Very much like what Ron posted, actually. Unitarian Universalist appears to be pretty much like 'organized atheism'.

Quote:
Rev. Peter Boullata of the First Unitarian Congregation of Toronto summed it up succinctly in saying, "Our living faith has its beginnings as an organized religious movement in the sixteenth century. Unitarianism has deep roots in the radical wing of the Protestant Reformation. Today, our movement embraces a diversity of theological and philosophical outlooks, including religious humanism, earth-centred spirituality, and naturalistic theism as well as an appreciation of our Christian and Jewish heritage.
"Our basis of union is not one of doctrine. Thus there is no requirement for members to all think alike or to believe the same things. Rather, ours is a fellowship of mutual support that encourages thoughtfulness, freedom of conscience and the transforming power of love. As a religious movement without a creed that everyone must adhere to, individuals are free to search for truth and meaning within a caring and supportive community. We care deeply about our world, too, and are involved in efforts to actualize our humanitarian values in this city, in Canadian society, and in the global sphere."
