"So far they have obstinately refused to do so. . ."
Then I suppose my advice to you is: wish them well in a different part of the world. If they've brought you to this point, then you should feel justified in moving on with your life and your spiritual journey. Again, feel free to stop by some time to visit a 200-year old Universalist congregation. Peace.

Each UU church is self governing. Your issue is with Rev. Drennan and the Board of the Montreal church. The UUA has no jurisdiction over the affairs of a church with a minister in final fellowship except for serious breaches of ministerial ethics -- which your complaint does not rise to. In fact, The UUA has no jurisdiction over the affairs of any UU church in Canada and has not since the CUC officially seperated from the UUA on 7/1/02.
N'amaste

@bensteinke thanks. Your comment reminded me how completely done I am with Christianity.

I'm trying to find a website with something to read about what Creation Day is all about anyway...help?

I mean, think on it a moment...Drennan, no matter what job he wound up holding, has as much right as anyone to make an ass of himself, yes? So let him have his moment of being an ass and don't give him more power than he deserves, make sense? Has he moved on with his life from the "cult" incident you describe? If he has, then it is he who has you in his power, not the other way around. Think about it...

Robin...a non-theistic/humanist UU told my Pagan boyfriend Joseph that Joe was carrying around useless "baggage" in the form of theistic belief. Joe did deliver a catty but intelligent response and left him to his irritation. Point is, no one is perfect, whether UU or humanist or Christian or Pagan. Why not just give Drennan enough rope to hang himself (similar to the way Joe handled the humanist) if he's the jerk you've indicated he is, and leave it at that? His butt will get bit, right?

Please see my CULT IS A FOUR LETTER WORD video Dale. It was Rev. Ray Drennan of the Unitarian Church of Montreal who treated *me*, someone who was close to being a complete stranger to him because he made virtually no effort to get to know me, with such harshness. I am peacefully protesting against the fact that he and other leaders of the Unitarian Church of Montreal falsely and maliciously labeled an inter-religious celebration of Creation that I had quite successfully organized as a "cult".

But why would you do that to someone? To treat a complete stranger with such harshness. Its no wonder we won't have world peace because people like you find satisfaction in people's pain and suffering.
Let it go, Robin. UUism is a shallow, elitist, pompous, and flighty collective of people without a clear and well-founded sense of direction and purpose. They flaunt their advanced college degrees (from Harvard/Yale/Stanford/Berkeley, of course) and their majors in English and Women's Studies and love to stick their noses in the air and look down upon those who couldn't afford college. Theirs is little more than a social club for bored liberals. Let them go, Robin, and seek CHRIST.

Ben,
You're a genius! U*Us are always trying to formulate a short concise description of *The* Tiny Declining Fringe Religion aka Unitarian*Universalism to share with people who ask what U*Uism is. They call this brief concise description an "elevator speech" because one is supposed to be able to share it with someone within the short time that one might be together with them in an ascending, or in the case of U*Uism. . . descending, elevator. You have provided a wonderful "elevator speech"!

So it is baggagequeen.
PROTESTER is a 9 letter word.
My peaceful public protest would have ended years ago if Montreal Unitarian U*Us and the UUA had responded to my serious complaints about the anti-religious intolerance and bigotry of Rev. Ray Drennan, Frank Greene, and other "fundamentalist atheist" Humanist U*U bigots with justice, equity and compassion. In fact my protest only began after they had ignored my letters of grievance and had expelled me from the "church" for distributing them
