Before 1959 there were Unitarians and Universalists, two separate religious organizations. Unitarians believed:
There was only one God
The idea of the trinity meaning three manifestations of as God the father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit was absolute truth.
All people should decide this for themselves
Universalists believed:
We are all God’s creatures
Each person has a soul
If you live by practicing the “golden rule” each person has the right to eternal salvation or entering heaven.
