    Harmony, NC – Sex & Evolution: a Love Affair, a Communion

    Wild Goose Festival at Van Hoy Farms 738 Jericho Rd, Harmony, North Carolina, United States

    Sexuality has been around for a billion years. Why? Asexual reproduction (copying oneself) is faster, more efficient, less prone to errors and mutations, and safer. Sexuality offers only one evolutionary advantage, and it’s one that the Wild Goose community embraces whole-heartedly: diversity. With flowers as our sensual tour guides, Science Ambassador JD Stillwater takes us […]

    Lancaster, PA – Monkey Business: Jane Goodall & Other Animals

    UU Church of Lancaster, PA 538 W. Chestnut St., Lancaster, Pennsylvania, United States

    Humans are special, right? We have tools, language, self-awareness, morality … or are we? Jane Goodall’s impressive legacy includes rescuing the science of animal behavior from its own religion-based dogma. Knowing we evolved, is it really so surprising that our cousins have qualities we once thought unique to us? Stream Link.

    Glacier (Kalispell), MT – Defining Enough

    Glacier UU Fellowship, Kalispell, MT 1515 Trumble Creek Road, Kalispell, Montana, United States

    Blurb: Failure to define “enough” means never being satisfied. It makes us vulnerable to slick advertising, and fills our lives with tedium and chaos. It deflects our focus from sources of true happiness, like play, family, relationships, community. Ultimately, it also leads to the desecration of Earth’s living systems. Defining “enough” is a spiritual practice. […]
