[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Move to NW DC and join the UU church. You'll meet many more ladies that way :)[/quote]

But won't have your Catholic beliefs reinforced, assuming that it's important to you.[/quote]

You can be UU-anything. UU Jewish, UU Catholic, UU Atheist. [/quote]

Yes, the UU's will accept you, but you won't hear anything about catholic teachings during services.  No communion, no priest, [b]no talk against abortion or birth control.[/b]

Going to UU services is equivalent to missing mass.[/quote]

I was raised Catholic, and went to a Catholic University. In all my childhood and adolescence, I never once heard a homily on abortion or birth control.  I heard a lot the focused on loving your neighbor, caring for the poor, working for justice, seeking and offering forgiveness, and strengthening your faith.  These are values that other faiths share.  I have been to services at other churches, and certainly had my Catholic beliefs reinforced, because the officiant talked about love, justice, faith, and forgiveness.
