[Note: I've stepped down as organizer of the Salem Universists group. Reason is described in my "I abandon Universism" post. So far no one wants to take over as organizer, but such might happen.]
Welcome. Here you'll find information about the Salem, Oregon Universists, a group devoted to discussing the big questions of life in a dogma-free fashion. We are tolerant of any and all spiritual, religious, or philosophical beliefs other than intolerance.
This is the weblog of Brian Hines, organizer of the Salem Universists. I'm using this Church of the Churchless post as a web page where people can get information about our group.
You can join the Salem Universists and learn about upcoming meetings on our MeetUp.com listing. When we meet in a public place the date, time, and location are shown to anyone visiting our MeetUp listing. Only members can view information about meetings at a private home.
If you have questions about the Salem Universists, email me or give me a call: 503-371-8892.
Visit the web site of the worldwide Universist Movement. There you'll find much to explore, including this introduction to Universism, answers to frequently asked questions, and a great cartoon guide to Universism (if you read nothing else, look at this).
I've written about my own conversion to Universism in "Universism, a kindred unfaith" and "Plunging deeper into Universism."
And my take on some initial meetings can be read in "Salem Universists meet, noisily" and "Our churchless discussion group."
