Lo-Fi Tribe: UU Humanism

Shawn at Lo-Fi Tribe talks about The Faith of a Unitarian Universalist Humanist - a brochure he picked up on the way out of his fellowship meeting. The brochure was written by UU Humanist Sarah Oelberg, former minister of Nora Church Unitarian Universalist in Hanska, Minnesota, and the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Mankato, Minnesota. She says the basic tenets are:
  1. Showing love to all humans is a worthy goal.
  2. Immortality is found in the examples we set and the work we do.
  3. We gain insight from many sources and all cultures, and there are many religious books and teachings that can instruct us about how to live.
  4. We have the power within ourselves to realize the best we are capable of as human beings.
  5. We are responsible for what we do and become; our lives are in our own hands.
