Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religious tradition dedicated to a "free and responsible search for truth and meaning". We believe no religion has a monopoly on truth, and we seek wisdom from a variety of religious and secular sources. Our congregation includes liberal Christians, (neo)Pagans, and Buddhists, as well as humanists, agnostics, and atheists. We are a non-creedal, non-authoritarian tradition united by a commitment to social justice, a shared search for spiritual growth, and especially by our shared values, as articulated by our 7 Principles:
- The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
- Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
- Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
- A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
- The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
- The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
- Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.
We believe we all have something to teach, and we all have something to learn. For more information about Unitarian Universalism, please visit:
