In Unitarian Universalism, I have found a spiritual home. The  Official UU Site  can tell you a great deal more about "UU" than I have space for here. Instead, I will tell you what in UU resonates most strongly with me.

First, UU is non doctrinal. There is no profession of faith that you have to agree with. I was baptized an Episcopalian, and attended a university affiliated with that denomination. While the Episcopal Church is certainly progressive, it still has articles of religion that I can no longer consider meaningful.

Second, UU honors religious traditions that do not have Jewish or Christian roots. Of special importance to me is its willingness to embrace spirituality which is Earth centered.

Third, UU is accepting. Categories and labels that are issues in other denominations are simply meaningless in UU, since UU does not consider any one book of wisdom, or spiritual path, to be completely normative. Matters such as race, gender and sexual preference are not divisive within UU, because there is no "code" to make them so. As a nurse, my patients are patients, period. As a UU, my fellow human beings are human beings, period.
