Or, people who practice liberal religion realize they don't have all the answers but want to have an environment to become better people, study Christ and his followings, including the ideals taught in the Good Samaritan and the commandment to love thy neighbor.

Unilke those religions who think they have all the answers even though they are constantly wrong and look to demonize those they know nothing about and are scared of.

Oh, so it's a Christian thing. That makes more sense.

Nope, it's not a Christian thing at all. Any religion that is scared of those different than how they are, and uses that religion to exclude and create fear against the other groups, is just as guilty.

Christ took Mary, who was a whore, and told her she had no condemnation. That is, if not the biggest lesson Christ ever taught, one of the biggest lessons.

Show me a religion that follows this principle:

.

3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,

4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

Not necessarily. You can be an atheist and fully participate in the Unitarian Univeralist group. That's the whole point - nobody is telling you what to believe or not believe, what to feel or not feel. You follow your heart and mind and make your own decisions and make the experience your own. It's the ultimate agency. It's a relief to have a positive experience when you are used to feeling like a worthless piece of crap after church meetings in the past (yes, I get that not everyone internalizes church messages the way I did).

Ah, a liberal humanist church then. Still a religion. One of the better ones though. A solid 6/10.

Dude the title of this thread gives Trump credit for driving people to attend. I find that to be weird btw. Not shocking or all that unexpected but still weird.
