not speak to visiting journalists; Zadusky speaks for them.
In one corner of the ranch an ostrich breeding farm equipped with a computerised hatching machine has been set up. Ostrich meat is a delicacy in Brazil’s business capital, Sao Paulo, and therefore a lucrative product.
The ranch has a school for 300 children and there are plans to build a university. Of the 200 or so locals who have joined the sect, most have done so to ensure a place for their children in the well-equipped school, which now has 250 children but aims to grow and take more than 600.
"Before we can build a heaven on earth we have to give an education and training to the poor illiterate locals," says Zadusky. "We are planning a university and a research centre, to bring the latest agricultural research to local farmers."
Initially the local authorities saw Moon’s investments as a way to boost the economy in impoverished cowboy country. Landowners, heavily in debt, were also keen to sell their mostly infertile pasture lands, the result of many years of slash-and-burn jungle clearance.
To appease local politicians Moon donated an ambulance to the local hospital in Jardim and provided funds for a small airport with one landing strip. Then, in what looked like a plan to boost his local following among soccer-crazed Brazilians, he set up his own professional football team.
Moon said he proposed to build a giant stadium in Jardim, where he would host national league games as well as perform mass weddings. But the plans - along with those to build hotels and foster an eco-tourist industry - have not materialised. And his moves to expand his territory across the border in Paraguay have only served to heighten the suspicions of Brazilian politicians.
"He just does not stop buying and yet his impact on the local economy has not been that positive," says Governor Santos. "The main question is: what does he intend to do with it all?"
Moon’s recent acquisition of 500,000 acres of infertile flatland in Paraguay includes the river port of Puerto Casado, a town of 6,000 inhabitants. Most of the impoverished town’s residents took part in protests against what they called a "Moonie invasion".
Once a thriving port, the town went bankrupt when the local logging industry turned non-viable in the 1980s.
Moon has vowed he will "industrialise, fertilise and commercialise" the poor riverside community. But the local Catholic Church accuses the sect leader of preying on the hopes of the poor and desperate to increase his following.
Local politicians say that dozens of luxury yachts have docked at the river port since the sect’s arrival, claiming it is a sign that the Moonies intend to expel locals who fail to join their ranks. They are lobbying the central government in Asuncion to begin legal procedures to recover ownership of the town. But it is a battle that could take years, as the sale was made by an Argentine timber company which owns huge tracts of land in the region and built the town to house plantation workers in the 1950s.
Brazilian and Paraguayan authorities have vowed to investigate plans to build what they fear is "a sort of Moonlandia". However, it remains to be seen if they will be able to counter Moon’s plans. He is, after all, the legal owner of much of this backwater corner of the continent.
Paradise lost
THE Moonies are not the only sect to have attempted to colonise a whole area. Others have tried - some with tragic results.
Jonestown
AN ENCLOSED agricultural commune in the Guyana jungle on the Venezuelan border, this cult was set up in 1973 by Jim Jones, leader of the People’s Temple. To the outside world, the sect appeared to be both multi-racial and egalitarian. But in November 1978, 913 of Jones’s followers were ordered to kill themselves in a mass suicide, by drinking a lethal cyanide-laced grape punch, after Jones became convinced the commune was about to be raided by the CIA.
Waco
THE Waco compound in Mount Carmel, Texas, was a religious commune for the Branch Davidians, set up by cult leader David Koresh. Wanted by the FBI on weapons charges, Koresh and more than 80 of his followers perished when the ranch went up in flames on 19 April 1993, after a 51-day FBI siege.
Eatonton
THE United Nuwaubian Nation of Moors, led by "extra-terrestrial" Dwight York, set up a compound in the town of Eatonton, Georgia, in 1999, calling it their "Egypt of the West". Main features: two 12-metre-high pyramids, a 1.6km labyrinth, a multi-coloured obelisk and a giant statue of a sphinx, built despite protests from local building inspectors.
Aum Supreme Truth Cult
THE Japanese Aum Supreme Truth cult, responsible for the 1995 lethal gas attacks on Tokyo subways, has some 1,600 members living in cult communes across the country. The sect, which raises funds from its computer software business, was reported to have around 28 practice halls and 150 accommodation facilities in 15 of Japan’s 47 prefectures by the end of 2001.
Friedrichshof
THE world’s most famous sex commune, Friedrichshof, was set up in fields outside Vienna by Otto Muhl in the early 1970s, whereafter it gained a 600-strong following. Muhl was arrested and jailed in 1991 for under-age sex, but his vision of free love and economic communism still thrives, with many of the original members living on in the compound, which features an ornamental lake and a large block of flats. Muhl himself has since founded a new commune in Portugal.

