A Sunday for Religion

Filed under: General — Lemon @ 6:22 pm

The Sunday morning ritual in my house is Cracker Barrel. Inspiring, let me tell you. ‘First available’ women in their Sunday best stare me down in my sweats as if to say “You heathen woman with your cigarettes! You should be ashamed to show your face on the Lord’s Day!” It’s actually really annoying, seeing as I have a right to be in my section. I don’t ever venture into theirs.Back to the point, or rather on to it. Lately I’ve been yearning for church. Growing up I was there four times a week. Since I’ve been married I’ve been maybe four times in six years. I kind of miss it. So, I was telling my husband over breakfast that I’d like to go to church, any church. Well, I’m not big on Islam, or big budget, big production places. My husband said that he had problems with Christianity, problems with Judaism, and problems with Buddhism and so on so I said “Okay then, what about Unitarianism then?” In case you are unaware, the Unitarians study all religions with an emphasis on Christianity. Buddhists, Wiccans, even atheists are members.
From their website: Unitarian Universalists expect new scientific disclosures to cohere, not conflict, with our religious faith. We embrace the challenge and the joy of intercultural religious fellowship.
My thought was that if he had so many problems, maybe he’d like to explore them. I didn’t care as long as it was some kind of church.
Sean responds to my question “They’re like Agnostics Anonymous and I’m not yet ready to admit I have a problem!”
Ahhhhhh, Sunday mornings . . . .
