I was born a Unitarian, and we attended a church just outside Toronto. The sort of place that back in the early 60's had yoga classes. Very laid-back, and a great relief for my parents after being raised strict Presbyterian and Anglican. But by the time I was 5 my mother became a confirmed atheist, and we never returned.

I was born and raised Unitarian, but the Lord appeared to me in a vision and told me it was OK to sleep late on Sundays.

Sure, as long as they drink coffee. Or at least tolerate it. It's the only UU sacrament. Atheists and anybody who thinks for themselves are cordially invited.

The lady who chairs the Democratic Party in our county goes to my church. She is 100 pounds of fire-breathing liberal whup-ass. I would pay cash money to see her take on these wingtards.
