art, overlapping voice balloonsCalm, clear, and collected discussions on current “hot” topics as well as other issues from a Unitarian Universalist perspective. We meet on the second and fourth Sundays of the month BEFORE regular Sunday services, from 8:45 am to 9:45 am in Harmony Hall.

Topic: 6 ways Religion Does More Bad Than Good

According to Valerie Tarico, there are six ways religion does more bad than good:

  1. Religion promotes tribalism
  2. Religion anchors believers to the Iron Age
  3. Religion makes a virtue out of faith
  4. Religion diverts generous impulses and good intentions
  5. Religion teaches helplessness
  6. Religions seek power 

What do you think?
So bring a cup of coffee/tea and come speak your mind and share your views in a safe, non-threatening atmosphere.
