Well, interesting. I would add that Unitarians are not really Christians in the sense that that word is normally understood.

The central teaching of the Unitarian Universalist Church is that there is some sort of vague God, but they specifically reject the doctrine of the Trinity and the divinity of Christ.

Unitarianism is more consistant with Islam—which is outraged by the Christian Trinity—than with Christianity.

Suitable for little Barry Sotoero, the Muslim. His mother had a lifelong love affair with Islam as well as Communism.

You're right. From the account of the memorial service - - -

http://www.starbulletin.com/business/20090106_Isle_church_honored_by_Obamas_visit.html

Obama's half sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, helped plan the service, selecting the spiritual passages that he would deliver, said Young, who "had no idea of Madelyn's idea of God."

In his opening prayer, he read a poem by Raymond J. Baughan, which begins, "We belong to the eternal here and now." It concludes:

Some call it life, some God,

It is called by many names and no name.

There is a oneness to which we belong

And from which we have emerged.
