​

Unitarian Universalism affirms and promotes seven Principles, grounded in the humanistic teachings of the world's religions. Our spirituality is unbounded, drawing from scripture and science, nature and philosophy, personal experience and ancient tradition as described in our six sources.

​

The Seven 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 relations.

• A free and responsible search for truth and meaning.

• The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process 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.

The seven Principles and six Sources of the Unitarian Universalist Association grew out of the grassroots of our communities, were affirmed democratically, and are part of who we are. Read them as they are written in our UUA Bylaws.
