Those that are seditious, murderers, thieves, robbers, adulterers, slanderers, etc., of whatsoever Church, whether national or not, ought to be punished and suppressed. But those whose doctrine is peaceable and whose manners are pure and blameless ought to be up on equal terms with their fellow-subjects. Thus if solemn assemblies, observations of festivals, public worship be permitted to any one sort of professors, all these things ought to be permitted to the Presbyterians, Independents, Anabaptists, Armenians, Quakers, and others, with the same liberty. Nay, if we may openly speak the truth, and as becomes one man to another, neither Pagan nor Mahometan, nor Jew, ought to be excluded from the civil rights of the commonwealth because of his religion. To people of small minds like Hassan and Singer, zealousness is a crime.
Violence is also difficult to understand.
God's way is to use violence for defense against violent aggressors or breakers of law. The problem is that people have different ideas on what defense is. Rev. Moon was seen by his jury in New York as a lawbreaker and sent to prison in Danbury, Connecticut for one year where he had to work in the kitchen washing dishes. Many major religions, including the National Council of Churches and famous ministers like Jerry Falwell denounced this as persecution. Senator Orrin Hatch, the head of the Senate Judiciary Committee, that appoints Supreme Court Justices, honored Rev. Moon by having him speak at a special subcommittee held on religious freedom on capitol hill.
