Ep. 7 The Moonies: The Most Influential Cult You've Never Heard Of Part 2
Welcome to Cults Anon, the podcast where we talk about cults!
Join me this week for part two of our deep dive into the Unification Church of The United States better known as the "Moonies" after their founder and charismatic leader Sun Myung Moon. This week we pick up Moon's saga in the 1960's with his infiltration of post world war II Japanese, Korean, and American societies as a supposed christian religious organization. Do the Moonies worship Jesus? Nope. Do they worship money, sex, and AK-47's? They sure do! Do they have a terrifying level of political control in the United States government? Of course! What nefarious cult doesn't? So lets talk about it.
*Content Warning* This podcast contains reference to material that some may find disturbing including descriptions of war crimes, sexual assault, rape, the sexual assault of children, and murder. Please listen with awareness and always practice self care.
