Re: [UUPoly-L] Stranger In A Strange Land

Jasmine,

Thank you for your reply.  So, then it could be that those in the UU church
I have been visiting may be closeted it seems.  Any suggestions on how to
find them?  There are all sorts of groups in the UU here, I was hoping for a
Poly group. And, by what you suggest there may be enough to have a group if
those who are would make themselves known.  Why did the ones who were Poly
leave UU, did it have anything to do with people being so hush-hush about
Poly?  Or do you know?

Also, the name and number on the site for the Washington area contact is
disconnected---her name is Gloria Fiedler, do you or anyone here know how to
reach her?

Also, I have been reading on and off about the history of Universal
Unitarianism.  How would you recommend this:

Richard's idea of a voluntary survey of readers sound good to me.  But being
new here you all would decide.  If that is acceptable I wonder if those who
volunteered would also be willing to list the State they are in, as well?

Thank you for your time.

Have a good afternoon/evening.

Blessings
Kayla  (katt)
