[edit] Overview
Unitarianism is the "non-religion" religion. Think of Unitarians as caffeine-free sugar-free cola. If they were furniture they'd be sofa-beds. Think windbreakers, white bread, home haircuts. Think Kansas.
[edit] Beliefs and Behavior
Unitarians are staunch in their belief that they have no definite beliefs and all beliefs are just fine. They spread this word by not spreading it in a genial and very helpful way. Unitarians are eager to help anyone at all in any way possible, but only if they can do so while taking no stand on any issue or belief at all. They seem generally a happy lot, in an unfocused "cow watching a train pass" kind of way.
You can recognize a Unitarian in the way he welcomes all strangers with a limp, lukewarm handshake, a weak smile and marginal eye contact.
Unitarians tend to go on "missions" to other parts of the country, where they sit in groups in the local Bob Evans and talk about nature in general terms over cold coffee.
[edit] Reasons To Avoid Unitarians
- Attempting to have a discussion with a Unitarian is always exhausting. They wear you down with their reasonable, noncommittal attitude and bland, agreeable ways.
- Unitarians bathe in cold water, and do not use soap. They smell like the cuff of your grandmother's wool coat. This can be stifling in an enclosed environment.
- Groups of Unitarians are known to "clump," much in the way of sheep on twisty country roads. In the absence of someone to lead them in a direction, these clumps often persist for weeks. It can take many minutes to walk around clumped Unitarians, but it is time well spent, because any attempt to pass through their group will lead to both of the effects above.
