The context provides a communicative framework which generates complex discourse that is bound by a diversified agreement of unity worthy of a detailed study. This project will examine the discursive framework of the church in an attempt to understand how members' lives are affected by identifying with the unified diversity. There are a couple of general questions to guide the nature of the research. First, how do the Unitarian Universalists share a sense of reality? In other words. How do the members of this particular Unitarian Universalist Church interactively create a sense of we-ness? Or how do they come together to experience a religious environment? The second question to guide the research is, how is conflict managed within this group of diversity?application/pdfengReligionCommunication in organizationsEthnomethodologyPhilosophy and religionUnitarian Universalist AssociationThesis
