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.
