Do Unitarians really NOT believe in anything? I thought you could believe in anything or not believe in anything to be a member.

Honestly I don't know, but that is what I was aware of. Unitarian Christianity at least is belief in Jesus, but not the Trinity. Or that is what I was told.

Unitarian-Universalists and Episcopalians are some places you may want to check out. Some, but not all individual ELCA Lutheran churches as well.

Fixed it for you (The entire denomination is for this, organizationally speaking.)


And this is why I was thinking universalist Sorry, Vito, we were on different tracks!

Without in any way denigrating the 10 Commandments or their importance, this is just way hyperbolic. (And not true.)

All depends where you are. In your part of the country, probably so. In my part of the country, not so much.

And quite humorous.

In a predominantly Christian country, people claim that the founding fathers were diehard Christians who based everything on Christian principles (as though Christian principles, in general, are all that unique to Christianity).

Similarly, in GLOs where the members are predominantly Christian, members tend to claim that the founders were diehard Christians who based everything on Christian principles.

They don't need evidence for these claims nor do they need to be silenced by evidence to the contrary. LOL.
