As far as I can tell, 100% of Unitarian Universalists will, in time, stop being Unitarian Universalists. Death does that.
Whether we experience the Beatific Vision, are reincarnated, subsume into the Monad or simple stop being we share a common experience after death. I’ve never heard anyone suggest we will carry on as a sect (and […]
Thanks to Jaume for pointing out that Peter Morales, one of two declared candidates for the presidency of the Unitarian Universalist Association, now has a campaign site up. When Chris Walton (Philocrites) noted that Morales and Laurel Hallman were running, only she had a site.
I am not currently supporting either candidate.
I’ve got little to add to the Unitarian Universalist Ministers Association decision to move their before-General-Assembly meetings to a location outside the port security area, and thus avoiding the brouhaha around an ID check for General Assembly proper. The UUMA decision seems right, the tone of the letter is appropriate and avoids it the […]
Fans of The Simpsons will get that title.
PeaceBang opined that First Parish, YouTube from yesterday’s post might be First Religious Society, Carlisle, Massachusetts, but the video meetinghouse is missing Carlisle’s distintive clock. Not that I knew that from sight; instead, I went to UUA.org to get a link to FRC Carlisle’s Web site.
But what […]
If you’ve not read Dan Harper’s blog or Chutney’s blog lately, you really ought to see (respectively) “Problem solved, or denominational politics” and “Manufactured dissent and fake authenticity.”
Coincidentally, I’ve decided to let the GA 2008 “scandal” drop — the signal-to-noise ratio has been too poor to continue. Comment, if you like.
Oh dear, I really did intend on going to the Unitarian Universalist Assembly General Assembly (GA) last year. I haven’t been to one since 2003 and, with the new church plant very slowly developing, I though it would be a good place to meet and consult. But perhaps not.
Last year, before [...]
While I still think the Time magazine campaign is a costly mistake, I am heartened to see evidence (among the ads at PeaceBang) that the Unitarian Universalist Association is using Google ads, which would have been my first choice. That ad points to the special welcome page the UUA has set up.
So I wondered, what […]
Thanks for those who wrote me to say my quotation in the Religion News Service article by Shona Crabtree about the current Unitarian Universalist Association ad campaign with Time Magazine and time.com.
As some of you might guess, I’m not all sweetness and light and affirmation about that dreadful hybrid of editorial content and advertising known […]
The Revival conference of the Unitarian Universalist Christian Fellowship begins tonight outside Cleveland, Ohio.
Is anyone blogging from it?
Chris Walton (Philocrites) brings to our attention the new hymnal Harvard University’s Memorial Church will dedicate tomorrow. This is that hymnal’s fourth edition; the third edition coming from 1964. Learning its lineage, I made a quick Google search and uncovered the first and second editions dating to 1895 and 1907 respectively. These may be downloaded […]
