Unitarian Universalism

Have any of you been to a Unitarian Universalism church? This is the description I found from Wikipedia:

Unitarian Universalism is a theologically liberal religion characterized by a "free and responsible search for truth and meaning".[1] Unitarian Universalists do not share a creed; rather, they are unified by their shared search for spiritual growth and by the understanding that an individual's theology is a result of that search and not a result of obedience to an authoritarian requirement. Unitarian Universalists draw on many different theological sources and have a wide range of beliefs and practices.[2][3]

Contemporary Unitarian Universalism espouses a pluralist approach to religious belief, whereby members may describe themselves as humanist, agnostic, deist, atheist, pagan, christian, monotheist, pantheist, polytheist, or assume no label at all. As of 2006, fewer than about 20% of Unitarian Universalists identified themselves as Christian.

I have never been before but it sounds interesting to have people of so many backgrounds come together... I gave a presentation on the Atheist/Humanist perspective at a community event recently and was invited to speak at the Universalist church.
