Borderlands Unitarian Universalist
Amado, ArizonaWhat We Believe
As Unitarian Universalist We Believe In The Seven Principles…
which we hold as strong values and moral guides. We believe and live out these Principles within a “living tradition” of wisdom and spirituality, drawn from sources as diverse as science, poetry, scripture, and personal experience.
First Principle: The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
Second Principle: Justice, equity and compassion in human relations;
Third Principle: Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
Fourth Principle: A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
Fifth: Principle: The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
Sixth Principle: The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
Seventh Principle: Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.
As Unitarian Universalist We Believe: In The Six Sources our congregations affirm and promote:
– We believe in the 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 that create and uphold life;
– Words and deeds of prophetic people 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;
– Teaching of the Christian and Jewish religions 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.
