The Devil's Advocate
I have a dream... and that is to build a website that is both a one stop resource for UUs and a way to reach out to religious liberals who might be UUs and not yet know it.
Yes, I know that there is the UUA website. And I love the new look and the long overdue revamp. But it can't hurt to have more voices shouting out there in the wilderness.
I have a dream and I need your help. HELP!!
What I envision is information divided into sections based on what I believe to be the major components of Unitarian Universalism. (It would be interesting to know how your vision of UU differs from mine.) They are:
1) UU specific content, such as UU history, theology, our hymnal, etc.
2) resources from the world's other religions, such as scriptures, stories, prayers from Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam, Paganism, Taoism, etc.
3) information on social justice as seen from a UU perspective
4) discussion forums (I believe that the UUA shut theirs down)
5) possibly a wiki, depending upon whether others think it's a good idea and also on whether I can figure out how to make one work.
If anyone wants to write op-eds from a UU perspective that would be good too.
I can't possibly do it alone. So I am asking you, dear Unitarian, Universalist, and Unitarian Universalist sisters and brothers, whether you have any interest in any of these sections (or have other suggestions) and are willing to help compile information. And also, more importantly it seems, help me figure out how to organize such information.
Thanks.
