CAUSA

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

CAUSA is an ideological and political organization created by members of the Unification Church at the suggestion of Rev. Sun Myung Moon.

• Reverend Moon had intuited the need for a new initiative to support Latin American governments which were increasingly under pressure because of the communist takeover of Nicaragua and the growth of communist insurrection in countries such as El Salvador, Guatemala, and Peru. At that time, CAUSA International was born ...

Most of the work of organizing and directing CAUSA fell to longtime Moon aide Bo Hi Pak, a former South Korean military officer.

• Under the direct guidance of Reverend Moon, he played the key role in developing the CAUSA lecture materials and in shaping the content, format, and focuses of CAUSA and the American Leadership Conference, organizations which played a frontline role in educating religious, civic, political, and military leaders throughout the world in the inherent contradictions and limitations of Marxist ideology. Part of the intensity of Dr. Pak's lifelong commitment to freedom and democratic institutions stems from his own first-hand experience of the wanton destructiveness of communism. [1]
