October 4: SURGEON GENERAL’S WARNING: Religion Can Be Hazardous to your Health

One needs only leaf through a history textbook to find plenty of evidence that religion can be hazardous to our health. The stories of people who have been persecuted or killed because of their beliefs (or lack thereof), as well as personal accounts of the damaging effects of religion, might lead us to wonder, would we be better off in a purely secular society?

It is also Association Sunday - most congregations will join together on October 4, 2009.

We are better together! Let us continue our efforts to Grow Our Faith, and in so doing build the beloved community.Through this special service and collection to fund Growth in Diversity programs, we can develop spiritual communities that are more racially, culturally, and economically inclusive and welcoming to ALL people.

Celebrate Association Sunday with Unitarian Universalists across the country!
