“Such is, very briefly, my view of the religion of this land; and to avoid any misunderstanding, growing out of the use of general terms, I mean, by the religion of this land, that which is revealed in the words, deeds, and actions, of those bodies, north and south, calling themselves Christian churches, and yet in union with slaveholders. It is against religion, as presented by these bodies, that I have felt it my duty to testify...
“Why Participate in Sexy Travel? This type of life experience isn’t for everyone, and in no way am I trying to convince you otherwise. There are many benefits of sexy travel, and whether you intend to participate or not, remaining sex-positive about these experiences for others is critical!

“Do ? 1. Research the sex club you’re attending Every sex club is different. They have different rules, prices, and vibes. It’s important to research the sex club you’re attending so you can learn if there are any rules specific to it, and if it feels like a good fit for you.

"Laura Spencer
First Unitarian Universalist Church
Ann Arbor, MI
I grew up without a formal religious education. My exposure to the Bible was limited. As an adult, I am interested in learning more. While the Bible contains many valuable lessons, I read it with caution and sensitivity. It helps to have some sense of the time in which it was written and the many alterations and translations it has undergone in reaching its present form...
"What Do We Believe about God?
Unitarian Universalists have many ways of naming what is sacred. Some believe in a God; some don’t believe in a God. Some believe in a sacred force at work in the world, and call it “love,” “mystery,” “source of all” or “spirit of life.” We are thousands of individuals of all ages, each influenced by our cultures and life experiences to understand “the ground of our being” in our own way...
