I have gotten lots of questions about what being a UU means. The Seven Principles do say a lot:
-
The inherent worth and dignity of every person.
-
Justice, equitey and compassion in human relations.
-
Aceptance of one another and enouragement to spritual growth in our congregations.
-
A free and responsible search for truth and meanting.
-
The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in socety 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.
But then, I would hope that this is true for all religion, not just Unitarian Universalism. I admit that I'm not the greatest when it comes to expounding on anything, let alone something close to my heart. I will never be the theological statesmen (woman?) that could change the tide with just a few well placed lines. The best thing I can say about it is that it's a large supportive community of people that are choosing what to believe instead of being told what to believe; we look at many books for spiritual inspiration instead of only one. But, in an effort to answer those questions further and not leave you reeling in dizzyness because you have no idea what I just said, here are a few Youtube vids and some links.
