Moon calling followers to KoreaRev. Moon, founder of the Unification Church, is calling upon his devotees to go to Korea and "witness for peace," reports The Billings Gazette.
In Montana the Unification Church is now called "The Family Church of Billings." Its pastor hopped a flight for Seoul on Monday and an elder followed two days later.
One of the Moon devotees said, "We hope to relieve the tension."
Perhaps things are getting a bit tense for Rev. Moon. The self-proclaimed "messiah" has sunk $55 million dollars in North Korea, through a company he owns called Pyonghwa Motors.
A Montana Moon follower said, "If there is an opportunity to go to North Korea, I'd go."
It's hard to believe that Moon, the supposedly conservative and staunchly anti-Communist owner of the Washington Times, or his followers, would want to help Communist North Korea, but they do.
Maybe it's nostalgia? Moon was once held prisoner in North Korea for two years.
Perhaps Kim Jong Il the "Great Leader" of North Korea and Rev. Moon the "messiah" have more in common than meets the eye, after all they have both been called totalitarian "cult leaders." And both men conrol billions of dollars as a result of that status.
