Religions of the World

Religion.

Is there anything in the history of the human race that has served to both unite and divide us as well as this seemingly-omnipotent concept? What began as a collection of mythological and spiritual beliefs amongst groups of pre-modern man has developed into the colossal mega-religions that are known and recognized throughout the world today. It is not a coincidence that the Christian cross and the Islamic star and crescent are some of the most-recognized symbols in the world; religion is, simply put, an inseparable part of humanity.

The Universal Life Church Monastery is not like conventional religious organizations, nor even many other online ministries. We refuse to smother our ministers with a prescribed set of religious beliefs, and abhor the thought of shoving dated dogma down their throats.

Instead, the ULC Monastery takes a progressive view on religion. "We are all children of the same universe", and every religion can and must have equal bearing. It is the responsibility of every ULC Monastery minister to develop their spirituality by learning about many religious beliefs, not just a single narrow one.

This section of ULC.org's Training and Education portal was built for this purpose. Please use the articles provided in this section to educate yourself about the beliefs of others so that your own spirituality can thrive and mature.
