This is one I just found out about.
Unitarian Universalists Association, a research paper written for a class at Southwest Bible College in March of 2003, written by Chris Wotherspoon, who is now assistant pastor at Moreno Christian Fellowship in Moreno Valley, CA.
This is a group representing 1,000 liberal congregations in North America. It is the American Branch of a group which had its origins in Poland in the 1770s, a group which believed that a loving God wouldn’t send anyone to Hell, thus salvation is universal.
Today, this group is very much Anti-Trinitarian. Their concept of God encompasses a plethora of ideas, but the Bible is not held as an infallible guide for one’s life. Their outward claims support a reverence for life, (although for some reason they find it correct to support abortion) support for love of truth, the holy or the gracious.
Wotherspoon contends that it may be easier to win a Muslim to Jesus Christ than a UU, for the simple reason that at least the Muslims believe in one true God. UU’s are so different that it is difficult to employ one approach
