More U*U Foot-In-Mouth Disease. . .
More empty words from U*U religious leaders. . .
"Our Unitarian Universalist faith helps us to understand that we do live in a tragic world," Southworth concludes, but he affirms that "there are also creative, healing forces: the power of love, the ability to seek justice, to celebrate beauty wherever it is."
Parker says, "I think our humanism is our best resource when it helps us understand that our freedom of choice means that all of us are capable of evil acts as well as wonderful acts of goodness. We need religion not to protect us from this world but to enable us to engage it in a way that repairs and restores life, and prevents more violence from happening."
McKeeman offers this advice: "As the UU Service Committee has often reminded us, if you want peace, work for justice."
Thandeka says that if we as Unitarian Universalists "honor and respect the interdependent web of all life, then the goal is to bring everyone to the table, to stop the assaults, to address the grievances. The answers aren't simple, and when we apply simple answers to complex problems we can be sure of one thing: the answers will be wrong."
