make laws immediately to bring an end to segregation and discrimination and
to bring an end to the rights of states that are unconstitutional to have their

Premier Hiroshima:
Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of Japan
Your Excellency:
I, Rev. M. J. Divine, known throughout the universe as FATHER DIVINE, for
humanity's sake and the redemption of millions of human bodies, do hereby request,
appeal and demand of you and yours an immediate unconditional surrender, as
you can see the results of this inhuman global war, which has cost the lives
of upward of forty million souls. You can see the predicament of your Axis
comrades and the destruction they brought upon themselves and their subjects
and millions of the American allies, as well as billions of dollars in natural
and national resources, only to be obliged to unconditionally surrender or
be totally annihilated and become extinct. It is, therefore, essential for
you, and the only hope of your redemption and the redemption of your nation,
to make an unconditional surrender immediately!
With the hope that others might be even as I AM, this leaves ME Well, Healthy,
joyful, Peaceful, Lively, Loving, Successful, Prosperous and Happy in Spirit,
Body and Mind and in every muscle, organ, sinew, joint, limb, vein and bone,
and even in every atom, fibre and cell of My Bodily Form.
Respectfully and Sincere, I AM
s/ REV. M. J. DIVINE
