Truth of Life
The group’s web site describes it as "a nondenominational movement based on the belief that all religions emanate from one universal God. It is dedicated to spreading the truth that every person is a child of God; therefore, in reality every person is divine in nature and the possessor of all of the creative powers of God." It was directly inspired by the Religious Science movement of Ernest Holmes.
Masaharu Taniguchi was known for his vocal support of Japan’s fascist government during WW II.
