(RNS) The Unitarian Universalist Association, while eschewing religious tenets, espouses seven shared 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 in our congregations;
— A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
— The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our 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.
