Conflicting opinions have been voiced as to his religion. The Unitarian Universalist Church, citing "Unitarianism in America" from 1902, claim him as their own. Another source, the 1856 biography "The American Statesman: The Life and Character of Daniel Webster", proclaims him an avowed orthodox Trinitarian, baptized and raised in an Orthodox Congregational Church, and who died a member of the Episcopal Church. Remini writes that, though Webster occasionally attended other churches, he remained closely affiliated with the Congregational church throughout his life. In an 1807 letter to a Congregational pastor, Webster wrote, "I believe in the utter inability of any human being to work out his own Salvation, without the constant aids of the spirit of all grace. ... Although I have great respect for some other forms of worship, I believe the Congregational mode, on the whole, to be preferable to any other."
