Unitarian Universalism: preschool or grad school?

Great recent blog conversations: PeaceBang describes a graduate seminar in which a Baptist suggested that Unitarian Universalism offers training wheels for religious newbies. Jess Cullinan ponders non-theism and the language of reverence. Dan Harper says we're training ministers to serve an ungrowing religion. And, over in the LiveJournal Unitarian Universalist community, bossydude brings up a perennial question for UUs: How political should a congregation get? Good conversation in each place.

Meanwhile, John Cooley has released Version 2 of his excellent UU website aggregator — where you can follow pretty much everything UU that publishes an RSS feed — at UUpdates.net.

Previous: David Neiwert on pseudo fascism.
Next: The stereotype of Yankee parsimony takes a hit.

The link will correctly bring you to Jess, rather than John. It is a good reflection.

Lots o' folks get us mixed up - which is why we intentionally did not name our kids with J names! ;-)

Thanks for the link - I hope folks will weigh in.

I have struggled with critique of Dan Harper’s “One reason liberal religion is dying“ in my “The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated”
