[NTF-talk] 'Nontheist Friends' ' article in Wikipedia, new interesting definition in "back end" of Wikidata (continued) ... 


Nontheist Quakers, NtFs, Friends, All, 

Regarding wiki World Univ & Sch - which doesn't have a Wikidata Q-item # yet (but where CC-4 MIT OCW does - https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1637597 related to - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_OpenCourseWare) -

If you know of any Friendly 18 year olds, or Friends who have relatively recently completed their Bachelor's degree - or if you - might be interested in free-to-students' PhD or 4 year Bachelor degree programs, I've just reached out to WUaS prospective students with . . . 

"Please send http://ocw.mit.edu and https://oyc.yale.edu/ courses you'd like to take in your 1st year beginning 9/1/21 for #WUaSFreeToStudents' online #WUaSPhDdegrees to start.

Sincerely, Scott"

. . . in the 5/15/21 WUaS Monthy Business Meeting Minutes here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/05/araripe-manakin.html (loosely conducted in the Manner of unprogrammed Quakers). Please let Friends you may know of looking for such an opportunity about these great free CC-3 Yale-centric and CC-4 MIT-centric OpenCourseWare developments . 

Friendly regards, 
Scott

Could Liberal Religious Youth (LRY), of UUA persuasion, have created a remarkable kind of communitas and connecting in the 1960s and '70s thanks to a cultural shift?


I'd think that Liberal Religious Youth (LRY), of UUA persuasion, created a remarkable kind of communitas and connecting in the 1960s and '70s thanks to a cultural shift, and new ways of opening to or facilitating religious connecting, which was somehow liminal as 'betwixt and between,' out of the realm of the modern workaday world, in brand new ways, - thanks even to alternative thinking and counterculture perhaps :). 

A life partner out of this stream of life? :) But how to meet and connect?

Warmly,
Scott

Dear Ma, Dick, Ed, Matt, All,


A life partner out of a LRY tradition (UUA) somehow? :)

I just learned that LRY - Liberal Religious Youth - of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), active it seems in the 1960s and 1970s, ended about 1981 or '82 ... having blogged about them here on Sunday - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/05/psittacula-non-theist-quakers-psychiatry.html - and regarding the terms 'Little Red Yogis,' as well (which Kevin Bell, around 1981-82, had called Little Red Yogis, in the Brooklyn Street House which his sister Diane owned, and which I lived in on and off from around 1980 to 1987, I think, and which was a Reed collective, or Reed House, - and see above blog post ) ... 
https://www.uuworld.org/articles/liberal-religious-youth-merged-fifty-years-ago (I wasn't ever part of LRY interestingly - having not been part of the UU Church in Pgh from 1974-79 - perhaps due to my father's thinking, and having also not been part of a UU Church in the DC Area before that (1971-73/74), or in New Haven CT (from 1966-1971 or so) either ... although my parents met and married, in 1957, in the UU Church in Cincinnati, OH, and my mother's parents were very long-time UUs there). 

I'd think LRY were a very exploratory group of UU-circle hippy young people in a fascinating time - the '60s and '70s - around the world, and especially in the USA, culturally, regarding creative alternative cultural explorations ... 

And apparently LRY has become ... 

A life partner out of a LRY background, I wonder? A MD who is 25 and has time in her life to have kids too? ... But I am also a bit 'old fashioned' or 'traditional' in relationships ... 2 terms a family friend George Alexander MD used re life partner (like his standing by The Desiderata below - which I find illuminating, and re World Univ & Sch too)  ... Identity questions - many here - for me too, I think ...

How are you doing? 

Fondly, Scott

PS
And as I just wrote to my friend, Ed: (And will we be able to genetically engineer ourselves back to being 30 year olds at some point in the not too distant future, which video observation by George Church I haven't yet found again?:) Looking forward to seeing you, and exploring somewhere soon-ish on a hike :)


Desiderata: 


Desiderata

GO PLACIDLY amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Thank you - after emailing you, I haven't observed this again.

Dear Peter, 

I just tried to access my blog on my Google Pixela smartphone, and I got a new red screen saying 

"Deceptive site ahead

Attackers on scott-macleod.blogspot.com may trick you into doing something dangerous like installing software or ... 
Learn more

Back to safety 

Details"


I clicked details - as well as a new ' enhanced security' button in one attempt at dealing with this - and from 'Hide details,' I can then click 'visit this unsafe site.' 

I don't think people read my blog that much, but for those that might be reading it - especially since I just emailed out the "5/15/21 WUaS Monthly Business Meeting Agenda & News" -  and I'd like for any readers not to be getting such a red screen too. Is there anything I can do to change it back to the way it was before? Could you help me with this please?

 It just seems to happen on my smartphone (and I've only tried scott-macleod.blogspot.com  - and not yet - worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com).

Thank you, thank you, thank you, if you can help rectify this coding situation.


Sincerely, Scott
