Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religious tradition that was formed from the consolidation of two radical faiths rooted in liberal Christianity: the Universalist Church of America, which was founded in 1793, and the American Unitarian Association, founded in 1825.


After consolidating in 1961, these two faiths became the new religion of Unitarian Universalism through the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA).
