::I have to retract my criticism of the third reference [22], which I didn't look at carefully enough. I thought it was a single unnamed Japanese member claiming "supervision of Sang Hun Lee." It seems, rather, to be the work of the Unification Thought Institute, so it is a tertiary church publication and could legitimately be considered to be church teachings. This is a new development since I left the church. When I was a member, there was no official position on evolution, and even the varying opinions of members were hardly ever talked about. Moon's opinion is not in conflict with the church teachings, it was simply never formalized as a church teaching, at least not while I was a member. Asking for a reference to support the assertion that the church has no official teaching on a particular topic is obviously ludicrous! 

 ::In that light, we have 2 references that indicate that the church, and Moon, believe in Theistic evolution, one that claims "Opposition to evolution is found in many corners of the American religious landscape, including the Unification Church. Church founder Sun Myung Moon has frequently condemned darwinism for giving God no role in the history of life" (and goes on to talk about Wells's crusade), and one that uses hate speech and sloppy assumptions, but doesn't say the church opposes Darwinism. This article, however, says "evolution, which is opposed by Moon's Unification Church." It may be a minor discrepancy to those here who have a much wider margin of error when they quote me, but it is inexact and misleading as stated. -
