"Political Conservatism and Political Liberalism, Is Peace Possible?", by John Stirling Walker

With politics existing on two ends of a continuum sometimes the middle ground seems the farthest distance.

Standing On the Side of Love

SOSL20091The First Unitarian Society of Denver will hold their fifth annual “Standing on the Side of Love” public worship service, affirming inclusive family values at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, September 26th, on the west steps of the Colorado State Capitol Building.  All are welcome to join in the celebration of Love and inclusive families - including Gay, Lesbian, Bi-sexual, and Transgender families.

The service will have a great choir performance, moving readings, a flower communion, and a sermon that doesn’t pull any punches with the necessity of a repeal of Amendment 43, passed in 2006, which made it illegal for any elected official to introduce legislation that might create marriage equality.  This amendment can ONLY be repealed through the action of citizens.  This SOSL service is planned as a kick-off for organized UU and like-minded partner efforts to get Amendment 43 repealed.  This collaborative community witness service is a visible and powerful opportunity to Stand on the Side of LoveSOSL20092

According to Rev. Mike Morran, “Standing on the Side of Love” is people of faith standing up for marriage equality, against current Colorado law.  We strongly support inclusive family values, and believe that all human beings are children of God, created in Love, worthy of dignity and respect to the fullest extent possible.  We believe that marriage is a sacrament of the church, not of the state, and that our laws should clearly reflect this distinction. We invite all people of faith to join us as we stand on the side of Love on September 26th.”
