Question: Can Unitarian Universalists Belong to Other Religions?
Answer:

Yes. Unitarian Universalists have no dogma concerning the nature or existence of the divine, and they welcome members of other religions to their services. UUs tend to not believe in a personal god and are more likely to believe in an impersonal divine force, to revere a universal life force, or to not believe in a god at all, but it is by no means a requirement.

Unitarian doctrine is focused on humanist values, supporting equality, social justice, and respect for the wider world, beliefs that are easily compatible with a variety of other religions.
