	Unitarian Church -Dublin
		Churches had to meet the challenge of science and this led to a desire to return to a style that was seen as uncorrupted by modern civilisation.
		The design brilliantly fulfils the requirement that in a non-conformist church the emphasis should be on the pulpit, unlike in established denominations where the focus is on the communion table or altar.
		The exterior fabric of the church has taken a battering over the years from the weather and pollution caused by traffic and smoke, and it can be difficult with the deterioration to see the varying textures and colours of the rock-faced granite, ash-layered Irish limestone and moulded and decorated Bath stone.

	Unitarian history - South Africa
		The Unitarian movement in South Africa was founded in 1867 by the Reverend Dawid Faure, member of a well-known Cape family.
		From 1867 to 1890 the fledgling church, known as the Free Protestant Church, rented premises in a commercial building in Cape Town, and in 1890 a warehouse in the city was purchased and converted into the present church.
		Unitarianism in South Africa has a fascinating history and this is recorded in the doctoral thesis of Rev Eric Heller-Wagner, an American Unitarian Universalist, now minister in Sydney, Australia, who visited Cape Town in the early 1990s in order to complete his doctorate at the University of Stellenbosch.

	Unitarianism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Unitarians are characterized by some as being identified through history as free thinkers and dissenters, evolving their beliefs in the direction of rationalism and humanism.
		In 1564 Dávid was elected by the Calvinists as "bishop of the Hungarian churches in Transylvania," and appointed court preacher to John Sigismund, prince of Transylvania.
		Unitarianism in the United States followed essentially the same development as in England, and passed through the stages of Arminianism, Arianism, anti-tritheism, to rationalism and a modernism based on a large-minded acceptance of the results of the comparative study of all religions.

	UUA: About Unitarian Universalism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		With its historical roots in the Jewish and Christian traditions, Unitarian Universalism is a liberal religion -- that is, a religion that keeps an open mind to the religious questions people have struggled with in all times and places.
		We believe that personal experience, conscience and reason should be the final authorities in religion, and that in the end religious authority lies not in a book or person or institution, but in ourselves.
		Worship is held regularly, the insights of the past and the present are shared with those who will create the future, service to the community is undertaken, and friendships are made.
