I was a UU for the better part of a decade, before I found the Druid Revival.
UUism could theoretically have been a sheltering organization for religious dissidents, but in my experience it has a huge yawning abyss at its heart. By the time I left, it seemed to be divided into elderly atheists who were committed to their Protestant LARP, and an influx of wokies eager to turn the whole organization into another skinsuit.
While I met many wonderful people there, on the whole I am left with no fondness for them.
