Belief in a cruel God makes a cruel man.
Thomas Paine -
What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him?
Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, ‘Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, ‘You have faith; I have deeds.’
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.James 2:14-18Posted on March 7, 2012 via so it goes. with 3 notes

And Lot’s wife, of course, was told not to look back where all those people and their homes had been. But she did look back, and I love her for that, because it was so human.
So she was turned to a pillar of salt. So it goes.Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse Five -

UU Affirmation
Love is the doctrine of this church,
Our faith in each other is its sacrament,
Working for justice and living with compassion is its prayer.
Reverently we covenant together
to stand on the side of love, to heal and not to harm,
and to share hope with each other and with the world.Posted on July 13, 2011 via Remember that I love you. with 7 notes

If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn’t help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we’ve got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without conditions and then admit that we just don’t want to do it.

So let me say this as clearly as I can — the United States is not and will never be at war with Islam.

Nah. We’re just really cool.
^accurate description is accurate. UUs rock.

I don't take myself seriously and you probably shouldn't either.
