Religion meme ganked off sixth_light. I want to know what Unitarian Universalism is, and also, I want to know what a girl has to do to get nontheist around here. OTOH, I'm pretty pleased with Secular Humanist, as that's where I've always buttonholed myself, basically. So yay. (Er, and, Liberal Quakers, wtf?)

*pulls hair*

What is it with people assuming that lack of belief in religion = lack of moral stances? Huh? HUH?

I know, I know, what they mean is that non-theism (stupid name, anyway) does not have one particular social stance you can apply to it. But you'd think they could just ditch non-theism and have "conservative secular" and "liberal secular". Or something.

Which raises the interesting point of how much religion is actually tied in to political views, as much as the Western world tries to separate the two...

Um, they've GOT secular humanism in there as a lack of belief in religion with a specific set of moral stances....

*agrees with PK* They have non-theist without connected moral structures because there are many people in this world who do not believe in God who also do not connect their moral structures to each other, or to one particular idea or whatever like I do. (That's humanism, kinda)
