Actually my so-called “crusade” (aka U*U Jihad) is a pro-UU principles and ideals crusade or jihad, and thus it is an anti-UU injustices, abuses, and hypocrisy crusade aka jihad. . . N’est-ce pas?

In fact my U*U Jihad has everything to do with outrageously hypocritical U*Us actively or passively standing in the way of what God directly or indirectly called me to say and do and preach. To you
and other U*Us I simply say either lead, follow, or get out of the way. . .

Sincerely,

But I'll probably delete a lot of them because they're long, they feel wildly off topic to everyone but you most of the time, and because I believe that it's very likely that you a far more valuable theological contribution to make with your vision than to keep huffing about how hypocritical UUs are. IMHO, most of us are UUs because we KNOW that we, like all other religious people, are hypocritical and fallible,and we take refuge in UUism's iconoclasm for just that reason.<br/><br/>I'm curious: if you let go of the anti-UU crusade, what would God be calling you to say and do and preach?

I'm trying to be patient. I know you can get this.<br/><br/>Your first statement was interesting and I would have liked to have heard more about the God of your understanding and experience. I think we all know what the UUs of your experience and understanding are all about.
