Am I alone in disliking responsive readings? It's not just the UU church, I didn't like them in the church I grew up in, either. It's not the readings I mind, it's the way they are read by the congregation in a monotone. I would rather hear one speaker read the excerpt with a meaningful presentation, than hear 50 voices read in a monotone. I have tried reading my parts in a dramatic voice, but then I just sound like I'm on something. :D
I know it's a small thing, and it doesn't detract from my overall love for the UU church. I just wondered if I was the only one. :D
