There was a time when people who were not Christians actually felt that here was a place they could go in Williamsburg. The options are few for people who do not believe in a god, or are agnostics, or may be Buddhists, in this corner of Virginia. This was the only place one could go. Now, however, this UU church is filled with god talk and sermons dedicated to a Christian view of the universe. The current pastor preaches the standard protestant views of heaven, hell, sin, the soul, etc. Oh, they make a big show about being inclusive and welcoming, but the price of membership is the acceptance of the view that the universe was created by an intelligent being. And, this is an anthropic god who is in the reward and punishment business and actually cares what you think about him. In other words, he has a very prickly ego and a very thin skin. This is not the place for my kind. If I want to be scared down to my shoelaces that my every thought is being monitored by some judgmental being I may as well go the local Catholic church. If you are a rational person who takes nothing on faith, then my advice to you is to avoid this place. read more
