I find Unitarian Universalism appealing (and intellectually stimulating) but I always struggle with how overly political some of these movements become.

I don't mean that we shouldn't stand up for human rights, I mean that I take issue with both sides of the political spectrum and lean post-modernist (i.e. distrusting of the government's inherent desire for power and control).

Most philosophically liberal-leaning people I know are hardcore Democrat, but I personally have my concerns about their agendas as well as the Republicans (albeit in multiple ways I find the Republicans worse than the Democrats).

Maybe someone could help me out on this. I would appreciate it.
