The DP, Control & the U.S. Military

“In the 1957 Divine Principle, and thereafter, the story is that Jesus failed to marry. Moon and Eu changed to story to not upset all the world’s Christians. Hyo-won Eu was the main author of the 1957 Divine Principle, but there were others who contributed. One may have been a professor from Yonsei University who was a members for a year or two from 1955. He left, but later explained his involvement, and who else contributed, to a Christian minister.”

————————————

Young Oon Kim is as much a “main author” of the Divine Principle, as anyone is (and yes, that would include Hyo-won Eu.) Miss Kim authored the first printed version of the DP in English in 1956. That precedes Hyon Won Eu’s Korean version by a year. Therefore, it seems likely that the idea to make Jesus a bachelor came directly from Young Oon Kim. Even in 1956, I bet she knew, that her “destiny” was going to be in the United States. She worked as a secretary in the Chaplain’s Office of the U.S. 8th Army in Yongsan, Seoul…

This job with the American Army corresponds exactly, with when the first printing of the DP (in English) took place. That suggests to me, that the U.S. Military had quite the interest in getting the Divine Principle disseminated into English speaking countries as soon as possible. David Kim tells us that the English DP was distributed abroad ASAP:

“In the summer of 1956 Pastor Joshua McCabe visited Korea, staying for 80 days as the guest of David Kim. During that time he studied Reverend Moon’s teachings, meeting with him on several occasions. He also assisted Miss Young Oon Kim in translating these teachings into English, suggesting the title "Divine Principle” for the publication which was immediately distributed throughout the world.“

Wait a minute! We don’t even have missionaries in English speaking countries at this point! David Kim had already returned from Wales and was involved in the translation process. So what people then, did the U.S. Military want to read the Divine Principle at that time? One can only wonder!

Here’s a link that takes you to a photo of the cover of that original English DP…the article is interesting too:

The Korean members all knew, just how important Young Oon Kim was. They trusted her reasoning…how she could explain things, ect. I mean after all, what is the Divine Principle without a systematic theological approach that could potentially capture the brightest of intellects. Apparently, the Korean membership wanted to learn more from Miss Kim, than either Sun Myung Moon, or Hyo Won Eu. Take a look at what Miss Kim says here in 1964, while she’s in Korea:

"As I requested in my last letter, so many Korean members want to buy our English copies. About 300 copies are needed. The members here say that our English copy is easier to understand than the Korean copy of The Divine Principle.”

(https://www.tparents.org/Library/Unification/Publications/naf/NAF-1964-03-15.pdf, P.12)

“The Korean members are eager to have the English translation of the Divine Principles and study it. They want to have even the first edition. As much as 500 copies can be consumed. Since they do not know English well, they won’t mind some grammatical mistakes. Those who know English well, may buy the third edition…”

(https://www.tparents.org/Library/Unification/Publications/naf/NAF-1964-04-01.pdf, P.12)

HWDYKYM is “right on the mark” when it states that the DP was formulated as a doctrine to control the members. However, it is Miss Kim who had the most significant influence (in my opinion), on making this material “control” worthy…not only to control English speaking recruits, but Koreans as well. From that line of reasoning, it would seem to me, that the 1966 updated version of the Divine Principle, that we give Hyo Won Eu the credit for, and would ultimately be the source for the 1973 “Black Book” English DP version, that most of us early members joined with…that DP book then, is as much a result of Young Oon Kim’s input, as it is anyone else (Sorry, Won Bok Choi & Dan Fefferman).

And what about Young Oon Kim’s final version of the DP?…the one she published in 1969. What irks me to no end, in that book, is the fact that we’re led to believe that Mr. Moon married for the first time in 1960. Let’s look at some excerpts here:

Divine Principle and Its Application - Young Oon Kim  

Chapter XII - Dawn of the New Age

The 40 years following World War I have been the most complex and chaotic in all of history-but for a very definite purpose…

The Lord of the Second Advent comes to accomplish the mission that Adam failed to fulfill and that Jesus left unaccomplished. He is to establish the inviolable foundation of universal restoration…

God’s final dispensation, that of the Second Advent, has developed in three stages. The first stage was the arrival of the Lord of the New Age to the world. This was preceded by the opposing force of Wilhelm II, who caused World War I. The next stage was the start of the New Messiah’s ministry, which was preceded by the opposing force of Hitler, who caused World War II. The third stage is the initial fulfillment of the Lord’s mission, the role of Jacob in the scope of world restoration, which was marked by an event in 1960.

