American Unitarian Conference Forum

Just as an observation of how an organization risks becoming all things to all people while losing its central identity. It appears the UUA has decided to revise who will be considered an Independent Affiliate Organization:

"Approved:

Council of Unitarian Universalists Camps and Conferences
Unitarian Universalist Urban Ministry.

IA status was denied to the following groups:

Disaffiliated:

Unitarian Universalist Men’s Network
Unitarian Sunday School Society
Collegium
Faithful Fools Street Ministry
Lambda Ministers Guild
New Massachusetts Universalist Convention
Project Harvest Hope
The Unitarian Universalist Psi Symposium
Unitarian Universalist Retired Ministers and Partners Association
Unitarian Universalists for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
District Presidents’ Association
Council on Church Staff Finances
Unitarian Universalists for Social Justice
Unitarian Universalist Peace Fellowship
Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans"

This may be a good thing from an organizational point of view but it is sure to cause much internal strife.
