Really sums up what I've also felt about religion....it's a personal choice.

I was raised as a Catholic my whole life. This year, I made a decision to check out All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church in NYC next Sunday. Wish me luck! :)

best introduction to Unitarian Universalism on the net and only 102,000 hits? we can do better than this!!

I was raised Catholic, but after 27 years in the military and living all over the world, it was hard to see Christianity as the sole path to eternity. I have known people of all faiths and consider myself spiritual. After checking out the UUA website, I realized that this was an organization I could be part of that shares the same beliefs as me. Primarily, that not one religion is right. That a higher power wouldn't doom people who don't believe the right thing to hell. UUA s for everyone!

I hear what you're saying. Sunday services are not always my favorite part of being a UU, either. There's often a division between worship/congregational activities, which serve the members' personal spiritual needs and questions, and the work of living out our values through activism in our communities and the world. In other words, there tends to be more emphasis on "nurture your spirit" and a bit less on "help heal our world," when the two should really be one and the same.

I'm checking out a UU church for the first time today.

I find this expression of tolerance harmony very moving.
Good on you people.
As somewhat of an atheist, in the beginning I was really weary of how often UUs speak of their "faith", because I don't really think faith - believing in something without evidence - is really a virtue. But after visiting a UU church I learned that most UUs have faith, not in creeds, but in deeds. Meaning they believe in being faithful to others and to their community, which I think is really beautiful!
this looks like a really positive religion
