Understanding Unitarian Universialism

No sacred texts, no real founders. Generally a well-to do congregation. Many early thought leaders they follow. They followed parts of the Bible early on but rejected parts of it in deference to man's logic. As time went on they began to slide toward humanism and merge w/universalits. They follow 7 main principles. 1.) Inherent worth & dignity of every person. Everyone came from evolution w/a rejection of original sin & sin nature. 2.) Justice & compassion in human relations. 3.) Acceptance of one another & encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregation. Tolerate everyone except those who they deem as intolerant of others. Don't push your belief on anyone else. 4.) A free & responsible search for truth & meaning. Many are looking for inspirational sayings & teachings in many books. 5.) The right on conscience & the use of democratic process w/in our congregation & society @ large. Very socially active. 6.) Goal of world community is world peace, justice for all. 7.) Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we're a part of. Many reject a triune God, Jesus as the God-Man, and the exclusive aspects of the Bible. But Jesus is very exclusive & states very clearly that he is the ONLY way to God. Talking w/a UU takes many hours & requires prayer & an appeal to their logic of not everyone able to be right @ the same time.
