My Natural Religion blog is about natural religion, what it is, and where you find it. Recently I did a couple of posts about Christianity. Yes, you can find natural religion within the Christian tradition! However, writing about one of the grand traditions brought up for me what shall I call this, deep etiquette rules. How do you conduct yourself in a big, old tradition such as Christianity (or Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, and smaller ones too) and still be true to your soul?
I left Christianity over 40 years ago. I could not be told I was a sinner just because I existed (and this was before I came out). Wicca was good, but I wanted community. Then I found Unitarian Universalism. I could be an open lesbian and accepted. I could explore Wicca, Buddhism, and Christianity to my fill my emotional and spiritual space. I found a community of like minds, one that really cared about the world, people and animals. Yes, there are some disappointments But, overall it is where my heart and soul are. Just going to a Catholic service with my family reminds me how much I love my faith, Unitarian Universalism
Really enjoying your posts, especially that they aren't time sensitive. This particular one is something I could refer others to if I knew they were searching.
