Sun Myung Moon, founder of the Unification Church ( many of whose members were targets of deprogramming ) issued this statement in 1983:

Rachel White Scheuering writes that, when SEPP began, it was affiliated with the Washington Institute for Values in Public Policy, a think tank run by Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church.

This is derived from the name of the church's founder Sun Myung Moon, and was first used in 1974 by the American media.

Church members have used the word " Moonie ", including Sun Myung Moon, President of the Unification Theological Seminary David Kim, and Moon's aide Bo Hi Pak.

The word " Moonie " is derived from the name of Sun Myung Moon, the founder and leader of the Unification Church.

The 2002 edition of The World Book Dictionary does not note a negative connotation, defining it simply as: " a follower of Sun Myung Moon "; nor does the 1999 edition of the Webster's II New College Dictionary, which defines it as " a member of the Unification Church established and headed by Sun Myung Moon.

The word " Moonie " was first used by the American news media in the 1970s when Sun Myung Moon moved to the United States and came into public notice through a series of public speeches he gave, including at Madison Square Garden in New York City in 1974 and Yankee Stadium and the grounds of the Washington Monument in 1976.

In 1978, Sun Myung Moon declared: " In two and a half years the word ' Moonie ' shall become an honorable name and we will have demonstrations and victory celebrations from coast to coast.

The principal aide to Sun Myung Moon, Bo Hi Pak, was quoted by Carlton Sherwood in his book Inquisition: The Persecution and Prosecution of the Reverend Sun Myung Moon as declaring to the United States Congress: " I am a proud Korean – a proud ' Moonie ' – and a dedicated anti-Communist and I intend to remain so the rest of my life.

During the United States v. Sun Myung Moon in 1982, federal prosecutors argued that the word " Moonie " be banned during the jury selection process because they said it was considered " a negative term ," and prejudicial in nature.

Defense counsel for Sun Myung Moon instead asserted use of the word in the jury selection process was necessary to identify the Unification Church and to question jurors about possible prejudice.

" Judge Gerard L. Goettel instructed the jury that the case involved the Unification Church, Sun Myung Moon, and his followers, whom the judge stated were " sometimes referred to as Moonies.

Sun Myung Moon directed minister and civil rights leader James Bevel to form a protest by religious officials against the Chicago Tribune because of the newspaper's use of the word.

This is a label which members of the Reverend Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church find demeaning and offensive, and I'd like to apologize for its use.

Because Moonies aren't as prevalent in our society today as they were several years ago ... some might mentioned the mass weddings performed by Sun Myung Moon.

Sun Myung Moon ( also known, to their dislike, as the Moonies ).

The True Family, in Unification Church terminology, is the family of church founder and leader Sun Myung Moon and his wife Hak Ja Han.

Unification theology teaches that Jesus achieved this perfection only on the individual level ( a lesser accomplishment than that of Sun Myung Moon and Hak Ja Han, they believe that had Jesus not died on the cross he would have married, together they would have become " True Parents " and created a " True Family " and they would save humanity and perfect the world.

Sun Myung Moon, founder of the Unification Church and the Washington Times, and his wife Hak Ja Han helped to financially stabilize the university through two of his organizations: News World Communications ( an international media firm which publishes the Washington Times and other news media ), which provided a $ 400, 000 loan to the university at 6 % interest ; and the Women's Federation for World Peace, which indirectly contributed $ 3. 5 million toward the school's debt.

In 2006, Tapsell spoke at an event with Hak Ja Han, wife of Unification Church leader Sun Myung Moon, and praised their teaching of a " concept of the ideal family as comprising a father, a mother, children and grandchildren " as being " very Māori.

Hak Ja Han ( Korean: 한학자, Hanja: 韓鶴子 ) or Hakja Han Moon ( born January 6, 1943 lunar calendar ) is an influential member of the Unification Church and the widow of the church's founder, Sun Myung Moon.

Heung Jin Moon ( Korean: 문흥진 ) ( October 23, 1966-January 2, 1984 ), also referred to by members of the Unification Church as Heung Jin Nim or posthumously as Lord Heung Jin Nim ( Korean: 흥진님 귀족 ):, was the second son of church founders Sun Myung Moon and Hak Ja Han.

To " set an example ", at the age of 71, he and Maria Sung, a 43-year-old Korean acupuncturist, married in a blessing ceremony in New York, presided over by Sun Myung Moon and Hak Ja Han Moon.

However, palace eunuch Sun Cheng ( d. 132 CE ) masterminded a successful overthrow of her regime to enthrone Emperor Shun of Han ( r. 125 – 144 CE ).

Sun Quan was born in 182, while his father Sun Jian was still a general of the Han Dynasty.

Sun Quan did not immediately submit to Wei or declare independence after Cao Pi's enthronement, but took a wait-and-see attitude ; by contrast, in early 221, Liu Bei declared himself emperor, establishing the state of Shu Han.

In 229, Sun Quan declared himself emperor, which almost damaged the alliance with Shu, as many Shu officials saw this as a sign of betrayal of the Han Dynasty — to which Shu claimed to be the legitimate successor.

Lu Xun, the commander of Sun Quan's forces, refrains from pursuing the retreating Shu Han troops after encountering Zhuge Liang's Stone Sentinel Maze.

After Liu Bei's death, as advised by Sima Yi, Cao Pi induces several forces, including Sun Quan, turncoat Shu general Meng Da, Meng Huo of the Nanman and the Qiang tribes, to attack Shu Han, in coordination with a Cao Wei army.

An envoy from Shu Han named Deng Zhi subsequently persuades Sun Quan to renew the former alliance with Shu Han.

Sun Ce ( 175 – 200 ) was a military general and warlord during the late Han Dynasty period of Chinese history.

Born in 175, Sun Ce was the eldest among five sons and one daughter of Sun Jian, a military general loyal to the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

During the battle, Sun Ce slew Liu Biao's officer, Han Xi ( 韓希 ), and completely routed Huang Zu's son, Huang She ( 黃射 ).

Huang Gai was a military general who served the warlord Sun family of Eastern Wu for three generations during the late Han Dynasty and Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history.

The defense force led by Liu Biao's subject Huang Zu was defeated by Sun Jian, who pursued the enemy across the Han River to Xiangyang.

Lü Meng ( 178 – 220 ) was a military general serving under the warlord Sun Quan during the late Han Dynasty period of Chinese history.

However, Liu Bei of Shu Han immediately contested Cao Pi's claim to the Han throne, and Sun Quan of Eastern Wu followed suit in 222.

Zhuge Liang felt that it was more important for Shu to attack and topple the Wei government and restore legitimacy to the Han Dynasty, hence he made peace with Sun Quan and reaffirmed Shu's alliance with Sun.
