I don't consider myself to be a universalist, at least not by the definition you are giving, since I do think that certain flavors of various religions are unethical. In the spirit of keeping things positive, I'll skip naming names. That said, I do tend to interpret the Bible very liberally and often metaphorically. At any rate, I'm looking forward to further conversation! Hi John–the new blog looks great, and it looks like the conversation is off to a great start.

I'm a universalist, but not a Unitarian Universalist since I believe in the Trinity. I guess the closest thing to a Trinitarian Universalist church would be a liberal Episcopal church like the one I belong to. As a former ORU student, I would be fascinated to know what you think of Carlton Pearson's "Gospel of Inclusion" -- a Pentecostal form of universalism that got him kicked off the Board of Directors at ORU.
