MightyMouse 03-19-04, 03:42 PM [QUOTE]Originally posted by fasttalkingmom [B]I've never heard of most of these. What is Unitarian Universalism? uniterian universalists are a subsect of Christianity that have a belief that all of mankind will end up in heaven with God and that no one will actually be sent to hell. Basically, no matter what someone does in the end God will forgive them. Please note that this is a BRIEF paraphrase and summary of universalism and does not reflect its entire line of thinking. Hope this helped MM :yin-yang: MightyMouse 03-19-04, 03:44 PM I just took the quiz myself and here are the results: 1. Hinduism (100%) 2. Mahayana Buddhism (97%) 3. Sikhism (96%) 4. Jainism (95%) 5. Neo-Pagan (90%) I'm not exactly sure how my answers led to a match with Hinduism, but it was a fun test anyway. MM Ace 03-19-04, 08:01 PM My husband and I were married in the Unitarian "faith." I believe from prior participation in Unitarianism that a belief in God or a god or gods is not required. It certainly wasn't required or even expected at the church we attended in Montcalir or Ridgewood, New Jersey. I think of U-U-ism as a "church" where secular humanists congregate on Sundays to think about how life on earth can be lived with fuller awareness of ethics and values. U-U's also enjoy fellowshipping and hearing messages shared with the congregation without sermonizing. Unitarianism was, in the days i "did" it, a place where families with mixed ethnic and religious heritages could meld their backgrounds and form their own set of core beliefs to guide their lives and teach their children. Just my experience. Nucking_Futs 03-19-04, 08:08 PM I dunno Ace sound's pretty cool to me. I'm alway's interested in learning new thing's not that I will actually retain it but interested none the less. Jellybean 03-19-04, 08:30 PM Here is a lot of info on Unitarian religon: Unlike most religions, the Unitarian religion is an "inner faith", rather than an "external" faith - a faith which comes from deep within and from the core of every person - rather than resting upon any 'external' religion. And this is entirely and totally natural. Let me put is this way. Every baby born into this world needs to be nurtured, protected, taught and guided in order to survive, grow up and function in its society. But, and eventually, there comes a time in the life of every human being when the young adult must leave the safety, comfort and guidance of his or her family, in order to stand on his or her own feet, follow his or her own path, priorities, ethics, values and calling, and take full responsibility for his or her actions. This is an absolute necessity for the unfolding of the full potential of the young adult. For we are not copies of our parents; we are, like all things in this universe, each a unique individual, and we all require this freedom for our full potential to unfold, and to allow us become and be what we are. This is also, and by the way, the ultimate foundation and driving force of democracy - it also allows us to be what we are. And so it is, exactly, with the Unitarians or Unitarian Universalists. There also comes a time in our lives when the 'external' authority of the religion we 'grew up' with becomes replaced by a deep and abiding inner faith, a faith which is as uniquely individual as we are. Naturally then, and since our inner faiths are as individual as we are, there cannot be any ultimate religious authority, no religious hierarchy, no bible, no dogma, no 'Pope, no 'Cardinals', not denominational hierarchy, no Guru', no 'Spiritual Leader'. Instead, there is this deep and abiding inner faith which every member brings to our congregations, in whatever form it may be. And although Unitarianism is loosely based on judeo-christian traditions, there are then, and naturally, no restrictions nor limitations in faith. For Unitarians, every human being is as valid as any other human being, regardless of the label of the religion they may have grown up with, come from, or haven't bothered with. Nor does the Unitarian faith require anyone to abandon their religion or beliefs. It does not matter therefore whether people call themselves Christian, Jew, Buddhist, Hindu, Moslem, Shinto, Pagan, Pantheist, Wiccan, Humanist, New Age, what have you - and yes, even Atheist. All that matters is their deep inner faith in the transcendental and de facto "unity of humankind", and an essential respect for the worth and dignity of every human being, regardless of gender, colour, religion or anything else, as expressed in the seven Unitarian covenants. This is also absolutely valid from a spiritual point of view; a soul is a soul, is a soul, is a soul - no matter what - and as valid as any other soul, no matter how wretched or exalted. For this reason, every soul is also by far the best qualified to commune with its maker. It is for all of these reasons that Unitarian Chaplains will cheerfully marry two people of, let's say, the Jewish and the Hindu religions, for instance. If two individuals want to transcend the restrictions of their personal religions in order to make a life together, this, and their love for each other, is all that matters. For the same reasons, the Unitarian faith has no prescribed rituals, observances, prayers, manner of dress or codes of behavior. For all of these reasons then, and naturally, Unitarian congregations are also democratic congregations, and each congregation sets its priorities, aims and direction according to the consensus of its members. And for the same reasons, Unitarians cheerfully ordain women into their ministries - and were indeed the first religion to do so long ago. Instead, Unitarians appreciate, encourage and support each other in the unfolding and expression of their individual inner faiths, and cherish the rich, and so enriching variety of inner faiths within our congregations. What you will find in Unitarian congregations then is an open and supportive community of people who have come to a stage in their lives where they have either developed their own deep and abiding inner faith, or are ready and searching for such a faith - a faith they can call their own. Last but not least, and since humanity is, right now, in the midst of creating its first global culture, the Unitarian faith is also a most fitting "Faith For Our Time". fasttalkingmom 03-19-04, 09:37 PM Thanks MightyMouse......that's so not me !!!

It's a little too heavy for me, Secular Humanism matches me better IMO but I do think there is such a thing as good and compassion, not just science though it's importance is inside our heads and built into the human survival instinct.

I never would have guessed.:confused: MightyMouse 02-25-05, 06:01 PM Energy cannot be destroyed only changed to a different form (I believe it was einstien who said that) Just an FYI Garry. It wasn't Einstein, but the first law of thermodynamics (a.k.a. Law of conservation of energy/matter) states, "energy/matter can be neither created or destroyed; only changed into different forms. Therefore, the total amount of energy in the universe is a constant." For some trivia points: The second law of thermodynamics states that if engergy is not relased in a system during energy exchange, then potential and kinetic engergy is equal. PE=KE or mgh=1/2mv^2. Have fun w/ that one.
