[quote=Anonymous]The hostility on this thread is offensive. I grew up as a member of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers was a derogatory nickname which over time has come into use by the community, but most I know Quakers refer to themselves as Friends). A core belief is that there is the light of God in everyone, and no one is closer to God than anyone else. Everyone's relationship is directly with God and should happen without mediation by a priest or minister. The emphasis is on simplicity and stripping out false ornamentation and distractions. It is Christian but quite different than other Christian denominations in the method of practice. Go visit! Visitors are always welcome.[/quote]
