It felt like a typical Sunday at the “diverse, spirit-growing, justice-seeking” church. That is the motto of All Souls Church Unitarian, one of the most respected and most multiracial congregations in a denomination where those two attributes are strongly linked. The program that congregants received that day noted a workshop to support Latin American youth and intensive training on race and ethnicity. There was a request for volunteers to fix up the room named after the late black pastor David Eaton, who led All Souls in the ’70s to being one of the first racially inclusive Unitarian Universalist churches in the country.

I went to a Unitarian church once. One look at the rest of the congregation and I knew this was not my gene pool.

These Churchians need to understand that kowtowing and compromising to the Left will not succeed.
The only solution is to defeat the Left, with no compromises and no negotiations.

Better sport than watching a pro football game. They should sell tickets to their meetings.

The photo of the Unitarian “wedding” is classic, especially for the look on the face of the kid witnessing the madness.

From the title, I thought this was going to be a story about Starbucks.

A church I used to attend is now consuming itself over “white privilege.” Basically, it’s white liberals engaging in self-immolation. Crazy, crazy people.

An interracial homo marriage!
I’m sure these U fools think the big news here is the black-white joining, per the headline. Homo stuff is old hat, huh?

Funny how Unitarian/Universalists call themselves a “faith”.They're just Maoist atheists with a need to get together on a Sunday morning.

Unitarian churches are nothing but glorified social clubs.

It sounds like a leftist cult to me, not a church. It's a pity they don't realize the democrat party is the party of the kkk and white supremacists. They don't know their history.

The Unitarian Church isn’t a “church,” its a fashion accessory.

all because someone wanted a check drawn immediately, when there was no one authorized to draw, or sign, a check?

Be careful making fun of Unitarians.
I did once.
They showed up and burned a giant question mark in my front yard.
