UU Salad Bar

[Antiochian]

Well, in the one I went to in Columbus sometimes, not near as often as say the Bible or Asian scriptures.

It was always heartwarming to have someone come up to me and greet me with "assalamu alaykum" though.



I'm Sufi but still Sunni (Hanafi). You have to be some flavour of "traditional" (Sunni/Shia and whatever school in that you follow) Islam to be Sufi.

I suppose the Bible's easy to quote from because of its accessability and people's general familiarity with it, but I'd like to see UU churches strive to equally utilize the wisdom of all scriptures, maybe including the Book of Mormon, the Gnostic gospels, the Quran, and Neopagan/Indigenous writings. It's awesome to see the diversity represented in this thread!

I think our church does a decent job balancing sourcing from the New Testament, Old Testament, Qur'an, and Buddhist sources. I'd like to see a bit more presented from native American sources, but I can't complain about the diversity represented in the wisdom presented at our church.

Deist, as most here know.
After a month and a half of attending, and thoroughly enjoying, the local UU, I have added UU to my "religion"

Christian, because I was raised Catholic and it did have its influences on me.

Neopaganism, because I find the teachings on interdependence of all things and the incorporation of beliefs into all aspects of life match what I have believed all along.

When people ask, though, I gladly tell them I am UU.
