1. What Is Unitarianism? CARM
   Offers the opinion that Unitarian universalists use many biblical concepts and terms but with nonbiblical meanings and that the religion is not Christian.  
   http://www.carm.org/uni/unitarianism.htm
   
   Extractions: Unitarianism is the belief that God exists in one person, not three. It is a denial of the doctrine of the Trinity as well as the full divinity of Jesus. Therefore, it is not Christian. There are several groups that fall under this umbrella: Jehovah's Witnesses, Christadelphianism, The Way International, etc. Another term for this type of belief is called monarchianism. In the context of universalism, the Unitarianism discussed here is that belief that denies the Trinity, the deity of Christ, the personhood of the Holy Spirit, eternal punishment, and the vicarious atonement of Jesus. Unitarian universalists use many biblical concepts and terms but with non-biblical meanings. Unitarianism is not Christian.

2. Lene Shoemaker: A Short Overview Of Unitarianism In Denmark
   A history of Unitarinism in Denmark.  
   http://home10.inet.tele.dk/unitar/inetuk.htm
   
   Extractions: Unitarianism came to Norway in the late 1800's via Kristofer Janson who had been educated as a Unitarian minister in USA. The Norwegian Composer Edward Grieg became involved in Unitarianism, along with his Danish wife Nina. It was through influences from both Norway and England that Unitarianism final made it to Denmark. Nina Grieg moved back to Copenhagen after her husbands death. She was a famous Concert Pianist, and raised a good deal of money for our church, and donated most of the money for the organ in our beautiful church building, which was completed in 1927. Unitarianism died out in Norway, most likely because of the rapid growth of Humanism in that country. However, it flourished in Denmark where it was at first hoped that the State Church would become liberal enough to encompass Unitarianism. At one point there were three congregations in Denmark. Today the one in Copenhagen is the only one left, and there are no congregations in either Norway or Sweden, but recently one has formed in Finland. Our first Minister was Uffe Birkedal, who was a liberal theologian educated at the University of Copenhagen, where the emphasis was to educate Ministers for the Danish Lutheran State Church. At this time our Church was clearly a very liberal Christian Church.

   http://www.slc.bc.ca/mac/uni.htm
   
   Extractions: J. McRee (Mac) Elrod The word "Unitarian" historically refers to the oneness of God as opposed to the Trinity of God. The word Trinity is not in the Bible, nor Unitarians hold, is the concept. The naming of Father Son and Holy Spirit hardly occurs, except as a echo of a baptismal formula. The doctrine dates from the early Middle Ages, as an effort to reconcile Jewish theology with Greek philosophy, and was adopted as doctrine at the Council of Nicea in 325 AD at the behest of Constantine. The leader of the Trinitarian position was St. Nicholas (later known as Santa Claus), who later actively persecuted Unitarians. At that time the Unitarian position was called "Arianism" for its leader Arius of Alexandria. He and the idea were declared heretic, and was crushed except for a few remote Germanic tribes. With the invention of the printing press in the 1450's, and the wide reading of the Bible, people discovered that the Trinity was not there, and Unitarians (often called Arians) sprang up all over Europe like crocus. In most places they were killed. Calvin burned the best known Renaissance Unitarian theologian, the Spaniard Servetus, in Geneva, October 27th, 1553. He was burned with a slow fire, taking half an hour to kill him, with his books and writings strapped to him. Earlier he had been burned in effigy by Catholics. (Servetus was also a doctor, and had discovered the pulmonary circulation of the blood.) Many early Unitarians tended to be scientists or doctors, and serving the royal family sometimes led to acceptance. Krakow (the early capital of Poland), became one of the few places Unitarians were allowed to live without persecution. They formed a convocation in 1565. After the Counter Reformation began to gain strength, and they were less welcome in Krakow, they gathered from all over Europe in a town they settled near Krakow (Rakow), establishing a university and printing press, under the leadership of the Italian theologian Socinus.

   Extractions: Unitarians began as dissenters, believing that God was One, not Three.  They have always held that Jesus Christ was a man and though he undoubtedly was exceptional, he was not the God-made-man of most Christian belief.  Unitarians believe that  it is of the utmost importance to try to lead a moral life based on Christian principles.  They do not, however adhere to the Fundamentalists' views on the infallability of the Bible.    Often allied to the Unitarians (specially in the United States) are the Universalists.  They are similar in their approach to religion although the basis of Universalism is the notion that ALL human beings were loved by God and that therefore they could all get to heaven - even if they had never heard of Christianity.  Most Unitarian churches and fellowships in the U.S. are called Unitarian Universalist.  In the U.K. the Unitarian church feels that it already embraces Universalist beliefs.  Here in Australia and New Zealand, some fellowships include the word Universalist and some do not.  This seems to relate to whether the founding members were American or English!

8. CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Socinianism
   Catholic Encyclopedia article on this body of doctrine held by one of the Antitrinitarian sects that gave rise to unitarianism.  
   http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14113a.htm
   
   Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... S > Socinianism A B C D ... CICDC - Home of the Catholic Lifetime Reading Plan The body of doctrine held by one of the numerous Antitrinitarian sects to which the Reformation gave birth. The Socinians derive their name from two natives of Siena, Lelio Sozzini (1525-62) and his nephew Fausto Sozzini (1539-1604). The surname is variously given, but its Latin form, Socinus, is that currently used. It is to Fausto, or Faustus Socinus, that the sect owes its individuality, but it arose before he came into contact with it. In 1546 a secret society held meetings at Vicenza in the Diocese of Venice to discuss, among other points, the doctrine of the Trinity. Among the members of this society were Blandrata, a well-known physician, Alciatus, Gentilis, and Lelio, or Laelius Socinus. The last-named, a priest of Siena, was the intimate friend of Bullinger, Calvin , and Melanchthon. The object of the society was the advocacy not precisely of what were afterwards known as Socinian principles, but of Antitrinitarianism. The Nominalists, represented by Abelard, were the real progenitors of the Antitrinitarians of the Reformation period, but while many of the Nominalists ultimately became Tritheists, the term Antitrinitarian means expressly one who denies the distinction of persons in the Godhead. The Antitrinitarians are thus the later representatives of the Sabellians, Macedonians, and

    Extractions: and American Unitarianism In Democracy In America and in his journals and letters Tocqueville noted the Americans' inclination toward Deism. He saw Unitarianism as the last bridge between Christianity and natural religion. In his Essay on American Government and Religion , included in Tocqueville and Beaumont In America , Tocqueville wrote, "On the confines of Protestantism is a sect which is Christian only in name, the Unitarians . ... They are pure Deists. They speak of the Bible because they do not wish to shock public opinion, still entirely Christian , too deeply. ... It's evident that the Protestants whose minds are cold and logical, the argumentative classes, the men whose habits are intellectual and scientific, are grasping the occasion to embrace and entirely philosophic faith which allows them to make almost public profession of pure Deism." In his interview with John Quincy Adams, Tocqueville asked, "do you not see in the Unitarianism of this country the last link that separates Christianity from natural religion?" That Tocqueville saw Unitarianism as an intellectual and religious curiosity is clear. Equally clear is that to understand Unitarian Christianity as it existed in the United States in 1831, he had to meet one man: William Ellery Channing.

11. Northern Theological Errors
    Essay identifying unitarianism as a hideous heresy and as a key cause for the War Between the States.  
    http://www.mindspring.com/~dennisw/articles/theocon/part4.htm
    
    Extractions: III Northern Theological Errors. At the time of the War Between the States, the Southern people were a Christian people. We had faults and sins which were widely practiced and needed vast improvement, but all things considered, our forefathers were a Christian people. General Jackson, who was as righteous a man as ever walked on Southern soil, made statements to this effect, As the War continued, Jackson called for more holiness from both people and government. In 1865 the time for Southern independence had not yet dawned. Perhaps 1995 will be a better year. We should allow General Jackson's words to burn deeply into our hearts, "Let our Government acknowledge the God of the Bible as its God, and we may expect soon to be a happy and independent people." This should become the slogan of the South.

    Extractions: By William Ellery Channing Delivered at the Ordination of Rev. Jared Sparks in The First Independent Church of Baltimore on May 5, 1819. 1 Thes. v. 21: "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." There are two natural divisions under which my thoughts will be arranged. I shall endeavour to unfold, 1st, The principles which we adopt in interpreting the Scriptures. And 2dly, Some of the doctrines, which the Scriptures, so interpreted, seem to us clearly to express. I. We regard the Scriptures as the records of God's successive revelations to mankind, and particularly of the last and most perfect revelation of his will by Jesus Christ. Whatever doctrines seem to us to be clearly taught in the Scriptures; we receive without reserve or exception. We do not, however, attach equal importance to all the books in this collection. Our religion, we believe, lies chiefly in the New Testament. The dispensation of Moses, compared with that of Jesus, we consider as adapted to the childhood of the human race, a preparation for a nobler system, and chiefly useful now as serving to confirm and illustrate the Christian Scriptures. Jesus Christ is the only master of Christians, and whatever he taught, either during his personal ministry, or by his inspired Apostles, we regard as of divine authority, and profess to make the rule of our lives. This authority, which we give to the Scriptures, is a reason, we conceive, for studying them with peculiar care, and for inquiring anxiously into the principles of interpretation, by which their true meaning may be ascertained. The principles adopted by the class of Christians in whose name I speak, need to be explained, because they are often misunderstood. We are particularly accused of making an unwarrantable use of reason in the interpretation of Scripture. We are said to exalt reason above revelation, to prefer our own wisdom to God's. Loose and undefined charges of this kind are circulated so freely, that we think it due to ourselves, and to the cause of truth, to express our views with some particularity.

    Extractions: Promoting the American Unitarian Tradition Back to the Deism page The Connection of Deism to American Unitarianism Nathan De May Faith, freedom, reason – the motto of the AUC defines the core values of American Unitarianism. Those same values can be found in a religious philosophy that shares much in common with American Unitarianism – Deism. What is Deism? The word Deism is derived from the Latin word for God, Deus . Simply defined, Deism is the belief in God based on the use of reason and the observation of the natural world, as opposed to belief in God based on supernatural revelation. Generally speaking, Deists: Believe that God is Uni-personal God (no Trinity). Reject the divinity or deity of Jesus. Reject the validity of any scripture based solely on its status as "revealed." Believe that the magnificence and natural order of the Universe is testament enough to the existence of the Creator.
