Question
what is unitarianism?

Answer
In simple words, Unitarianism is the belief in the the unity, or oneness, of God.

In the USA, Unitarian Universalism has grown beyond its simple beginnings.  With its historical roots in the Jewish and Christian traditions, Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion -- that is, a religion that keeps an open mind to the religious questions people have struggled with in all times and places. We believe that personal experience, conscience and reason should be the final authorities in religion, and that in the end religious authority lies not in a book or person or institution, but in ourselves. We are a "non-creedal" religion: we do not ask anyone to subscribe to a creed.
