Founder
Part of the speech that the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, the founder of ICUS,
gave at ICUS XVI in Atlanta, Georgia
I recall reading Dr. Moon’s speech, the main purpose for these many specialists to convene together was to learn how to live for the sake of others and practice giving our best efforts even our love for the public purpose. We could say we are learning how to build heaven on earth.
