Save the Seven Principles Group

Meets: 2nd Fridays at 3:00 PM starting Friday, January 12th

The purpose of the Save the Seven Principles Group is to advocate for the preservation of the seven principles as the primary statement of Unitarian Universalism with only minor modifications. We argue that statements of Unitarian Universalist principles or values should be timeless, universal, and come from religious rather than political perspectives.

We study the Seven Principles and alternative proposed statements of principles or values for the Unitarian Universalist faith. We try to provide faithful guidance on these alternatives to UUFBRF and the UUA. We listen to differing points of view on such statements with an open mind and discuss their strengths and weaknesses.

“The Principles are not dogma or doctrine, but rather a guide for those of us who choose to join and participate in Unitarian Universalist religious communities.” 1. 1st Principle: The inherent worth and dignity of every person; 2. 2nd Principle: Justice, equity and compassion in human relations; 3. 3rd Principle: Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations; 4. 4th Principle: A free and responsible search for truth and meaning; 5. 5th Principle: The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large; 6. 6th Principle: The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all; 7. 7th Principle: 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.
