Unitarian Universalists Offer A Religious Alternative

For the churched or unchurched in search of a spiritual home
For folks seeking a religion without dogma
For parents who wish their children encouraged to think independently about religion and values
For couples in interfaith marriages
For free thinkers, questioners, seekers, doubters, and explorers
For straight, gay, lesbian, transgender, queer and questioning individuals looking for a welcoming and affirming religious community
For all who are looking for a meaning and purpose; to connect to something greater

Unitarian Universalists hold the Principles as strong values and moral teachings. As Rev. Barbara Wells ten Hove explains, “The Principles are not dogma or doctrine, but rather a guide for those of us who choose to join and participate in Unitarian Universalist religious communities.”

1. 1st Principle: The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
2. 2nd Principle: Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
3. 3rd Principle: Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
4. 4th Principle: A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
5. 5th Principle: The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
6. 6th Principle: The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
7. 7th Principle: Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.
8. 8th Principle: We covenant to affirm and promote journeying toward spiritual wholeness by building a diverse, multicultural Beloved Community
   by our actions that accountably dismantle
   racism and other oppressionsin ourselves and our institutions.
