Unitarian Universalism (UU)
draws from many sources:
·
Direct experience of that transcending
mystery and wonder, affirmed in all cultures, which moves us to a renewal
of the spirit and an openness to the forces which create and uphold life;
·
Words and deeds of prophetic
women and men which challenge us to confront powers and structures of
evil with justice, compassion, and the transforming power of love;
·
Wisdom from the world's
religions which inspires us in our ethical and spiritual life;
·
Christian and Jewish teachings
which call us to respond to God's love by loving our neighbors as
ourselves;
·
Humanist teachings which
counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and the results of science, and
warn us against idolatries of the mind and spirit.
·
Spiritual teachings of
earth-centered traditions which celebrate the sacred circle of life and
instruct us to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature.
