"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." - Matt 7:21
Somewhere I saw this quote: “Unitarianism is a religion that believes in, at most, one god.”
...with a 501C3!
I sound pretty "intolerant" today, don't I?
I had heard “Unitarianism is a religion that believes in zero or more gods.”
So, it would appear that Obama was hiding his Unitarian beliefs by attending Rev. Wright’s church.
That is really clever.
Several of the victims appeared to not want to bother to testify against the guy in any court hearing to say nothing of a trial.
Several of their members had to wrestle this guy to the ground to stop the shooting because, it seems, no one had bothered to arm himself to repel such an attacker.
Obama's Other Controversial Church
Good point/question.
We have a lot of would-be Mullahs around here.
I was quoting the article. The answer is this: a cult of Obama.
Herman Mellville began attending a unitarian church in Brooklyn after he finished Moby Dick.
In fact the Aryan heresy—to which the unitarians subscribed — was all the rage on both sides of the atlantic. It was the underlying subtext that informed much of the philosophical and theological talk of the 19th century. It made Christianity pretty much defenseless against the atheists because it substituted a mystery at the heart of the Christianity with mere human sacrifice.
I am not surprised that they were reluctant to get involved. Its membership seems self-absorbed. They prefer feel good activities as long as such activities do not interrupt their lives.
This story doesn’t mention one thing, which is that First Unitarian Church in Honolulu has gone beyond advocating the homosexual lifestyle to now also actively supporting “polyamory” (regular sex with multiple “accepting” partners—people who consider themselves “respectable” swingers).
E.g.:

“Something else that seems clear is this. A sizeable number of polys also identify ourselves as Unitarian Universalists. We keep running into each other at poly conferences and in cyberspace. There’s an e-mail list for poly UUs which has over 300 subscribers. A national organization called Unitarian Universalists for Polyamory Awareness meets annually at the UUA General Assembly. There appears to be a kind of natural affinity between religious liberalism and lifestyle pioneering.
“In Honolulu, the First Unitarian Church has had a polyamory discussion group meeting weekly at the church since 1994. The group’s meetings are listed in the church calendar and the church directory of programs. A number of long-time church members have been frequent participants in the poly group, and a number of people from outside have become members and friends of the church through attending the poly discussions.”

They have a swingers’ group, excuse me “polyamorists,” that meet there and hook-up with other attenders regularly.

I’ve always thought of Unitarians as pagans who can’t kick the church-going habit. My personal observation is that 90% are non-observant Jews and lapsed Catholics. They think of themselves as “rationalists” but having been invited to speak at one Unitarian “fellowship” some years ago (on the morality of liberty) I was struck by the puerile anti-thought being expressed in the discussion session. Their only doctrinal fundamental, as near as I can tell, is “niceness.” Well, maybe the virtue of unbleached linen too. That makes them excellent neighbors and lousy decision makers.
Look at who have been Unitarian politicians.
Next you’ll be telling us he’s a Democrat. /sarc
I stopped seeing that woman very shortly after this experience.
