Exactly.
But the #UUA is actually doing considerable harm to the institution & the larger UU community by not only FAILing & even refusing to provide genuine justice to #ClergyMisconduct victims, but going to extreme & foolish lengths to cover-up & deny #ClergySexAbuse that includes #ChildSexAbuse.
You're welcome.
The #UUA has a long & shameful history of negligently mishandling #ClergyMisconduct complaints in a manner that protects #AbusiveClergy from #accountability.
It even lied about #ChildSexAbuse in a dishonest "apology" for #ClergySexAbuse:

I'm raising awareness to the #abuse, & not just the #ClergySexAbuse that includes #ChildSexAbuse, but the past & apparently ongoing negligent & complicit mishandling of #ClergyMisconduct complaints, the shunning & silencing of victims, & the #CoverUp & #denial that includes lying in "apologies".
ICYMI The "powers of the soul" of U*U #ClergyMisconduct victims & #ClergyAbuse #whistleblowers have been silenced, suppressed, or denied by the dehumanizing #censorship & suppression of #FreeSpeech by not only the #UUA as an institution, but many individual U*Us, including hypocritical #UUAclergy.
I hear you Ms. Alex.
I would be quite interested in hearing your own personal critique of #UnitarianUniversalism from your perspective as a Black woman aka a #BIPOC person.
My main concerns are #ClergyMisconduct & #AntiReligious intolerance & #bigotry, but I'm concerned about other #UUproblems.
One of the things I did today in Montreal. . .

Here are some signs I made to protest the UUA's shameful mishandling of #ClergyMisconduct complaints, & its #BatShitCrazy attempt to conceal #ChildSexAbuse by threatening me with prosecution for #BlasphemousLibel for blogging #UUpedophiles & #UUrapists.

Good question.
#UnitarianUniversalists pretend to be great champions of #FreeSpeech, but they go to extreme & foolish lengths to silence #ClergyMisconduct victims & #ClergyAbuse critics & #whistleblowers, including misusing #BlasphemyLaw in #UUA #ChildSexAbuse cover-up #LegalBullying.
#UUhypocrisy
I will find "a path forward" when the #UUA admits that it has been mishandling, minimizing, covering-up & denying all forms of #ClergyMisconduct, both #SexualMisconduct & non-sexual misconduct, properly & publicly apologizes, & provides genuine #RestorativeJusticeForALL victims of #UU #ClergyAbuse.
Unitarian Universalists almost always refuse to do the something they can do when it comes to #ClergyMisconduct aka #ClergyAbuse committed by #UUAclergy.
For example, the #UUA continues to refuse to #TellTheTruth about #ClergySexAbuse.

How is #BlowingTheWhistle on #UnitarianUniversalist injustices, abuses & #hypocrisy "weirdly reminiscent of the antisemitism (you) get"?
If I was exposing & denouncing #ClergyMisconduct & other injustices, abuses, & hypocrisy in a #Jewish religious community would that = #antisemitism?
#UUism #UUA
Who said anything about "a minister in Canada"?
I'm talking about literally hundreds of #UUA ministers who are guilty of various forms of #ClergyMisconduct aka #ClergyAbuse in the USA, who never faced proper #accountability from the UUA or their congregations. The UUA lied in a worthless "apology".
No.
The #UUA has to properly & publicly apologize for what the UUA did & provide long ago promised, but never actually provided. . . #RestorativeJusticeForALL #ClergyMisconduct victims.
Every UUA congregation that did not properly redress #ClergyMisconduct should apologize & provide #justice too.
Everything I'm saying about #UnitarianUniversalist #ClergyMisconduct aka #ClergyAbuse that includes #ChildSexAbuse, & ongoing #UUA mishandling, #minimization, cover-up & #Denial thereof, can be verified if you engage in "a free & responsible search for truth & meaning" as per UUism's #4thPrinciple.
Your people almost always disappoint when it comes to how U*Us respond to not only #ClergyMisconduct, but #UUA mishandling, minimization, cover-up & denial of #UnitarianUniversalist #ClergyAbuse that includes #ChildSexAbuse.

Ah yes, Rev. Dr. Sofía Betancourt, the #UUA president who not only ignored me, but blocked me, when I invited her to begin the 'National Conversation On #ClergyMisconduct' she agreed was needed in 2013.

Yes, I'm well aware that corruption or abuse is not confined to #UUism.
I'm a victim of non-sexual #ClergyMisconduct committed by #UnitarianUniversalist ministers.
I decided to #BlowTheWhistle on #ClergySexualMisconduct too after I was informed that most victims had been silenced.
#UUA #UUAclergy
I don't know how many of those "hundreds of Unitarian Universalist ministers" converging in Minneapolis are guilty of #ClergyMisconduct of one kind or another, but I do know that ALL of them are #complicit in #UUA #ChildSexAbuse cover-up & denial.

#UUsky
Speaking of #bandaids and #CoverUps. . . the #UUA not only FAILs miserably to respond to #ClergyMisconduct in a manner that models the claimed principles of #UUism, but goes to extreme & foolish lengths to #CoverUp & even officially deny #ChildSexAbuse.

You can get to know Rev. Ashley Horan better by knowing that the UUA's Vice President for Programs & *Ministries*, & ALL other #UUA leaders, lack the "bravery" needed to properly take care of the thousands of good people who've been impacted by U*U #ClergyMisconduct that includes #ChildSexAbuse.
Sadly, UUA Vice President for Programs & Ministries Rev. Ashley Horan, & ALL other #UUA leaders, lack the #MoralCourage required to properly take care of the thousands of people who've been impacted by U*U #ClergyMisconduct that includes #ChildSexAbuse.

Is she really?
In her capacity as the #UnitarianUniversalist Association's Vice President for Programs & #Ministry, what is Rev. Ashley Horan doing to redress decades worth of #UUA mishandling, minimization, cover-up & #Denial of #ClergyMisconduct aka #ClergyAbuse that includes #ChildSexAbuse?
