Rev. John Cullinan aka Obijuan Tells The Tiny Declining Fringe Religion™ That It Is A Minor League Religion If Not A Bush League Religion. . .
In the 'Why A General Assembly Boycott of Arizona Is Not An Option' post of his Returning blog -
Major league sports. Major league dollars. Major league civic ego stroking.
Dear friends, we bring none of this to the table. Sure, we boycotted Arizona, too. We know we did it. But I doubt highly there was anyone in a position of power in the entire state who was thinking, “Dammit, if we’ve lost the Unitarians, we’ve lost the country.”
If we’re being honest about what we, as a national movement, bring to the fight, we need to admit that a high profile national image on par with the National Football League (and the $$ that comes with that image) is not one of the arrows in our quiver. We will not, in the long run, accomplish anything by our absence. No one will notice.

Well said John.
