Unitarian Universalist theology has emerged from a long tradition of heretical beliefs – beliefs that do not adhere to the theology and dogma of established religion of the time. This class will be a lively look at the teachings of Arius, Origen, Michael Servetus, John Murray, and others, to see what they believed, why their theologies were adamantly opposed by the predominant religion, and how their teachings became the foundations for Unitarianism and Universalism.
Although not required for the class, David Bumbaugh’s Unitarian Universalism: a Narrative History (Meadville Lombard Press, 2000) is highly recommended as a very readable history of Unitarian Universalism from its early beginnings to the present time.
The Reverend Carol McKinley received her Master of Divinity from Seattle University’s School of Theology and Ministry. She was ordained in April 2006 by the OUUC, and is affiliated with this congregation as a UU community minister. She is co-coordinator of Washington Unitarian Universalist Voices for Justice, a statewide legislative advocacy network.
