As upheld by the principles and sources of the UUA, you are truly free to draw upon "direct experience of the transcendent" for your religious identity. However, this does not entitle you to a fully sanctioned prophetic status as the Creation Days spokesperson of the UUA.<BR/><BR/>Pray tell me, the ratio of false prophets to true in the time of Elijah.<BR/><BR/>"Forgive them Lord, for they know not what they do."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
