Unitarian Universalism

Under specific pretense, many believe that Islam and Unitarian Universalism are completely different based on they way the religion is structured. Unitarian Universalists believe that each individual is free to have his own beliefs in life. Muslims believe in following the path Allah has put them on, and wish to be guided correctly. In Unitarian Universalism, they believe that after death, no torment will come to them and their souls will be saved. However, they relate on the topics of the morals

For my project I attended a service at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Midland, Texas. I picked this project because attending a Unitarian Universalist Church was always something I was interested in doing.

Socialization takes place every day as we interact with each other. It is “the process by which people learn the characteristics of their group” (Henslin p.71). This sociological concept is easily identifiably in the Unitarian Universalist (UU) Congregation because they use religion as an agent of socialization.

Multiculturalism may be defined as the practice of treating diverse groups of people with different cultural backgrounds and beliefs equally without favor or bias. There are different factors that bring different people together, such as trade, education, or displacement due to political tensions and war.

Wise Blood, by Flannery O’Connor, is an fascinating yet disturbing novel.
