Just wondering if anyone knew of a Unitarian or theologically liberal English-speaking church that's accessible by the Seoul Subway. I've been to an English-speaking church with a co-worker where the music was great, but the preacher was an anti-intellectual fire-and-brimstone type. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry to bore all the atheists, but a certain high-church agnostic who doesn't believe this stuff can't stop doing it.

I`d be heck of a lot more inclined to attend church service if there was a more honest & open discussion of church history including:


i ) Gnosticism

ii ) The Dead Sea Scrolls

iii) The impact Plato & the Greeks had on early christianity

iv) Jesus` Missing years

v ) The influence Buddhism had on Christ`s philosophy



Any fellowships out there which embrace these topics ??? If there are i`d naturally like to hear about it.

Should be right up the Unitarians' alley - so long as they're not too busy meditating. No. iii is of particular interest to me.
