Quakers

I would like to take a break from going to my usual Episcopal church and check out some Quaker meetings. I plan to do this either within the next few weeks or when I start college in the fall...so, can anyone give me a heads up on what Quaker meetings are like?

This thread will also be open to discussion on Quaker ideology/practices/etc

Wait a second. Are you implying that people follow Quaker like a religion? I thought they just made my oatmeal.

They follow the Religion of Oatmeal of course.

They never have sex either because they reproduce through budding.

I know a large community of quakers and not one of them seems to take their religion seriously, basically none of them believe in god and they all just go to meeting to socialise and organise orgies.


-.-




they have a hole fucking meeting house devoted to this, and like non seem to take it seriously.

In fact come to think of it, one of the other ardent atheists in my religious studies class is "quaker".

Maybe this is just these select individuals but they have national meetings here they all just do this same shit.

:/

maybe its better in america eh.

You serious? Quakers definitely believe in God. Maybe they don't all take it seriously (you'll find people who don't take it seriously in all religions and denominations of religions I think) but the core ideology of the Society of Friends (that's the proper name isn't it?) is to believe in God and find your inward Christ.
