Okay, I’m considering converting to Unitarian Universalism—because I believe technical progress should be guided by ethics, not profit.

I see enshitification—the degradation of technology into exploitative tools—as a moral failure. Progress should serve humanity, not degrade it.

Maybe I need a congregation of Unitarian Universalists? If you’re a UU here, let’s talk—seriously.

Remembering #Origen today. I wonder if anyone will remember me 1900 years from now. Our earliest church leaders were #universalists. Way before the state and church became partners in the last gasps of the Roman Empire. They saw it as an obvious conclusion from the writings of Paul. But it’s tough to motivate people to give money to the #church without guilt and fear, isn’t it?!? https://www.patheos.com/blogs/monkeymind/2024/04/a-feast-for-origen-universalism.html

A Saint's Feast For Origen

Origen’s theological speculations were complex. Two inadequately captured by the terms “reincarnation” and “universalism.”

I'm mildly frustrated with an issue that will probably be resolved after one of my coworkers gets back from vacation in 2 weeks.

I want to start attending a #FriendsMeeting this #Sunday , but the co-worker who was going to cover every-other-Sunday for me got a weekly gig at a different #church

I ain't mad about it - I'm glad he has this opportunity. I just wish the timing was better for me.
