A number of noted people have considered themselves Unitarians, Universalists, and following the merger of these denominations in the US and Canada in 1961, Unitarian Universalists. Additionally, there are persons who, because of their writings or reputation, are considered to have held Unitarian or Universalist beliefs. Individuals who held unitarian (nontrinitarian) beliefs but were not affiliated with Unitarian organizations are often referred to as "small 'u'" unitarians. The same principle can be applied to those who believed in universal salvation but were not members of Universalist organizations. This article, therefore, makes the distinction between capitalized "Unitarians" and "Universalists" and lowercase "unitarians" and "universalists". Historic Unitarianism believed in the oneness of God as opposed to traditional Christian belief in the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). ...
Universalism refers to concepts and issues which are said to be universal in appealâi. ...
A religious denomination, (also simply denomination) is a large, long-established subgroup within a religion that has been in existence for many years. ...

Nontrinitarianism or antitrinitarianism is the doctrinal description applied to rejection of the Trinitarian doctrine that God subsists as three distinct persons in the Holy Trinity. ...
In comparative religion, a universalist religion is one that holds itself true for all people; it thus allows all to join, regardless of ethnicity. ...
It should be noted that the Unitarians and Universalists are groups that existed long before the creation of Unitarian Universalism. Historic Unitarianism believed in the oneness of God as opposed to traditional Christian belief in the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). ...
Universalism refers to concepts and issues which are said to be universal in appealâi. ...
The flaming chalice is the universally recognized symbol for Unitarian Universalism. ...
In particular it must be noted that prominent Unitarians from the American colonial and early national eras would almost certainly not have subscribed to Universalist tenants; these people were essentially radical Protestant Christians. Additionally, the merger did not eliminate divergent Unitarian and Universalist congregations, especially outside the US. Even in the US there are congregations which are strictly Unitarian or Universalist (though with only a few exceptions, are all part of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA)); even those which maintain dual affiliation (e.g. Unitarian and Quaker). Transcendentalism was a movement that diverged from contemporary American Unitarianism but has been embraced by later Unitarians and Unitarian Universalists. Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), in full the Unitarian Universalist Association of Congregations in North America, is a liberal religious denomination of Unitarian Universalist congregations formed by the consolidation in 1961 of the American Unitarian Association and the Universalist Church in America. ...