Moon Speech Raises Old Ghosts as the Times Turns 20
By Frank Ahrens
Washington Post Staff Writer
Thursday, May 23, 2002
At Tuesday night's celebration of the Washington Times' 20th anniversary, its founder, the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, gripped a podium at the Washington Hilton and delivered an impassioned, hour-long evangelical sermon in Korean saying he established the newspaper "in response to heaven's direction."
During the sermon, he set the course for the Times' next 10 years: "The Washington Times is responsible to let the American people know about God." Later, he added: "The Washington Times will become the instrument in spreading the truth about God to the world."
==Moon's sermon tossed gasoline on the long-smoldering embers that some Times staffers have spent two decades trying to extinguish: the accusation that their paper is a mouthpiece for Moon's religious movement, the Unification Church. Or, at best, a public relations outlet for conservative values and the Republican Party.
The charges were not helped by allegations of former reporters, who say stories were changed to favor conservatives; by editors who quit, claiming church tampering; or by obscurity surrounding the paper's finances. It has been years since many of those incidents, though, and five years since Moon's last mass wedding in Washington, which inevitably pulled the Times into scrutiny. For the past few years, the Times has enjoyed a relatively Moon-free zone.
===Editor in Chief Wesley Pruden issued a statement yesterday afternoon, which read in part: "This morning, we printed the 7,305th edition of The Times, and no one can show me a single line, in any of those 7,305 editions of The Times, of promotion or propaganda for Rev. Moon and his church. If the proof is in the pudding, how much pudding do you need?"
===The paper is something of a journalistic curiosity -- a money-losing, church-subsidized newspaper with an editorial policy of "puncturing politically correct pomposity," said Pruden. The Times eschews what Pruden calls "victim stories," which he defines as articles about "people who were mistreated or think they were mistreated." His advice to them: "Get a life," which could well be the paper's motto.
The Times has never climbed out of the red or earned substantial income from advertising; it is supported by a subsidy from its owner, News World Communications, a private company wholly owned by Moon's Unification Church.
The paper's finances, as well as those of Moon's worldwide businesses, have been difficult to pin down. Moon owns land in South America as well as several papers in Latin America. The businesses run the gamut from commercial fisheries to Atlantic Video -- a Massachusetts Avenue video post-production facility -- to a cable channel called the GoodLife TV Network, which airs family fare, such as "Highway to Heaven."
===As of this year, Moon and his businesses have plowed about $1.7 billion into subsidizing the Times, say current and former employees.
The Times will not disclose its current subsidy or the percentage of its revenue generated by advertising except to say that the subsidy has been decreasing over the past eight years, with a slight bump up last year, said Richard H. Amberg Jr., the paper's vice president and general manager.
===In its early years, the Times' circulation was as much of a mystery as its budget. During Whelan's two-year tenure, the paper claimed as many as 125,000 subscribers. But then Whelan found out his circulation department was boosting its numbers by throwing away "thousands and thousands" of papers each day at recycling drop-offs in Alexandria.

A Moonstruck Heaven Taps Favorite Son
Friday, July 12, 2002
BY PEGGY FLETCHER STACK
THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE
Having presided over millions of mass weddings and marriage blessings, the Rev. Sun Myung Moon most certainly has earned the title Almighty Matchmaker. But the 82-year-old Korean evangelist recently arranged a holy union that surprised even his own supporters.
Martin Luther, Karl Marx, Confucius, Jesus and, well, God, got together last Christmas and unanimously decided that the Rev. Sun Myung Moon was their guy. They voted him the "Savior, Messiah and King of Kings of all humanity," according to a full-page ad running this week in dozens of U.S. newspapers, including The Salt Lake Tribune and the Deseret News.
The 7,000 word ad, entitled "The Cloud of Witnesses: The Saints' Testimonies to the True Parents," claimed that representatives of Communism and the five "great religions of the world" met in a "spirit world seminar" and gave Moon their blessing. Quite an accomplishment for a man whose own church has been ridiculed by some as a brainwashing cult.
... Evidently. The ad cost $7,800 in Utah papers alone, and is running in 45 other newspapers around the country, according to the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, formerly known as the Unification Church.
And the ad reads like the minutes of some heavenly city council meeting. It lays out who was there (representatives of Christianity, Confucianism, Buddhism, Islam, and Hinduism), where they sat (the front seats reserved for leading figures), and what they did (adopted a resolution, recited the Family Pledge). Jesus gave the closing prayer, followed by three cheers of victory led by Muhammad.
... Jesus called Moon as Messiah in 1935, the ad says, with dual ministries in the visible and unseen world. Unable to complete his mission before his crucifixion, Jesus asked Moon to carry on.

