21. The Unity church we visited

is strong on Christianity and New Age spiritualism, but not conservatism. Here's their site, and their page for Sunday services (that gives a better description of what we went to.)

I think I was expecting a full lack of any religion, and something more "homogenized" from all religions. What I'd read around here about people visiting UU churches was it seemed more pagan than anything remotely like Christianity.

I don't dislike Christianity. I was raised Episcopalian. I just found the rituals meaningless. Thinking through personal beliefs, maybe with some conversational guidance, is about all I want from religion of any kind. That's why the Internet is so wonderful in that aspect
