Democracy, industry, even environmental actions require citizens to act rationally. So what should we make of the massive out-break of irrationality in the US? How do we deal with the growing evidence that our use of reason is very sketchy? We will explore the issue and discuss ways to improve our chances of making good decisions.
Ben Dolf is a long time member of Capital and is more passionate about democracy than ever.

C.S. Lewis was correct when he wrote, “Integrity is doing the right thing even when no one is watching.” Our first principle is the inherent worth and dignity of every person.

On this date in 1994 a magnitude 6.7 earthquake hit Northridge, California; on this date in 1995 a magnitude 7.3 earthquake occurred near Kobe, Japan. Are the gods trying to tell us something about January 17 or can reason and science help Unitarian-Universalists understand and prepare for earthquakes?

One of the gifts that humanism provided Unitarians is idea that whatever happens, it’s in our own two hands to create the kind of life we envision for all living beings on the planet. Join us as we explore what Unitarian Universalism call us to do in the world, our communities and ourselves.
Rev. Samaya Oakley is the Development Minister at the First Unitarian Fellowship of Nanaimo. She received her Master of Divinity at the Vancouver School of Theology in the spring of 2013, the only Unitarian Universalist at the School of Theology. She won the award for best sermon at the school in 2012. Samaya’s vision of ministry is embodied in our living tradition. It is by standing on the side of love, of compassion, of generosity, and by taking the time to truly listen to the other to make sure that all points of view are taken into account, that we engage our living tradition.
