leaders have issued warnings about the Unification Church and fear blacks have
become pawns in CAUSA‟s overall strategy to spread its ultra-conservative anti-
communist world-view (Craney. Op. Cit., pp. 115, 117, 118). Some claim the
Unification Church‟s real agenda in wooing black church leadership is “to dismantle the
black church and to discredit black leadership,” (Craney. Op. Cit., p. 116) and, “in
collusion with elements of the Christian Right, to derail the black progressive
movement” (Craney. Op. Cit., p. 115).
