Dennis invites us to explore the science of how humans perceive the world differently from animals and from other humans. We participate in a fun chemistry experiment and find many examples from a new book called “An Immense World” by Ed Yong (2022) to discover that what we thought we knew from our senses just ain’t necessarily so! The implications are vast and amazing as we progress through the mathematics of infinity, examples of perception among animals, and challenges to popular beliefs. From this new perspective we get fresh insights of the principles of Unitarian Universalism: search for Truth, worthiness of each of us, and justice without judgement.
This multigenerational Service will celebrate the winter holidays of Winter Solstice, Christmas, and Hanukkah! Told through the eyes of three young people and their families, we will learn about these traditions and how they are celebrated.
Song sermon by Julie Beutel, a local folk singer and song leader. “What it comes down to are the Little Things. Songs and quotes to inspire, get you thinking, (maybe singing), and remind us what really matters when it’s all said and done.”
