2. I discovered UUs back in 1979.

It's a good place for atheists/agnostics/pagans/the confused to hang out and feel like members of a community. The congregations vary a lot.

There are Unitarian Christians but I have not met any.

I unfortunately live out in the country and they don't have UU churches in the country. I'm 60 miles from the nearest fellowship. I have been a summer piano player/Music Director at a UU fellowship and you have the same political struggles you have in regular churches.

The jokes are that they worship the Giver of Life -- the Coffeepot, and
that Unitarians pray To Whom It May Concern.

Good luck in your search!
