We can freely strive to treat the people we meet with respect and affirm their worth and dignity in daily interactions and call that living our faith…and we would be right to do so! We Unitarians have no real challenges in that vein, for our faith carries no outward symbols and places few demands or limitations on our actions.
Compared to other places in the world it’s not even too troubling for our Muslim sisters and brothers to live in peace here- though they face more resistance than the rest of us. Most of us get to live our faith in peace. Mostly, however, this living your faith thing is neither that stressful nor that public. That can seem daunting as visions of Jehovah’s Witnesses standing ignored in front of the Milner Library dance in your head. To identify with a religion, or even a set of values carries with it an expectation that we will live and even promote those values in our everyday lives.
