Seoul Western Family holds discussions at US Army Base

What is love? What is your purpose in life? Is God dead?

What is freedom?

Pretty heavy questions, huh?

Are they unanswerable and therefore moot or unworthy of discussion? The Unified Family thinks not.

Every Monday at 7 p. m. the Unified Family holds discussions on the contemporary problems of today’s philosophies and the impact of these problems on the world of tomorrow.

The Family’s philosophy, although based on the Bible and the teachings of Jesus Christ, is geared towards unifying the beliefs and theories of science, sociology, politics, and the religions of the world. To achieve their purpose, the Family and its Unification Doctrine teach that to accomplish useful achievements, the people of the world must learn of and strive to fulfill God’s purpose and will Currently in Korea, there are more than 300,000 supporters of the Divine Principle and its philosophical counterpart, Unification Thought.

In referring to his people, Jesus said, “You will know them by their fruits.”

And what are the fruits?

“Unity, peace, joy, and love of God,” says John Price, the English member of the Seoul Family.

The Monday evening meetings with the Unified Family at the Moyer Recreation Center are conducted in a purposely non-religious atmosphere.

“We talk about philosophy, we discuss day to day problems, we discuss life,” says Family member Lynne Doerfler [Kim], from Wisconsin. “We want everyone, regardless of their religious attitudes, to join us in talking about the relevant issues and ideas of our world. We invite everyone join us in helping to brighten the world’s tomorrow.”