It has been implied throughout this book that the New Age has now dawned and that the Second Advent is being fulfilled by a man other than Jesus of Nazareth. Then from what part of the world and from what nation does the Lord of the Second Advent come?…The Lord of the Second Advent, the Avatar of the New Age, will appear in the East, bearing the seal of the living God. This has been reiterated through revelations for many years.

How do we recognize the Lord of the Second Advent as the true Christ, and distinguish him from forerunners and others who may lay claim to the title?

It is he who, through his prosecution and subjugation of Satan, established the crossing point between good and evil in 1960. At that time, the marriage of the Lamb prophesied in the 19th Chapter of Revelation took place. Thus, the Lord of the Second Advent and his Bride became the true Parents of mankind and formed the heavenly base of four positions for the first time.

(https://www.tparents.org/Library/Unification/Books/DP69/DP69-12.htm)

Young Oon Kim is making it clear to us that the 40 years after World War I, is a preparation period for the long awaited “Marriage of the Lamb”, which then infers that Mr. Moon was married for the first time in 1960. He’s the proverbial “40 year virgin” that Young Oon Kim, Bo Hi Pak & David Kim testified to (at least during the 1960s, anyway).

Those original Korean “so-called” missionaries to the United States, were all creating doctrinal beliefs about Sun Myung Moons’ life history, that would make the conclusion of the Divine Principle as convincing as possible. For if you believe in the conclusion…then it won’t be long before you are “under the spell” of the DP for life…a life of being controlled.

You have to hand it to Young Oon Kim…she had what it took to create an overall picture of human history, portrayed through the Divine Principle, that led to the establishment of not only the “lion share” of the American Movement…but also the entire European Movement as well. She did her job.

Thanks for nothing, Miss Kim!

As a little mental exercise, I'd like those who are willing, to try and "wrap your brains", around an American lieutenant colonel and 3 Korean men that are mentioned in a short letter...a letter written to Young Oon Kim in 1962:

Dear Miss Kim,

Thanks you so much for your letter. In 1960, we tried to locate you in Oregon but later found you had moved to California. As you no doubt realize, activities of the last months have excluded any letter writing–even my close friends (your three dedicated students) Sang, Bo Hi, and Bud. I hope some day we can meet.

Mrs. Butterwick joins in sending all good wishes.

Lt. Col. John T. Butterwick

690 Geneva Place Davis Islands, Tampa 6. Fla.

(http://www.tparents.org/Library/Unification/Publications/naf/NAF-1962-12-15.pdf, P.6)

Here are some questions:

1) Why was a U.S. military officer trying to “connect up” with Young Oon Kim shortly after she arrived in America in 1959? (Note: this is well before Bo Hi Pak arrived in the USA in 1961)

2) Did the U.S. Military have any interest in seeing what progress Miss Kim had made in refining/revising the Divine Principle? (Remember! The 1st English DP was published in 1956 when Miss Kim was working for the U.S. Military!)

3) When Lt. Col. Butterwick refers to “Sang, Bo Hi, and Bud”…is he referring to Kim Sang In, Bo Hi Pak and Bud Han?

4) And as “dedicated students” of Miss Kim…what was she teaching them?…only the DP?…or could it be more than just that?

Maybe some clues can be found in the INVESTIGATION OF KOREAN-AMERICAN RELATIONS (AKA “FRASER COMMITTEE”):

“In the late 1950’s, Moon’s message was favorably received by four young, English-speaking Korean Army officers, all of whom were later to provide important contacts with the post-1961 Korean Government. One was Pak Bo Hi, who had joined the ROK Army in 1950. Han Sang Keuk (aka Bud Han), a follower of Moon’s since the late 1950’s, became a personal assistant to Kim Jong Pil, the architect of the 1961 coup and founder of the KCIA. Kim Sang In (Steve Kim) retired from the ROK Army in May 1961, joined the KCIA and became an interpreter for Kim Jong Pil]. He continued as a close personal aide to Kim Jong Pil until 1966. At that time, Steve Kim returned to his position as KCIA officer, later to become the KCIA’s chief of station in Mexico City. He was a close friend of Pak Bo Hi and a supporter of the UC…”

Well, I guess that does it for now. I will, write again about Young Oon Kim. In some ways, my research on her…is of much greater interest than the research I’ve done on Sun Myung Moon.

‘Til the next,
