Skepticologist, some UU's are more religious, others are more political, some are social activists, others rely heavily on other causes that are important to the members. Sometimes you have to visit a few locations to see which one is inline with your beliefs!
Thanks. I'll look into it a bit more deeply. Maybe it's just my locale (Houston) where so many of them feel too much like church. I have no need of religion, but I could use a bit more point-counter-point with other folks, whether they're "like-minded" or not.