I am faced with an orginizatin that I beleive is associated with Reverand Moon. I have tried to find information on them but find that it is an uphill battle. Te general public seems to be blind to the fact that the Moonies are still very present and in our midst today. No they are not on street cornes handing out flowers as was done in y youth. They are more evolved. They hide themselves in various orginizations and affiliations. They don't claim to be a part of Moon, but when you check you find that he is involved undercover. Everyone should be made aware that when you see Unification Church chances are that Moon is in there somewhere. If you know of anyone that is nvolved in anyway with such a group stop them now. You may otherwise loose them. I did ! |

Pray-and-tell book lifts Moon marriage veil
September 08 2002 at 03:58PM
By Philip Pullella
Vatican - Emmanuel Milingo, the archbishop who shocked Catholics by marrying in Reverend Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church, says he may have been brainwashed.
Milingo, 72, was used to hearing confessions. Now he is making a confession of his own in a new pray-and-tell book called Fished out of the Mud, an advance copy of which was made available ahead of publication this week.
Milingo disappeared from the Vatican in spring 2001 to marry Maria Sung, a 43-year-old Korean woman whom Moon, the controversial South Korean-born evangelist, chose for him.
'I didn't realise what I was getting myself into'..."Maybe I was the object of a type of brainwashing," he says in the 160-page book published by the Edizioni Paolini.
Milingo, a Zambian faith healer, wrote the book with Italian journalist Michele Zanzucchi from the pampas of Argentina, where he has been living in isolation ahead of a planned return next month to Italy, where he has a big following.
"I didn't realise what I was getting myself into. I only understood later that it (the wedding) was a way of them getting total control over me," he said.
..."On one day, one of the last I spent with Maria Sung, the whole thing seemed so absurd to me that I was praying to God: 'Lord, make me die, Lord, make me die,'" he said.
Milingo says the Unification Church wanted to use him to set up what he calls a "parallel Catholic Church" in Africa, autonomous from Rome, in which he would have been the head.
He said a document about the plans for a new church in Africa mysteriously disappeared from his luggage in Rome when he arrived to make amends with the Vatican in August 2001.

Church-backed school before planners
By BOBBY COMMAND/ West Hawaii Today
A controversial plan to establish a boarding high school in North Kona financed by the Unification Church will be unveiled today before the county Planning Commission.
The commission meets at 9 a.m. today at the Ohana Keauhou Beach Resort to discuss this and other matters before the public.
Plans by Pacific Rim Education Foundation call for a 30 - acre campus site near the Puukala subdivision, about a mile north of Kona Palisades. The school would service about 200 students, mostly from emerging Pacific island nations.
A number of Kona residents have expressed concerns the building of the school will be funded by the Unification Church, which is led by the Rev. Sun Myung Moon.
The Unification movement is described by its followers as family centered and seeking world peace, but critics, many of them mainstream Christian organizations, call the religion a cult because of its involvement in mass weddings, supposed brainwashing recruitment and members' belief that Moon is the Messiah.
+++The concern by the Waikoloa church came after a flurry of letters to the editor in West Hawaii Today about the involvement of the Unification Church and its leader, the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, in the financing of the school.
The school plans to recruit students from various Pacific Island nations, including the Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of Marshall Islands, Western Samoa, Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea.

Once a young man came to my door and asked for a donation to his church. He was smiling but he had a spaced out look in his eyes. He had a badge on that idenified him as a member of Rev Moon's group. I told him no, not because I'm against giving to a well deserved organization or church but because I don't believe in helping cults. That is what the Unification Church is.
When the young man heard the word no, he came out of his spacey look and appeared angry. He turned and walked away without saying anything else. Anyone that would follow Moon and consider him the messiah is blind. |

I was born in the church. I have left, so many of us have. Where is everybody else in the late hours? I feel like I've looked all over the internet tonight, all the sites regarding the moonies seem to be written by people who joined and left way back in the 70s. Does anyone know of a site where I can find more recent ex-moonies, particularly ex-BCs? I am eager to discuss the psychological ramifications of having a mind whose most original base and foundation was the good old Divine Principle!! |
