I'm a UU convert (8 years now) - if you can call it a conversion. I do have a belief in God - but I simply do not believe the most basic tenets of Christianity. I.E. Virgin Birth, Jesus Made Deity, Resurrection, etc. etc. I believe because he lived not because he died a horrific death at the hands of Roman Rule. . . See - even right there - I'm not a believer in the Status Quo. By the by - in my 20's I was a baptist Sunday school teacher and was raised in the Baptist Church.

To ask me to call myself a Christian/identify as one is insulting not only to me - but to mainline Christians of all shades of thought.

I like Progressive People of Faith.
