2. Unification Thought

Today, in the world where we live, we are faced with problems from the democratic world and the Communist world. We are witnessing right in front of our eyes a worldwide political climate that is confrontational, conflicting, and oppositional. Then, what will be the ideology that will become the center of the world? This is the question. (66-19)

What is an ideology? It is not material. It is not visible, but is a thought. An "ism" is brought about based upon an ideology. Therefore, the term "ideology" cannot be applicable for materialism. For this reason, an ideology replacing it should appear.

Specifically, an ideology that is based on complete truth should appear, and should connect human ethics and religions to each other, bringing unity between them. That truth should transcend time and space. It should be in accordance with what has been sought by all prophets, saints and sages, and patriots, and should also be in accordance with what has been sought by all philosophers, politicians, and economists. Otherwise, we cannot build one unified world. Until now, externally such a pattern, has been prepared, but internally, the truth for managing it internally has not appeared. In other words, no revolution took place centered around the ideology that can bring forth the unification of the world.

When Jesus was crucified, the thief on his right side wanted to serve Heaven, but the thief on his left took a position of disbelieving Heaven. Likewise, today, the world is divided into two: There is a right-wing world that takes the position of the thief on the right side and a left-wing world that takes the position of the thief on the left side. That is why the left-wing world became a world that claims that it does not know God. Then, what should be witnessed to in such a world? It is true love. Just as individuals witnessed to love in the name of Jesus, a religious country that seeks for Heaven should come and witness to true love. (4:247)
