re: #191 Feline Fearless Leader

I’ve heard UU described as “training wheels for atheists”.

;)

LOL. The UU folks are very nice. They’re very welcoming to everyone. The pastor there let me borrow “Rescuing The Bible From Fundamentalism”; what a great read that was. It still sticks with me to this day; when I read the Qur’an, I remember the lessons of that book about context, historical background, interaction with other faiths, etc. So on the one hand, I certainly can read the Qur’an as a holy text, and on the other, I can read between the lines and appreciate it in its proper contextual setting.

Qur’anic literalism is just as dangerous as Biblical literalism.
