Unitääriksi

Unitääriksi is a Finnish term that refers to a supporter or adherent of Unitarianism. Unitarianism is a religious movement that believes in the unity of God, rejecting the doctrine of the Trinity, which asserts that God is three persons in one being: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Unitarians emphasize reason, individual conscience, and the freedom to interpret religious texts.

Historically, Unitarianism emerged from Protestant Christianity, with early proponents advocating for a monotheistic understanding of God. Key figures and movements associated with its development include Michael Servetus in the 16th century and the later rise of Unitarian churches in Poland, Transylvania, England, and the United States. Modern Unitarianism often encompasses a wide range of beliefs, including theism, deism, humanism, and atheism, with a focus on ethical living, social justice, and spiritual exploration. A person who identifies as unitääriksi would subscribe to these core principles of Unitarian belief.
