Faith needs values and beliefs.

What we value:

• Kindness and compassion to guide our actions

• Freedom and independence of thought, belief and expression

• Respect, equality and fairness for all people

• Truth, peace and justice in human affairs

• Reason and integrity in our search for spiritual meaning

• Reverence and care for our Earth and all life

We believe that:

• Spirituality is a way of understanding the world and guides how we live in it

• Wisdom and truth can be found in different religious and cultural traditions, and in non-religious areas of human endeavour such as art, science, literature and philosophy

• Everyone has the right to reach their own conclusions about faith matters

• Our understanding evolves and changes, and new perspectives and insights are to be welcomed

• All life is interdependent and worthy of our respect

• It is important to live our values
