統一教夫妻

南韓宗教界的傳奇人物文鮮明,今天清晨病逝於醫院。文鮮明生前常幫彼此陌生的信徒配對結婚,但外界對這種"亂點鴛鴦譜"的婚姻,一直有疑慮。民視獨家採訪到一對由文鮮明配對的夫妻,他們從素昧平生到被指派完婚,至今已經13年。他們不但不反對,還說以後希望子女也能繼續這種奇特的結婚方式。

教徒分布在180國,共有7百萬人的南韓統一教創辦人文鮮明過世,台北的教友下午也舉辦禱告會追思。

其實統一教在台灣,大家印象最深刻的恐怕是,文牧師會逕行幫男女教徒配對結婚,還會盛大舉辦集團婚禮。像這對夫妻,接受文鮮明配對成婚至今已經13年。

“只要是文牧師配的,不管什麼樣的對象,都願意去接受”

沒有戀愛基礎,卻要成為夫妻,兩人坦承也發生過爭吵,不過兩人透國虔誠的宗教信仰化解歧異,甚至希望自己的兒女也這樣做。

“不只是我們接受這樣的祝福,我們也會希望,我們自己的子女,未來也能夠,他們另外一半,也是通過這樣子婚配的方式”

統一教不只是宗教團體,還有許多營利企業,在美國還有一間華盛頓時報,立場非常保守。文鮮明過世後,他的宗教事業和企業王國,將交由多名子女繼續經營,其中么子文亨進會繼續領導統一教。

Sun Myung Moon, the head of the Unification Church and the leader of millions of worshipers around the world, died this morning in South Korea. Moon is perhaps best known for randomly pairing thousands of couples together in large, mass weddings.

The Unification Church has 7 million followers in 180 countries. Today it mourns the passing of its founder, Sun Myung Moon. In Taipei, a special memorial service was held this afternoon.

The Unification Church in Taiwan may be best known for ministers pairing men and women in marriage in grand mass weddings. One such local couple accepted Reverend Moon’s pairing and has been married for the past 13 years.

As long as Reverent Moon paired us, it didn’t matter who the spouse was, I was willing to accept the decision.

This marriage was different than the traditional ideal of being rooted in love. The husband and wife quarrel, but they share devout religious beliefs that help them resolve disagreements. They also hope their children can experience the same situation.

We not only accept this blessing, but we also hope that our children can find their spouse through a similar marriage arrangement.

The passing of Reverend Moon not only affects the operation of the Unification Church but also a number of for-profit enterprises held by the church, such as the conservative publication “The Washington Times.” With Reverend Moon’s passing, his children will take over the religious and business operations of the Unification Church.
