International Peace and Conflict

While Unitarian Universalism promotes peace and has opposed various wars for various reasons, we have never been a strictly pacifist movement. However, our faith calls upon us to continually search for the strength and vision to end the cycles of violence. While our principles call upon us to affirm and promote the goal of world community with peace, liberty and justice for all, our collective conscious is grounded in the reality that we are far from achieving that goal. In this world of brokenness, filled with violence, oppression, and injustice, we collectively committed to making peace and justice real. Making peace and confronting injustice are callings without end but with many means. As Unitarian Universalists taking up that calling, may our means be true to our conscious, may they also be strong and justice seeking, and if we err, may we err on the side of love.
