As individuals and as a church, we can all use an Easter every now and then. At UUCC we are Easter people, rising from whatever darkness that befalls us, conquering whatever adversity that confronts us, and creating a sunny day from whatever storm that may rain on our parade.
“Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion: The Wisdom of Jonathan Haidt”
Dr. Michael Sullivan will be presenting a creative understanding of why good people are divided by politics and religion. It is based on the work of social psychologist Jonathan Haidt. Dr. Haidt concludes that “morality binds and blinds”. Using the six foundations of morality derived from his research, we can gain a better understanding of “the righteous mind” that everyone has. This can help bridge political and religious divides and promote greater respect for opposing views.
