  • See all the other videos at the YouTube site on the UUA--and visit the UUA website if you're still interesteed.

    The UUA is the single expression of spiritual freedom and question that I know in the USA. I am a UU and a non-deist (do not accept the Christian--or any doctrine. I am comfortable in the congregation-Fellowship I attend--which would not be the same if I attended the one in Dallas. Yet, both can be at home within Unitarian-Universalism. See the Seven Principles.

  • I love it, a church that is not into violence and war, I love it.

  • you are precisely correct. UUs believe quite strongly in congregational polity (autonomy) and as such each congregation has its own "personality". Some are very "traditional" so to say leaning almost towards mainstream Christianity while are others are completely lay led and have a humanistic approach at the other end of the spectrum.

  • Don't know much bout Unitarians, but do they follow the Congregationalist approach; allowing doctrine to be determined more or less by the individual church? If so then it would make sense that some differences would occur as to beliefs amongst Unitarian churches. Correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Why not let them be what they want to be? It sounds like you are the one who is not too accepting.

  • I am a U*U, and was a founding member of a UU congregation in Warsaw, Poland [no probably defunct?].

    But I am an agnostic, so your video from Dallas is far to GNOSTIC for me. UU is supposedly an accepting, relatively secular religion, focusing on ethics NOT dogma.  So, please make room for us too.
