To counter authoritarianism, it’s not enough to raise children who ask bold questions—we must also become and remain adults who keep questioning, learning, and acting with conscience. James Luther Adams stated “A faith that is not the friend of freedom is an enemy of life.” Across the generations, our Unitarian Universalist communities must model free inquiry, moral courage, and compassion as spiritual practices that resist fear, conformity, and control.
