I’ve learnt about the UU not that long ago and I’m getting into with much fondness. To me it’s one of the only paths if you’re a Christian-based perennialist who believes in the existence of God and follows the teachings of the prophet Jesus but rejects the bible. Basically it’s only Unitarians or non-denominational Chrisians.
Sure, I think UU basically defaults to being atheist, but it very much accepts any and all beliefs as long as they’re not harmful.
I find it very sweet because leftist circles usually tend to be unfriendly towards religious people. Basically it’s like being a right-wing homosexual - at best you’ll be met with judgemental acceptance; ostracization at worst.

I feel you. I mean Paulus? Once you realize what he was about it’s not hard to see the rest of the whole book in a similar light. Not to mention the “holy” people who decided what went in it at all.
I once admitted that much to some Jehovah’s Witnesses that came to my door. They completely misunderstood my statement, thought they had their hooks in me. They were relentless and started showing up much more often. Lesson learned: never engage with them.

It’s funny because in Australia it’s even non-religious (well the churches I’ve heard of).
That’s how based the UU is.
All be welcome, yo.
Seek the truth and serve humanity.
