Jon Quinn: Culture War


CULTURAL WAR on YOUTUBE.COM
The Unification Movement is not united. There is a division between two sides. One believes the wife of the Messiah has the sole authority to Bless marriages and change a person’s blood lineage from Satan’s to God’s. The other side believes the Messiah’s youngest son has the sole authority to give the Blessing. In this division there is no gray. There is no third way. Mankind has a choice between two ideologies, two conflicting worldviews. If 7 billion people want to learn what each side believes they will find it atYouTube.com. Sun Myung Moon’s wife, Hak Ja Han, at the Federation refuses to even acknowledge her son’s new movement and 7 billion people will find her spokesperson, Andrew Wilson, who has given several speeches on YouTube.com on how they differ from the teachings of Sun Myung Moon’s son, Hyung Jin Moon. Hyung Jin Nim has given over 50 speeches on YouTube since his sermon “Breaking the Silence” given January 18, 2015.
FEMINISM
There are a number of issues both sides disagree on. To me, the main difference is their view of the Bible, especially the New Testament. Andrew teaches that the Bible was written by men who do not value women and human history has been a patriarchy that oppressed women. He believes Hak Ja Han has come to save women from being abused slaves to men. He proclaims she is showing herself to be a great leader and now it is time to end the patriarchy that loves aggression and war and create a matriarchy where women can bring heart, love and compassion to the world. When there is a matriarchy mankind will finally achieve world peace, i.e., peace and unity between men and women, peace and unity in the family, peace and unity in the church and in the state. This ideology is called feminism.
ANTI-FEMINISM
Hyung Jin Nim teaches the Bible is the word of God and Scripture. He teaches that putting women in power will not bring world peace. He teaches the traditional, biblical marriage. One book he uses at his Blessing workshop to teach the patriarchal family is Emerson Eggerichs’ book and videos titled “Love & Respect” that elaborates on Ephesians 5. Andrew speaks strongly against Ephesians 5 that says the husband is the head of his wife and makes the final decisions for the family. This ideology is called anti-feminism.
Therefore the difference mankind will find when they watch the YouTube videos is the difference between anti-feminist patriarchy and feminist matriarchy.
