Tuesday, February 03, 2009

S.M. Moon: Address to the World Summit on Peace, January 2009

Written by: Rev. Sun Myung Moon, Founder, Universal Peace Federation

We must lead transparent lives of goodness with our every action being as clear as a crystal. We must accomplish a “pure love revolution” by educating all people about the value of absolute sexual ethic centered on God, our heavenly parent. This is the only way to pass on the lineage of goodness to all of humankind, and the path to achieving God’s ideal of true families.
