I dont know, maybe it’s just cause Presidents’ Day. I won’t know for sure until next week. But normal the just push my schedule back for holidays. I think it’s cause they hate me.

Thanks for not shunning me.

Sadness is swallowing me. Why did I have to be born into this stupid and backward culture that is trying to mold my psyche?


is there maybe a humanist or freethinker group you can meet up with?


I once attended an Unitarian fellowship but I grew disillusioned with it.

unitarians tend to be rich folks so can be off-putting to most of us, but would you be willing to give them another chance? what bothered you about them?

It wasn't really that. I never inquired about their finances. The discussions were either very uninteresting or too short, sometimes they said things like "White people can't decide we can't eat animals anymore." out of the blue, and I was disappointed how the women my age always had boyfriends or husbands.

might the support and friends (and their friends you might meet through them) be worth putting up with the downside?

The "loft" means the puffiness. So de-lofting means that they lost their puffiness over time. I put them in the clothes dryer with tennis balls and they seem much happier now. :heart:

I actually sometimes still talk to a couple that used to go to the fellowship. They left because they said some inappropriate things were being told ro the children as well as some domestic violence going on in the services and they tried to take a stand but few stood with them so they felt betrayed.

domestic violence in the services? what are the particulars? what were the children being told? unitarians' first principle is to uphold the dignity and worth of every person. very un-unitarian unitarians. i guess every faith has hypocrites. it's a shame to hear of them ruining a whole fellowship, though.

i'm glad you've kept in touch with some of the members.
