Oh, I still attend the Church philosophy group which engages in metaphyical questions of course; and often there's a lot of discussion on comparative religions.

Still an apostate (that's an institutional label). Still agnostic.

The universalists are an interesting lot. Historically the unitarians were those religious radicals who believed in the primacy of reason. The universalists believed in the primacy of goodness. It was a deft combination to bring the two together.

Match it up with the aesthetically inclined and Socrates would be proud; truth, justice and beauty all under one roof!

Why bother identifying as a religion? Apart from the history (the ideas date back a long, long time) but also because there is a unifying metaphysic throughout - which of course you identified.
