Precept of Unitarian Universalism
Honor the seven principles.
From the inherent worth of every person to the interdependent web of existence: a covenant of principles rather than beliefs — conduct is the creed.
Understanding it — context, not catechism: how this passage is held
The seven principles run from the inherent worth and dignity of every person to respect for the interdependent web of existence, and they are affirmations of how to act rather than statements about what is true. Congregations periodically revise them — a process that is itself the doctrine at work — and the most recent revision, adding a commitment on justice and equity, was contested at length within the association.
