2) The Need for Head-Wing Ideology

Neither left-wing ideology nor right-wing ideology will work. Who can bring unity there? The left-wing cannot do it, nor can the right-wing. Therefore, we can come to a conclusion that we need a movement through which a new advanced right-wing type that can be supported by the left-wing, and a new advanced left-wing type that can be supported by the right-wing should be brought together. Young people need some of what used to be considered mysteries. Then we go over to the era in which we come to think, "Well, this humanism based on materialism is not good enough. How wonderful it would be if God could be above it." When looking at the entire history of humankind, a God-centered ideology centering on the Vatican failed, and so did human-centered democracy.

The same is true for Communism centered on materialism. Therefore, we came to think: "What about an international, inter-ideal world that combines God-centered ideology, humanism, and materialism?" We need a system of thought in which all of these are combined, and at the same time we need a way that can be harmonious with a religious system. That is, we need a thought, but we also need a religious ideology. We need something God-centered that goes beyond anything human. Humans alone cannot resolve problems. Humans will only fight among themselves. Hence the worldwide political inclination is flowing towards this direction.

For this, the Unification Church researched, and presents as an alternative: the head-wing ideology. Humans need a spirit, a body and material. However, throughout human history, seen from a vertical perspective, by traversing the eras of God-centered ideology led by spiritual leadership, body-centered humanism, and matter -centered materialism, humans reached their limit. Then what can unify these? The body cannot make spirit unite with it, nor can matter make to spirit unite with it through the body.

The task or unification should be done through spirit. Mind should do that job. Then, what part of the mind can do it? The supreme mind and the supreme standard of spirit should be perfect. That mind should not be mine, but should be a system of thought that can go and operate beyond history. It should be connected to God's providential age, transcending human history, but as a non-limited thought, not belonging to a limited thought system. That thought also should not be time-limited, but should transcend time. It should not be a thought that seeks for an ideal centered on physical life, but should be a thought that seeks for an ideal centered on eternity. It is only logical for us to come to a conclusion that through this a standard that can finally bring us thinking people to settle in peace can come about. From this view, the most serious question that we are faced with is how we can connect humanism that represents the body and God-centered ideology, such as religion, that represents the spirit.

In other words, the question is how we can connect humanism and religions. Otherwise, secular humanism or nationalism (for example, America or France promoting its own country to be the best), cannot be overcome. Through this, what conclusion do we arrive at? Communism should absorb the idealism that accepts spirit, and humanism should also pursue world-ism or an ism that is higher than that, transcending a nation, and religions should also transcend their own denominations and participate in harmonizing all humanity, by bringing them to one religion for all humankind, not for religions themselves. Without such a content, we cannot cope with and resolve the world problems. That is why it will be natural to say that an ideology that can deal with and resolve such issues, being connected to the supreme spirit, that is to say, the head-wing ideology will be necessary.
