Monica White, the Pastafarian Minister, presents: Holy Wounds: Healing from Religious Trauma in UU Spaces.
The road to UU can be rocky. Let’s take some time to acknowledge the pain that can come from any form of organized religion, and remind ourselves that while we purport to offer a safe space for all, there is still a lot of inherent anger, fear, and ingrained trauma that we must overcome with our outreach.
This is an attempt to offer some nontraditional relatability from the pulpit, which can feel scary to many people…and to let those people know that Tapestry welcomes them, too.

There is something awe-inspiring about AI, but also something unpredictable and a little intimidating as well. Whatever you think about data centers or “slop” images, it looks like the “noosphere” of the Super Mind is here to stay.

How will our Unitarian Universalist understandings of interdependence, transformation, and justice help us to avoid the kind of mistakes we made with our “biosphere”-- with the original “interconnected web” of our existence? How will awareness of our responsibility and our inner sense of right and wrong help us make good decisions at the crucial opening of this new age?
