[quote=Anonymous]NP: my husband is quite UU and I am Catholic. Our son was raised in both churches and took OWL at age 14. I think he has a very healthy perspective towards sexuality now a few years later.  However, he says that as much as he identifies with UU principles, he believes in God.  He says that he feels more comfortable around Catholics because of their sense of community which translates to service.

It is tough to be Catholic right now, but maybe because I lived through the great transitions of Vatican II and the Civil Rights movement, my commitment is less to the institution's worst traits than to the many good and great things that it does with and for others.  Those transitions forced me to anchor my faith in a different way.

You got some good responses here.  Every UU church is different depending on the congregation and the minister.  So shop around.

With that said and after reading your responses, may I suggest that you go check out a Lutheran church - where you will find similar liturgy in some respects, less dogma, and children's programming?

The other place to check out is a United Church of Christ Congregation.  Very liberal Christians.  [/quote]
