Casey speaks on Taoism

Peninsula Daily News reporter Jim Casey will be the speaker at Olympic Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 73 Howe Road, Agnew, at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 13.

Casey describes Taoism as being centered in nature, free from most religious trappings and reproachful of compulsive action — which could sound like a spiritual float trip down the Sol Duc River. He has studied the Tao Te Ching for more than 20 years and has been a member of UU fellowships and churches since 1995.
