Do Unitarians consider themselves to be Christian?
Actually, some do and some do not. As you can see in the answer to “What Unitarians Believe?” we are much more open to a diversity of theological perspectives than the typical Christian church. Nevertheless, Unitarianism grew out of the Protestant Reformation in 16th century Europe. At that time Unitarian thinkers began to question the authority of creeds and dogmas. In so doing, they strived to follow the example of Jesus rather than to keep to the various belief structures that had been created by men long after his death. What they aimed to do was to follow the religion of Jesus rather than the religion about Jesus.
