Home Unitarian Universalism Unitarian Universalism Although Unitarian thought can be found throughout the history of the development of religion in Europe, modern Unitarian Universalism in the United States descends from two movements that developed in the 18th and 19th centuries: Unitarianism , which affirmed the unity of God (as opposed to the trinity) and emphasized reason as a test for theological truth; and Universalism , which proclaimed universal salvation for all humans. By the mid-1900s, these groups had evolved to share a common philosophy of religious tolerance and ethical responsibility. In 1961, they united as the Unitarian Universalist Association. Our congregation welcomes racial, cultural, and sexual diversity.

Home Unitarian Universalism What do Unitarian Univeralists Believe? What do Unitarian Universalists Believe? As a liberal religious congregation, Unitarian Universalists are open-minded to religious beliefs and questions. We accept personal experience, conscience and reason as our guide for religious experience. The free search for truth may best characterize our non-creedal religion. As religious wisdom changes so does human understanding, and we encourage the study of truths from many prophets and teachers of many religions. We believe all people, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, religious belief, or sexual orientation, have inherent worth. We celebrate their different experiences, opinions, and lifestyles. We believe in moral and ethical living, striving to live with compassion, and maintaining the rational of justice and equality. We subscribe to the principles and purposes adopted by our national organization, the Unitarian Universalist Association. As a congregation, we agree to affirm and promote: The inherent worth and dignity of every person Justice, equity, and compassion in human relations

In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery and death. I see the world gradually being turned into a wilderness, I hear the ever-approaching thunder, which will destroy us, too, I can feel the suffering of millions, and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come out right, that this cruelty will end, and that peace and tranquility will return again. In the meantime, I must hold up my ideals for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out.

48. What Is Unitarian Universalism? What is unitarian universalism? Most simply, unitarian universalism is a religiousmovement based on principles of respect, compassion, freedom, and justice. http://www.mluuc.org/whatis.html

What is Unitarian Universalism? A very complex question, and one that can't be fully explained in a paragraph or two. Most simply, Unitarian Universalism is a religious movement based on principles of respect, compassion, freedom, and justice. It is a belief that one learns to be closer to "God" or "the truth," or "the ultimate," or "honest living," or whatever you see as the ultimate state of being, by examining, learning, questioning, loving, and being open to new answers rather than blindly following a fixed creed. It is a commitment to living honestly and intentionally. UUism is a creedless, free religion; there is no theological test for membership. We are encouraged to find insights from all the world's great faiths. We believe that no single religion has the ultimate truth about God, creation, death, and the human spirit. We invite people to be responsible, grateful for life's blessings, cherish the earth, and free the oppressed. From a combination of reflection and experience, each one of us shapes a personal faith. The Seven Principles of Unitarian Universalism Unitarian Universalists have no creeds or dogmas. They are guided by the Seven Principles which bind members and churches together. These principles are as follows:

Services Religious Education Special Events Home ... Get More Info What is Unitarian Universalism? Unitarian Universalism is a liberal, creedless religion with Judeo-Christian roots. It teaches tolerance and respect for other religious viewpoints. Members frequently come from other religious backgrounds, and the denomination and its members are noted for service to the community, the nation and the world. Unitarian Universalism has a long heritage that goes back hundreds of years to courageous people who struggled for freedom in thought and faith. Unitarianism and Unversalism started as separate movements beginning in the 1500's emphasizing a search for religious truth and a tradition of inclusiveness. In this country, congregations date back to the Massachusetts settlers and the founders of the republic. In 1961, Unitarians and Universalists merged to form the Unitarian Universalist Association, and today there are more than one thousand congregations in the US and Canada. The members covenant to affirm and promote these seven guiding principles: The inherent worth and dignity of every person;

