Boy in the Bands
I’m not going to church now (either)
I’m sure it’s not forever, and perhaps not ever for long, but these few months have been pleasant and strangely instructive.
The exact reasons? Well, Ms. Theologian pretty well sums it up. Except that my farmers’ market closes at 1pm.

Welcome
The Boy in the Bands is a record of the passing thoughts of Scott Wells: keeping an eye on the Unitarian Universalist Association, suggesting church administration hacks, and adding his bit for sustainable living in Washington, D.C.

I’ve been thinking perhaps our market closes at noon, but it begins emptying much sooner (of people and produce).
It probably shouldn’t be, but it’s strangely comforting to know that UU’s are just like most religious denominations out there in this aspect. I’ve seen more and more of that sentiment among many folks our age… especially the ones that are unmarried and/or without children (like myself). I don’t count myself in that group at this point, but I’ve definitely been there in the past. (Maybe it’s because my farmers’ market is on Saturday…)
That’s a great post by Ms. Theologian. I especially agree with the “petty dysfunctional shit” line. Those three words can describe a lot of the problems churches face…
