The Affirmations
Toward a Religion of Life
Affirmation
Love is the doctrine of this church;
The quest of truth is its sacrament; And service is its prayer.
To dwell together in peace; To seek knowledge in freedom;
To serve mankind in fellowship; To the end that all souls shall grow into
harmony with the Divine,
Thus do we covenant with each other and with God.
Affirmation
We believe In the authority of evidence:
In the supremacy of intelligence:
In the leadership of competence:
In the validity of freedom:
In the goal of commonweal.
