UU

So, We've been attending the Local UU church. It's refreshing in that it is far from the dogmatic, repressive baptist church I grew up in. It's a plethora of intermingled religious/spiritual views. Some of the covenants really fit in with (my idea) of paganism.. Specifically:

The inherent worth and dignity of every person

Justice, equality, and compassion in human relations

Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth

A free and responsible search for truth and meaning

The goal of world community with peace, liberty and justice for all

Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

What's nice is there are different groups within the church. There's a pagan group, humanist group, etc.

We've only talked with one or two people there. The group as a whole seems a bit to themselves, but that is likely just our perspective, we're not exactly social butterflies :)

Anyway, it is a nice change, and really one of only two places around here where you can communicate with like minded folks. There is a pagan meeting there tomorrow night. I think we are planning to go.. kind of looking forward to it.

If nothing else it gives us a chance to keep our minds open and operating outside our normally neutral blah state.
