    Union Sunday

    Certainly, I will let you know how the sermon goes. I imagine reading that volume was a lot of fun. :) I agree that UU libraries can sometimes focus more on fiction or popular nonfiction to the exclusion of other subjects. Our library has only a small selection of Beacon Press books, or books...

    Union Sunday

    I would love to attend a Religious Education class which discussed and learned about the rich UU history, HerDotness. I love reading and studying about UU history on my own, but I am surprised by how few people know about the UU legacy. Kudos to you for giving a sermon on Channing. :) (The...

    Union Sunday

    Ah I see, well then perhaps it's just something important in Baltimore that honors the Baltimore sermon and unites the churches around here in remembrance of Channing's sermon which united Unitarians. This is the sermon description from the First Unitarian Church of Baltimore: Guest...

    Union Sunday

    Hi everyone. :) I have a question I hope you can help me with. Unfortunately last year I was unable to go to Union Sunday which is this Sunday. I currently live in Baltimore, Maryland and this weekend on Sunday all the UU churches in the area are headed downtown to one service for Union Sunday...

    Online Communities

    Obviously this forum is a great resource, but a quick look at the most recent posts show that people here are not super active. I am also looking for more than a discussion board, if that makes sense. :)

    Online Communities

    Hi everyone. :) I have been researching my pagan beliefs for a while, and I have been researching online / lurking around these boards ;p. I would like to learn more about paganism, and explore some pagan resources. I have been searching for online communities where I can do this and while I...

    Chalica

    Hi everyone. I hope you are all having a great day! I am celebrating Chalica this week and I just wanted to encourage others to participate if they are also interested. I only heard/learned of Chalica yesterday so I thought that other people might not know either. :D Here is a link: www ...

    Red-letter christians: Neo-marxism in the church?

    Wow, that is some article. Though I do have to say that I find the term 'red letter' Christians interesting. I have always found it problematic that some Christians appear to pick and choose what they want to believe, creating the image of a peaceful Jesus and interpreting the meaning of the...

    Searching for community and the UU 'bible'...

    Maybe it is...I read it back when I was first contemplating UU, and was intrigued by some of it. Maybe it deserves a new look.

    Searching for community and the UU 'bible'...

    Hi applewuud, thanks for this comment. I actually considered buying this book, before I came to my senses and checked it out from the library. :p I found it interesting, but not my cup of tea. I have concluded that what I'm looking for doesn't exist....When I imagine the sort of book I...

    Searching for community and the UU 'bible'...

    Hi Trey of Diamonds. Thank you for the suggestion. I actually have visited the Second Life UU churches. Granted it was during the week and nobody was there. :D I find that Second Life in most other ways is a waste of my time, but perhaps I will check out a service. Thanks again!

    Searching for community and the UU 'bible'...

    applewuud, I have added Huxley's book to my reading list, : ). Based on the number of people who have recommended "Singing the Living Tradition' I believe I may buy it, or at least take a closer (and less impatient) view of it on google books. : ) As far as Jefferson's Bible, I have seen it...

    Searching for community and the UU 'bible'...

    Hi Storm, thanks for replying. :D If you don't mind me asking... why are you a *former* neopagan? Also, what does a rogue panentheist mean? I would definitely be interested in hearing any suggestions or advice you might have in exploring paganism. Thanks again. :D

    Searching for community and the UU 'bible'...

    I will definitely add these authors to my reading list. I have always been fond of Emerson, and Shakespeare, though as a medievalist I don't think I will be able to bring myself to willingly peruse Augustine right now. ;p Wow, that's a big question. : ) I'm not sure what sort of spiritual...
