Do you know about Unitarian Universalism? If so, what do you think about it?

The cute cuddly furball
I didn't so I ask Grok. It's the spiritual equivalent of showing up to a potluck with a dish that says "bring your own belief system" — and then everyone argues for 45 minutes about whether the potluck itself is oppressive to introverts.

Ok that’s kind of funny. It’s more nuanced than that but it’s funny.

It is where I go. And nobody's arguing about Jack bananas. People respect, one another's ideas and believe systems. And you can get support no matter who you are and what you believe. There's a lot of fellowship, camaraderie, singing, talk about famous ideal, lists, and food!

And they have movie night, book clubs, all kinds of different things. You can be the most about Christian, or an agnostic, and people treat you with the same respect.

They don’t argue where I go either, very often. I’ve heard that when UU’s argue, it can be intense though. There’s a group at my UU that people can attend if they want to argue about stuff. They’ve been very supportive and accommodating for me.

You can be a Muslim, green witch, Druid, Wicken, or catholic, it doesn't matter, you are welcome and accepted.

Dan, do you mind if I ask why you no longer are UU? Not to try to change your mind, just curious.

I don't go to church regularly. I have my own spiritual path I follow. But when I want to commune with others, I do go to our universal Unitarian church. So, Stephen King, the great writer, his daughter Naomi is a reverend in the universal Unitarian church.

I haven’t been going lately either due to scheduling conflicts and stuff. But the community there is great. One of the first places I’ve ever gone where sighted people didn’t treat me differently just because I can’t see. Also I did hear that about Stephen king’s daughter, I thought that was so interesting!
