Clergy Code of Conduct

Singularism clergy and clergy students agree to these standards in our classes, cohorts and community spaces, and in their service to others.

1. Practice not giving offense

We try, in good faith, not to offend anyone, in what we say and in how we say it.

2. When offended, look at yourself first

When something offends you, start by asking what it reveals about you. Humility is part of our practice, and it's what we look for in our clergy.

3. Respect every InnerVerse

Singularism is non-exclusive. Never pressure anyone to adopt your beliefs, or ours. Each person is the author of their own InnerVerse.

4. This is not a dating arena

Our classes, cohorts, ceremonies and community are not a place to seek romantic or sexual relationships. Never pursue a romantic or sexual relationship with anyone you serve as clergy.

5. No cult-like behavior

No one, including Singularism's leaders, is owed unquestioning loyalty. Encourage independent thought. Never isolate people from their families or friends, or ask them for secrecy or money for yourself.

6. Classroom and cohort conduct

Be present and respectful in classes and cohorts. What others share in class stays in class.

7. Honesty about your role

Represent your training and status truthfully. Don't present yourself as ordained Singularism clergy until you are.

Violations may lead to removal from a course, a cohort or the clergy track, at Singularism's discretion.
