Book banning still lives in Massachusetts
Harry Potter books have been banned by the pastor of a Catholic school in Wakefield, MA, saying that that the themes of witchcraft and sorcery were inappropriate for a Catholic school.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. But why don't books of fiction about murder get banned? Murder isn't as bad as sorcery, I guess.
Another UU bites the dust
For those of you who equate Unitarian Universalism with political liberalism, I would ask that you read this blog entry entitled
So Long UU.
I understand where he's coming from. I'm politically a liberal, but I find it offensive when it's assumed that everyone in my congregation is also liberal. UUism is religiously liberal - I assume we'd all agree on that. But we shouldn't carry that over into the political arena.
