I'm getting really inspired by the evolutionary spirituality movement, and I think Unitarian Universalism is one of the best mediums for growing these important ideas (as well as one of the best vehicles for transmitting them). Since UU forebears really came into their own in the era when humanity had some understanding of evolution, we have formed much of our faith in the light of that knowledge. I don't mean to imply that UU is the only faith through which humanity can realize a fuller spiritual perspective, but I think we have tremendous potential.
Here's a link to a podcast of Evolutionary Evangelist Michael Dowd's latest sermon on the next evolutionary step -- cultural evolution. (And by the way, the lovely kid in the photo is MY gorgeous daughter, at the Topeka zoo.)
