Interesting Quote
I found a passage is "Les Miserables" that struck me as interesting. It says:
"There are geniuses who, in the fathomless depths of abstraction and pure speculation - situated, so to speak, above all dogmas - present their ideas to God. Their prayer audaciously offers an argument. Their worship questions. This is direct religion, filled with anxiety and repsonsibility for those who would scale it's walls."
A perfect summary of Unitarian Universalism! Except that I would not only limit it to "geniuses", since that implies you need some sort of special learning to get to that state.
