A lesbian minister in Nantucket, Massachusetts, is canceling her church’s annual Fourth of July celebrations in an act of political protest apparently against the country’s — as well as her own congregation’s — “whiteness.”
Rev. Erin Splaine announced to her community Thursday that the Second Congregational Meeting House Society, Unitarian Universalist church would be canceling its customary July 4th celebrations, which include a public reading of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights.
“We came to this decision in large measure because of the recent gutting of the 1965 Voting Rights Act by the Supreme Court,” Splaine wrote in a letter to the Nantucket Current. She was referring to the 2026 Louisiana v. Callais case that declared racial gerrymandering unconstitutional.
Slaine claimed that white people experience the “Rights and Privileges” enshrined in the founding documents in a manner “tragically, often violently, and unequally applied to fellow citizens who are not white.”
Such injustice, Slaine argued, means celebrating America’s history “without context … perpetuates the harm, injustice, and anti-democratic process,” she wrote in part.
The Nantucket Unitarian Universalist church is marked as an “LGBTQ Welcoming Congregation” on the Unitarian Universalist Association’s (UUA) website, meaning the church completed a UUA Welcoming Congregation Program and is “intentionally more inclusive towards bisexual, gay, lesbian, and transgender people.”
Splaine graduated from Harvard Divinity School and has a wife, according to the church’s website.

“There once was a lez from Nantucket...”
She has some ‘splaing to do…
.......Splaine graduated from Harvard Divinity School and has a wife......
I remember when Harvard Divinity School was very Lutheran and very straight. I used to enjoy going to HDS and related Lutheran events.
However, it was Lutherans themselves who ruined all of that!

This was all happening after the merger that formed the ever more apostate ELCA.
Now HDS is mainly liberal-protestant and infiltrated by gaysbians and other weirdos! It needs a Harvard president to renew it the way President Pusey did in the 1950s/1960s.
We have those so-called “Unitarian Universalist churches” here in Maine.
They are left-wing political organizations masquerading as a church.
Nantucket? Just exactly what I would expect.
“My cousin was an atheist.
Which wasn’t remarkable in itself except he had a Ph.D. from the Harvard Divinity School and was a minister in Unitarian Universalist church.”

Amazing. According to Webster:
“causing astonishment, great wonder, or surprise”
I think they need to do a witch dunking.
“There once was a lez from Nantucket...”
Who’s going to hell in a bucket
Her “church” isn’t real
All lies does she spiel
On July 4th her thoughts are “Oh f... it!”
This is Unitarian Universalists. They deny the Messiah and the bible. Ignore them and continue on. They are pagans.
Ummmmm everything BUT ministering- pure politics and activism.
Leading the flock astray and starving them, I don’t think this will bode well for her in the end.
Are all female “ministers” lesbian these days?
“Universalist Unitarian” = church for atheists
That's all you need to know. They aren't Christians. It isn't a church. She isn't a minister.
Well, maybe it is a "church" in some sense, and maybe she can be called a "minister" in the way some countries call the person in charge of the military a "minister", but whatever.
Could be anything.
We now have fact as satire.
This is like cutting your nose off to spite your face.
I wonder what the parishioners think of having their traditional celebration cut off by a sniveling “minister?”
GOOD ONE!!!👍👍👏👏
A false church all around.
Rev. Erin Splaine got some ‘splainin’ to do ...
There's not enough clean words that rhyme with "ticket"...