About Unitarian Universalism Universalists, organized in 1793, and Unitarians, organized in 1825, shared a rich heritage of religious liberalism and social concern. The two organizations consolidated in 1961 to form the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA). Today, our congregation is among the more than 1,000 congregations which comprise the UUA. The Unitarian Church of Lincoln was formed on May 27, 1898, when 96 persons signed as charter members. Our first home was a large brick structure at 12th and H streets. In 1960, the congregation built a new church, its current home, at 6300 A Street, and the first service was held in the new building on October 1, 1961. Current membership of the Lincoln church is about 380. Our congregation subscribes to the principles of the UUA and to the living tradition underlying those principles. A Congregational Survey conducted in 1997 demonstrates the liberal cast of our congregation. Many non-Unitarian Universalists are confused about what our church stands for. We have no creed or dogma, and each member is free to search out her or his own version of the Truth (with or without a capital "T"). One helpful sourcebook for non-Unitarian Universalists who want to learn more about us is 100 Questions that Non-Members Ask about Unitarian Universalism . This book was published by the Nashua, NH, church, and is a good starting place to learn about us.

What is Unitarian Universalism? U nitarian Universalism is a liberal religion born of the Jewish and Christian traditions. We keep our minds open to the religious questions people have struggled with in all timess and places. W e believe that personal experience, conscience and reason should be the final authorities in religion. In the end religious authority lies not in a book or person or institution, but in ourselves. We put religious insights to the test of our hearts and minds. W e uphold the free search for truth. We will not be bound by a statement of belief. We do not ask anyone to subscribe to creed. We say ours is a noncreedal religion. Ours is a free faith. W e affirm the worth of all women and men. We believe people should be encouraged to think for themselves. We know people differ in their opinions and life-styles and believe these differences generally should be honored. W e seek to act as a moral force in the world, believing that ethical living is the supreme witness of religion. The here and now and the effects our actions will have on future generations deeply concern us. We know that our relationships with one another, with other peoples, races and nations, should be governed by justice, equity and compassion. T hese are the Seven Principles and Purposes of Unitarian Universalism: The inherent worth and dignity of every person

Unitarian Universalist Because there have always been men and women who question the religion handed them in childhood, a religion of the free mind, like today’s Unitarian Universalism, was inevitable. The Unitarian and Universalist movements both germinated in specific religious issues. Though Jesus has been dead several hundred years before the word “Unitarian” came into use, the movement that eventually acquired that label began shortly after his death. Trinitarians, who believed in, “God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost,” said that those who stressed the unity of God (later known as Unitarians) were heretics. Many of the Unitarians were executed for their beliefs. Seeds of Universalism were being planted by the articulate and prolific intellectual, Origen. Origen, who, like the Unitarians, stressed the humanity of Jesus, argued that there was no hell and talked of a benevolent god who would offer salvation to all people. Universal Salvation, hence the name Universalist. John Murray helped deliver the Universalist movement safely to the shores of America. In 1779 Murray occupied the pulpit of the Independent Christian Church of Gloucester, Massachusetts, which was the first organized Universalist church in America.

57. Flaming Chalice The Chalice is the symbol of unitarian universalismAt the opening of Unitarian Universalistworship services, many congregations light a flame inside a chalice http://uufnorthiowa.org/flamingchalice.htm

History of the Flaming Chalice Adapted from the pamphlet "The Flaming Chalice" by Daniel D. Hotchkiss. At the opening of Unitarian Universalist worship services, many congregations light a flame inside a chalice. This flaming chalice has become a well-known symbol of our denomination. It unites our members in worship and symbolizes the spirit of our work. The chalice and the flame were brought together as a Unitarian symbol by an Austrian artist, Hans Deutsch, in 1941. Living in Paris during the 1930's Deutsch drew critical cartoons of Adolf Hitler. When the Nazis invaded Paris in 1940, he abandoned all he had and fled to the South of France, then to Spain, and finally, with an altered passport, into Portugal. There, he met the Reverend Charles Joy, executive director of the Unitarian Service Committee (USC). The Service Committee was new, founded in Boston to assist Eastern Europeans, among them Unitarians as well as Jews, who needed to escape Nazi persecution. From his Lisbon headquarters, Joy oversaw a secret network of couriers and agents. Charles Joy felt that this new, unknown organisation needed some visual image to represent Unitarianism to the world, especially when dealing with government agencies abroad.
