[religion-ish] Lately, I've been considering looking into local Unitarian Universalist churches. I was raised going to them, and I think it's a political action thing as much as anything else. But there are about 20 on this list. How to choose?
But for tomorrow, on the West Seattle website: Today we will celebrate the most important day in the Christian calendar and explore its meaning to us as skeptics and rationalists. Hint: it’s a metaphor.
I was going to say some archive their sermons or even have podcast versions of them to listen to. That's how I figured it out (although the one I really liked was way too far away)
I've always looked at them and wished there was one close enough for me to give a shot... but then, I'm no doubt too far off the religious spectrum even for them at this point
well, that's the thing... I've slipped past agnostic into full on atheist the last decade or so. Am not spiritual at all. It just... would be nice to have a built in social group of humanists >.>
it's one of the things I always envied religious people--church choirs, the only really good way to be musical once you don't have a school choir to sing in any more if you're not a 'band' kind of person
heh, those were amusingly the 2 big selling points for middlespawn in going to a Jesuit college, even though she's an atheist--they're huge on social justice and they're explicitly a humanist institution
but somewhere along the way, the belief in a God who loves unconditionally, and universal salvation, meant they moved away from even requiring a belief in God
Today we will celebrate the most important day in the Christian calendar and explore its meaning to us as skeptics and rationalists. Hint: it’s a metaphor.
