Having found Unitarian Universalism I have found that I can "take the best and leave the rest" in all these traditions. What I have found is that the mystical traditions in all religions have much more in common than the religions themselves. It says in A Course In Miracles that there are different theologies but a single experience.

I have never been told before that there is a choice even though I sensed it. There have not been words to describe it and now I feel affirmed that some of my thoughts and feelings have names. I definitely have been searching for the path of the spirit. That's what brought me to UU. Once I arrived though I haven't found an awful lot that has been of help.
