Extractions: Home Events Leadership Community ... FAQs Unitarian Universalism What do Unitarian Universalists believe? There are perhaps as many different answers to this as there are Unitarian Universalists! It may seem odd to some that members of one religion can vary so greatly in their beliefs but Unitarian Universalism is a non-creedal faith, meaning that no one is asked to subscribe to any one set of beliefs or creed. What, then, unites us? Unitarian Universalists share a commitment to the free search for meaning. We share a belief in the inherent worth and dignity of all humans, which is the first of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) principles, a faith statement entered into by each member congregation of the UUA.

Extractions: Tim Berners-Lee People have often asked me whether the Web design was influenced by Unitarian Universalist philosophy. I have to say that it wasn't explicitly, as I developed the Web well before I came across Unitarian Universalism at all. But looking back on it, I suppose that there are some parallels between the philosophies. Like many people, I had a religious upbringing which I rejected as a teenager: in my case it was a protestant Christian (Church of England) upbringing. I rejected it just after being "confirmed" and told how essential it was to believe in all kinds of unbelievable things. Since then I have discovered that many of the people around me who were "Christians" in fact used a sort of loose interpretation of some of that stuff, but it relieved a great tension just to say no. In fact, confirmation is when you say "yes", and well, we all make mistakes. In fact the need for the basis for Christian philosophy but without the dogma was a vacuum for many years. If you're used to other religions you might be confused by UUism being called a religion, but it qualifies I think. Like many people, I came back to religion when we had children. Why does everybody do this? Is it just that one feels that values and things are important for kids though one wouldn't have time for it otherwise? I hope not. Or is it that having kids is such a direct, strong, stark experience that it brings thoughts of life and love again bubbling up through the turgid morass which otherwise clogs our thinking? Or is it that it gives us an excuse? But for whatever, happenstance had our family living in the Boston area, where UU churches abound, and we were lucky enough to hit on a great one, with a great minister.

http://www.firstunitarianportland.org/about/history/UU_History.html

Extractions: Before the Christian era, the Greek philosopher Socrates put forth ideas on freedom that are basic to Unitarianism-the ideas of freedom of inquiry in religion as in everything else and freedom from superstition. Unitarianism as a movement began during the Reformation, although similar so-called heresies had arisen much earlier. Left-wing Protestants, particularly Anabaptists, pioneered such Unitarian principles as freedom of conscience, separation of church and state and the unity of God (as opposed to the Trinity). First martyred in the name of Unitarianism was the Spanish scientist Michael Servetus, who was burned at the stake as a heretic in 1553. Unitarianism also developed in Italy, where the Inquisition would later silence it. In Poland, there were 300 Unitarian churches in the year 1600, but the movement was stamped out by the Jesuits. In Transylvania (modern-day Romania and Hungary), there were 500 Unitarian churches by 1600. Here, Bishop Francis David and King John Sigismund helped it to flourish, providing religious freedom for all. Today, there are 100,000 Unitarians in Romania, despite centuries of persecution by Calvinists, Catholics, and Communists. Unitarianism never became an organized movement in most other parts of Europe, except for England.

UUFP's Website is hosted by EcpHosting With its historical roots in the Jewish and Christian traditions, Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion - that is, a religion that keeps an open mind to the religious questions people have struggled with in all times and places. We believe that personal experience, conscience and reason should be the final authorities in religion, and that in the end religious authority lies not in a book or person or institution, but in ourselves. We are a "non-creedal" religion: we do not ask anyone to subscribe to a creed. Our congregations are self-governing. Authority and responsibility are vested in the membership of the congregation. Each Unitarian Universalist congregation is involved in many kinds of programs. Worship is held regularly, the insights of the past and the present are shared with those who will create the future, service to the community is undertaken, and friendships are made. A visitor to a UU congregation will very likely find events and activities such as church school, day-care centers, lectures and forums, support groups, poetry festivals, family events, adult education classes and study groups.

It rests on the basic principle that individuals should be able to pursue religious truth according to their own conscience. Our congregations, including the Lake Shore Unitarian Society, are comprised of people with countless backgrounds and beliefs. We include agnostics as well as atheists; individuals born as Unitarians and those raised as Catholics, Protestants, Jews, and pagans. All are welcome under our "big tent." We are brought together by basic, funadamental beliefs concerning religion and how we should live our lives together. At Lake Shore, we begin our Sunday services by reciting together the following Unitarian Covenant, which sums up our perspective in perhaps its simplest form:

Extractions: George de Benneville is one of our UU Saints. Born in London in 1703 he nearly lost his life in France for preaching the heretical doctrine of Universalism. He lived the last half of his life in Pennsylvania, evangelizing, leading small group worship in his home, and working as a physician. Our local Unitarian Universalist camp and conference center is named in his honor. UUA: The First Forty Years Though Unitarians and Universalists have more than 200 years of separate history, the history of our combined tradition begins with the creation of the Unitarian Universalist Association in 1961. The forty years since have been filled with progress and plans that shape who we are and who we are becoming. Doing Religion Religions are often viewed as static depositories of beliefs and mythologies. We often ask, "What do you believe?" rather than "What do you do?" But most religions also offer a method designed to stimulate personal religious experiences among the followers. We'll examine what Unitarian Universalism and other religions do by way of spiritual practice. Arius, Socinus, Arminius

Extractions: Unitarian Universalism "Ours is a non-creedal, non-doctrinal religion which affirms the individual's freedom of belief." Unitarian Universalism is not an atheist movement, but a religious movement into which some atheists may comfortably fit. The movement proclaims the importance of individual freedom of belief, and it includes members from a wide spectrum of beliefs. Unitarianism and Universalism began in the 18th century as a reaction against some Christian doctrines. The movements joined together in 1961. Is it Atheist? The movement does not have an official definition of God, but allows members to "develop individual concepts of God that are meaningful to them." Members are entirely free to "reject the term and concept altogether." However, the movement's literature says: "Most of us do not believe in a supernatural, supreme being who can directly intervene in and alter human life or the mechanism of the natural world.
