Early History of UU
Over the centuries, historical events suppressed and inspired religious thinking that led to Unitarian Universalism concepts. Unitarian Universalists over the ages have been radicals living in small minorities, often prolific writers and/or orators, who have brought us to who we are today. It began with Origen and Arius of Alexandria in the 3rd and 4th centuries proposing one God (Unity) rather than the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). This idea was suppressed under the Nicene Creed, the Crusades, European Wars of Religion, re-emerging through Reformation, Calvin’s TULIP, the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, and Transylvania!
Mary Anderson and Virginia McClintock will present this special 3-part series.
