[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My formerly Catholic DH attends UU services and has asked me to attend sometimes (I am Jewish).[b] My problem with UU is there is no God there - only whatever higher power you believe in.[/b][/quote]
See I will have a problem with the free for all type of environment.  I would rather convert to Judaism and have some type of purpose, history, tradition, and structure.  Is the UU like secular humanist?  [/quote] Some UUs are Humanists, some are Deist, some are Christian, some are Jewish, some are Hindu, some are Buddhist, some are Wiccan,.....  We are brought together by our ascribing to our 7 Principles, which do not require a belief in g-d nor preclude belief.  The service is usually structured like a Protestant Christian service (music throughout, greetings,readings, collection ,homily/reflection, benediction).

I see it referred to as "free for all", but it is because we are free to forge our own path in a responsible search for truth and meaning.  We also support others in their searches.  While we are free to figure it out for ourselves, it is more solemn and deliberate- it isn't willy nilly.  [/quote]
