FliegendeWolf 0 #2 December 4, 2003 Hi clouddancers, I went to a UU church for a little bit, and I liked their philosophy of things. I did, however, feel that in their attempt to be Universal, they whitewashed God out of the whole picture, which is why I stopped going.A One that Isn't Cold is Scarcely a One at All Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unstable 8 #3 December 4, 2003 Unitarian Universalist? Could you explain that for me?=========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 558 #4 December 4, 2003 Yes. The late Larry Yohn introduced me to the Unitarian Universalist congregation of Riverside, California (near Perris Valley) six years ago, but lately I have been hanging out with the Beacon Unitarian Fellowship of Coquitlam, BC (near Vancouver, er Pitt Meadows DZ).

ripper0289 0 #9 December 5, 2003 I have a 100% chance of being a Mahayana Buddhist, which is ok by me, Hinduism is also a 100% match, but Mahayana Buddhism has Vajrayana(tantric) sects. (tantric sects, tantric sex, woo hoo! I made a funny) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clouddancerss 0 #10 December 5, 2003 I definitely consider myself Buddhist as well, but then I feel Buddhism is more a lifestyle than a religion anyway. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zenister 0 #11 December 5, 2003 Zen/Dao is a lifestyle...Buddhism is most definately a religion...the difference is dogma.____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shotgun 1 #17 January 5, 2004 Just thought I'd bump this thread because I am interested in the same question (Any Unitarian Universalists out there?)... I am particularly interested in talking to anyone who attends a UU church in the Southern California area (I see Rob mentioned the one in Riverside, but is no longer in this area), but I would be interested in chatting with UU's in any other location as well. Feel free to PM me... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
