This document outlines the challenges facing achieving world peace and introduces the Universal Peace Federation's approach to addressing these issues. It discusses many conflicts affecting peace, from wars and violence to environmental degradation and the arms race. It then presents the Universal Peace Federation's vision of realizing a unified world of peace through five universal principles: 1) God is the True Parent of Humankind, 2) Humans are essentially spiritual in nature, 3) Marriage is a sacred institution and the family is a school of love, 4) Living for the sake of others, and 5) Interreligious and international cooperation. The UPF aims to educate about peace and facilitate family, religious and cultural unity to establish God's ideal of world peace.
The family is the fundamental unit of human society and the primary institution for cultural transmission. It provides the nurturing environment for children to develop virtues like respect through different spheres of familial love with parents, siblings, and spouses. Strong families focus outward on service to the community and greater good, thus providing the foundation for peaceful, harmonious societies and world peace.
Upf intro 5 principles of peace(morning lecture)marikinaラファエル アブロング
This document outlines the vision and principles of the Universal Peace Federation (UPF). It begins by describing the many conflicts facing the world today, from war and violence to poverty, environmental destruction, and the threat of nuclear weapons. It then introduces UPF, founded in 2005 to realize a unified world of peace based on universal principles. These principles include recognizing God as the true parent of all humanity, that humans are essentially spiritual beings, the importance of family and living for the sake of others. The document argues that by upholding these principles, strong families can create lasting peace from the smallest unit of society to the entire world.
The document outlines 5 principles of peace according to the Universal Peace Federation:
1) God is the true parent of humankind and all people are part of one human family under God.
2) Humans are essentially spiritual beings with both physical and spiritual aspects and needs.
3) Marriage and family are sacred institutions that are the school of love.
4) The ideal is to live for the sake of others from the individual to the global level.
5) Interreligious and international cooperation are essential to achieving world peace.
This document discusses the role of religion in moral education. It provides brief summaries of perspectives on moral education from various religious and historical figures, including St. Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and others. It also examines how religion can provide a model for moral development, a moral authority, strength in adversity, and unconditional love. Additionally, it explores how beliefs like an afterlife can enhance moral development and establish priorities like loving relationships and service.
This document discusses universal principles and life goals centered around true love. It presents that all people seek happiness and outlines three basic life goals - developing mature character, building loving relationships and family, and contributing to society. These goals are interconnected and finding true love, which is other-centered and ethical, is at the center. The document also discusses principles like duality, interaction, and growth. Overall, it provides a framework for achieving fulfillment and prosperity through cultivating character and embracing true love.
The document discusses the family as the basic unit of human society and the school of love. It argues that the family is vital for nurturing character, teaching relationships through four spheres of love (child, sibling, spouse, parent), and establishing the natural order of society. Strong families focus on serving the community and furthering world peace by bridging cultures and supporting peaceful nations.
The document discusses the consequences of the sexual revolution that began in the 1950s and abandoned traditional sexual constraints. This contributed to significant increases in sexually transmitted diseases from the 1950s to 1990s as well as a soaring increase in HIV/AIDS infections worldwide. The sexual revolution also led to personal and social problems as adolescents are developmentally unprepared for sex. Premarital sex can cause psychological harm and behavioral risks for teenagers. The culture of uncommitted sex has also impacted society through issues like pornography, out-of-wedlock births, and domestic violence.
This document discusses two models of family life education: a character-based model and a contraceptive-based model. The character-based model promotes abstaining from sex until marriage, supports parental values, and takes a morally directive approach, while the contraceptive-based model tolerates diverse values, promotes contraceptive use for sexually active teens, and takes a non-directive approach. The document raises doubts about the effectiveness of contraceptive-based education at reducing teen pregnancy and STD rates and suggests it may increase sexual activity, while character-based education that focuses on abstinence is presented as better supporting public health goals by reducing risky behavior.

This document discusses the need for a new ethic of love and sexuality that curbs excesses while enhancing personal and marital fulfillment. It argues that human sexuality involves both freedom and responsibility to one's conscience, spouse, and children. The document asserts that sex links the deepest aspects of one's being, including love, life, lineage, and conscience. It advocates for protective knowledge about love and sexuality, and discusses the viability and benefits of premarital sexual abstinence and fidelity within marriage.
This document discusses the decline of marriage and traditional family structures in recent decades. It notes rising divorce rates in the US and China since 1960. Children of divorced or single parents are at greater risk of various issues. Cohabitation and births outside of marriage are increasing but do not have the same benefits as traditional marriage. The document advocates for strengthening marriage through community support of healthy family values.
This document discusses the need for character education in schools. It notes that traditional education focused on passing on cultural values and moral standards, but that this broke down in the 1960s with the rise of moral relativism. It critiques the "values clarification" approach for being neutral towards values and ignoring traditional morality. The document argues for a universal, character-based approach to education with three dimensions: cultivation of the heart through love and moral examples, education in norms like rules and responsibilities, and education for mastery of academic and technical skills with an emphasis on ethics and contribution to society. It presents character education as developing mature, loving individuals who form strong relationships and contribute positively to the community.
This document provides guidance on building healthy marriages. It discusses strengthening one's own character, focusing on personal deficiencies rather than a spouse's, committing fully to allow love and intimacy to grow, maintaining fidelity and trust, becoming other-centered in one's love, investing in the relationship through kind acts and shared experiences, developing strong listening and conflict resolution skills, and finding balance and purpose together through service. The overall message is that marriage requires ongoing commitment, personal growth, and focusing outward to deepen the partnership.

This document discusses strategies for preventing drug use among youth. It argues that prevention is more effective and cost-efficient than enforcement and treatment. The primary reasons people begin taking drugs are to find fulfillment of basic life goals like mature character, loving relationships, and contribution to society. Drugs are often used as substitutes for these fulfillments. Risk factors for drug use include weak character, dysfunctional families, and social deficiencies, while protective factors are strong character, sound families, and healthy societies. Prevention works by promoting healthy lifestyles and reducing demand through education that cultivates morality, responsibility, and balanced personal growth.

It presents research showing volunteering is linked to greater social responsibility and well-being. Various types of service projects are described that can stimulate interest in serving others and strengthen relationships while providing learning opportunities and personal growth for volunteers.

This document discusses two models of family life education: a character-based model and a contraceptive-based model. The character-based model promotes abstaining from sex until marriage, supports parental values, and takes a morally directive approach, while the contraceptive-based model promotes teenage sexual activity as long as protection is used and takes a non-directive approach. The document argues the character-based model is more effective at reducing risky behaviors like teenage pregnancy and STDs by focusing on their underlying cause of premarital sex, and that contraceptive-based education has been linked to increased sexual activity among teens.

1) God has been in pain throughout history due to Satan's dominion over humanity. However, a new era after heaven's coming has now begun where humanity can attend God as the central being.
2) The document discusses getting rid of old paradigms and building new ones fitting the new era, as well as severing lineage from Satan and being grafted onto the lineage of the True Parents.
3) True love is the nucleus of God's creative works, as everything God did was for the sake of creation and developing them into partners of true love. Restoring true love involves separating from Satan, receiving the Messiah and being reborn through Holy Marriage, and following the Messiah.
