1. Evolutionism The ancestors of humans were not monkeys . Which being can be the object of God, the only absolute one? Some scholars say it's the monkey, but is that possible? When you go to the zoo, monkeys are holy, right? Some zoologists are saying the monkey is ancestor of the human. Then ask the scholar, "Sir, who is your grandfather? Is he a monkey? Then you are a descendent of a monkey." Will he like that? No way. It will turn him off. Would you like a monkey to be your grandfather? What! Humans evolved from amoebas? Biologists and biological professors are saying that monkeys are their grandfathers. There are wicked people running this world; to take care of that, Rev. Moon of the Unification Church came about. Don't you young guys do that also? Look! The nature of energy is that the entering energy is never the same as the exiting energy. It's a formula. Always the entering energy is greater. Do you agree? Perhaps you would learn in physics, even in electric engineering, that the power that goes into a motor is greater than power that comes out. It is always like that. When motion occurs, energy is consumed. While motion is going on, do you it's increasing? Is it decreasing or increasing? It is decreasing. Then, when an ameba engages in motion, how could it become something greater? Can something greater come about by itself? No way! What has to be done for it to become something greater? For it to become something greater, another energy must be invested in it. Never think that it could become something greater by itself, so that it becomes a higher functional being than it started out as. Let us compare humans and monkeys. How do monkeys live? All they do is make noise, eat, sleep and bear babies. Are monkeys shedding tears because they are missing their mother and father in their hometown? Monkeys and humans are fundamentally different. Is a monkey worrying about the older brother, or does a monkey want to sacrifice for parents? How about humans. Do they do those things or not? Yes. The seed is different. Do monkeys get together and talk about what their ancestors have done, or discuss about whether there is a God or not? Monkeys can't do that. Do they think about the existence of spiritual world? Can they dream about the universe becoming peaceful, a peaceful world, one world, and a blossoming place of love? People who espouse that kind of evolutionism of humans from monkeys are like dogs and pigs. The seed of monkeys is not the same as the seed of humans. Humans are supposed to live centering on others, not themselves - to live and hope centered on a higher ideal. They are not supposed to live and hope based on a lower ideal. The dimension is different! Humans have been worshipping God since they were created. There are no tribes who are not worshipping God. They have been thinking about God and have been thinking about how to make the universe better. Can monkeys think about that with their brains? Monkeys can't achieve that even going through thousands of steps. How could that kind of energy content enter into monkeys? It doesn't make sense. Communism has been saying the humans came from material. Is it possible? Does matter possess that kind of thought? No matter how much human ability one has, everyone has a vision of harmony. Matter itself does not have that kind of ability. The Marxist dialectic maintains that every material being, every part of the existing world is changing and developing. But to a higher ideal? A mind reaching after higher standards-is it developing and changing? Can the original character change and develop, whether among people in the past days, the present days or thousands of years of future days? Do you think it will change? One can speak of animals, and say that a monkey is a higher animal, but can monkeys have that kind of thought? For thousands of years, or hundreds of millions of years, has any energy been added to monkeys? Can the monkey have that kind of original character? So we can conclude that, unlike the monkey, a great original element has been given to humans. The reason why an unchanging element, not a changeable one, has been added into humans, is so that they can become a substantial object to the unchanging Subject. This logic is, right! We have that kind of original character, which means that there must be a Subjective real being who also has that kind of original character. Here we can know the concept of subject and object. Here we can know that I am in an objective relationship to the Subject. Then since the Subject being has put in that kind of original character, is that for Himself or for the sake of a higher ideal? That is the question! We can conclude that He invested in hoping for a higher level.
