An extremely liberal, creedless religion based in the Judaeo/Christian heritage.It is made of two movements, Unitarianism and Universalism.
The difference between the two movements ran much more along class and cultural lines than theological ones. The Unitarians originally attracted white collar people: professionals, educators, cultural leaders, etc. The Universalist congregations were comprised mostly of blue collar working class people such as farmers and fishermen.
By the middle of the 20th century, these distinctions had blurred, making a merger both possible and financially necessary for the survival of the two religions. After several years of discussion and negotiation during the 1950s, the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) was formed in 1961.
They believe in the inherent worth and dignity of every person, respect for the interdependant web of existence, use of the democratic process, justice and equality in human relations,Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations,The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all, and the free and responsible search for truth and meaning.

We are NOT a cult.

Get the RA Unit mug.A club with a wide but close nit & extremely loyal fanbase. After a period of problems in the 80's Leeds had been tagged with a hoolliganistic image which the club has worked hard over the years to shed. Recent events such as the stabbings of two Leeds fans when the club played Galatasary as well as the financial problems have only led to the fanbase becoming closer and stronger.
Misunderstood by many (such as the 'definitions' already posted) LUFC fans are the strongest and most passionate in the world. The very fact that the recent relegation from the Premiership resulted in mass celebration only showed the fans/clubs spirit to survive.
