Theme : Respect for the interdependent web of all existence, of which we are a part (7th Principle)
April 28: The Eighth Principle, Article II, and Being a “Good UU”
Presenter: Phil Lund; Coordinator: Gail Opatz
Since its introduction over a decade ago, the proposed 8th Principle of Unitarian Universalism has been adopted by almost 300 UU congregations in North America. Also, for the last five years the UUA’s Article II Study Commission has been working on changes to the Association’s bylaws, changes that could ultimately replace our current Seven Principles. This morning we’ll explore how these two initiatives intersect and what they say about the future of our faith and what it means to be a “good UU.” Phil Lund’s bio is in the April Newsletter.
