SUMMARY:Sunday Service on Zoom - Our Philosophical Religion
DESCRIPTION:Is Unitarian Universalism best described as a late offshoot of Protestant Christianity\, or a very late offshoot of Greek philosophy? FUUSN member Arthur Anderson has made a decades-long study of this question resulting in a treatise titled The Transcendentalists and The Death and Rebirth of Western Philosophical Religion. This Sunday\, Arthur will describe his research and open up a new perspective on the history and essential nature of our faith.

SUMMARY:Sunday Service on Zoom - In Defense of Capitalism
DESCRIPTION:As members of a liberal faith\, we are regularly alerted to the importance of disciplining capitalism through initiatives like anti-monopoly legislation\, unionization; and social\, equity and governance policies. In our zeal to discipline capitalism\, however\, have we missed a larger reality – that it is capitalism which is responsible for the economic well-being of our age on which we all depend. FUUSN member Urban Larson addresses these questions regularly in his university teaching. His thoughts for us this Sunday will be an invitation to consider our biases concerning essential economic realities.

SUMMARY:Summer Service on Zoom - Psychedelics and Spirituality: The Religion with No Name
DESCRIPTION:Today we are experiencing something of a renaissance in the understanding and acceptance of psychedelic experience. The medical community is leading this renaissance as it researches the power of psychedelics to address medical conditions such as addiction and anxiety. Yet throughout history\, psychedelics have been even more centrally valued for their ability to promote spiritual experiences of love and oneness – creating what some have called The Religion With No Name. In this service\, Curt Lamb will lead a discussion of the implications for contemporary spiritual life of the psychedelic renaissance.
