Quakers Summary An English religious sect ca. 1644-1660 known for their radical social theology. The Quakers had a major impact on English society during the Interregnum. After the Restoration (1660) the sect redirected itself and its efforts to a more internal enlightenment of the individual. Quakerism had it beginnings in the North of England. It was based on the outgrowth of the personal insights of George Fox (1624-1691) . Fox was born in Drayton-in-the-Clay, Leicestershire. Fox was apprenticed as a shoemaker. Between 1643-47, Fox went through his own religious conversion to find the "inner light" within himself. From his early experiences George Fox developed a new set of religious values based on the idea that all men were equal in the spirit of God. Some have suggested possible influences from early Baptists writings. Fox gathered small groups of religious converts from the Leicestershire area ca. 1644. These groups formed the early basis for his meetings of "Friends". Other groups were formed in Warwickshire ca. 1645, in Nottinghamshire ca. 1646, and in Derbyshire ca. 1647. Fox was imprisoned in Nottingham during 1649. Arrested under the Blasphemy Law in 1650, Fox was sent to prison in Derby. He spoke out against the vain and worldly practices that he saw in society. He also spoke about the coming Day of Judgment.

Beliefs of the Quakers (Shaking Quakers, Shakers, Friends) Doctrine: This paper documents the belief system of historical Quakers. Modern Quakers, like most Pentecostals, are all over the map in doctrine.) Quakers (Friends) beliefs are a little hard to quantify, since Friends do not believe in having a fixed Creed or Dogma, but rather in seeking for the leadings of God within ourselves. Some generalizations are possible however: Some, but not all Quakers, view the doctrine of Jesus' and the virgin birth as nonessential and not accepted as fact. Primacy of "feelings" over scripture as source of testing doctrine. Acceptance of any document as valid for doctrine, i.e. Tao Te Ching, Koran, etc. (Society of Friends) Some, but not all Quakers are Unitarian Universalists (by their own description) (i.e. all religions and beliefs are correct and of equal value.) Great manifestations including trembling and shaking. George Fox saw himself as an apostle restoring the true church. George Fox in 1658 AD. What to Quakers Historically Believe The Quakers started in England the 17 th Century by George Fox. George Fox asked his friend and Quaker Theologian Robert Barclay to write an Apology of the Quaker Faith, which he did. Robert Barclay also wrote a catechism on the Quakers Faith using as answer Book only the Holy Scriptures. Following are the doctrinal believes he and Friends until the schism believed in. Conservative or Wilburite Friends still hold this Faith today, therefore are the true Society of Friends.

skip to main skip to sidebar Beeston Quakers Quakers are united by concerns for truth, peace, equality, justice and simplicity. They look for that of God in everyone. Thursday, 29 May 2008 Report from the protest Posted by Rhiannon I attended yesterday's protest in support of Hicham Yezza and academic freedom (in no particular order; for details of the events which led to this protest, see my previous post ). We began, in the pouring rain, with academics and students reading the document which, downloaded and emailed, led to the inital arrests. I have to say, it seems to be very stirring stuff, from what I heard through the rain: if you're holding a secret meeting in new house, remember that the walls are thin so keep your voice down. If you want to recruit a new agent, find out what they'd like before deciding what to offer them. Try talking to people who work in coffee shops. We were then addressed by Alan Simpson MP, who in a moment of daring spoke from the forbidden balcony of the Hallward Library. He actually spoke very wellgathering lots of applausetelling us that he too objected to the way things have been handled, especially the time it took to establish that the download was legitimate research. He made it sound like he is doing everything he can to help, though not knowing what's possible I find it hard to judge the truth of this. Finally, we marchedsilently, gagging ourselves to make visible the silence and suggest that we are being silenced by this attack on academic freedom, and also because it's still exam timeround the Portland building to Trent

BREEDING QUAKER PARAKEETS by Linda Greeson For a first time experience in breeding birds, for a step up for the Budgie breeder, or for anyone looking for a new experience, I can wholeheartedly recommend Quaker Parakeets. They are exceptionally hardy small birds, are very prolific, and make excellent parents. There is a continuing and ever increasing demand for this species in the pet market which helps to maintain a stable price. Since the life span of a Quaker is 35 to 40 years, the investment made in them is a long term one. One reservation in this enthusiastic endorsement is the amount of noise even a few pairs of Quakers can generate. A large flock would certainly destroy the peace and quiet of a residential neighborhood. Even in attics, garages, and basements sophisticated soundproofing mechanisms will be taxed. Kept singly, or even as one pair, they are not exceptionally noisy at all. Unfortunately there are at present ten states with restrictions placed either on breeding, keeping as pets, importation over state lines, or varying combinations of these restrictions. These regulations seem to change rather frequently and are enforced with widely varying degrees of severity. Before embarking on any program of breeding Quakers it is wise to contact the Department of Agriculture in your state for current local regulations. The Quaker, or Monk Parakeet, M. Monachus Monachus, has a total length of eleven to twelve inches. It has a stocky, sturdy build. The soft green of the body is relieved by gray in the chest, cheeks, and throat. The flight feathers are blue. Their distinctive, mischievous personalities and strong bonding to their human owners contributes to the ever increasing popularity of this species. Their ability to talk clearly and perfect large vocabularies is surpassed only by a few of the larger parrots.

38. Quakers. The Society Of Friends In Victorian Britain Since quakers understand the spiritual life in entirely inward terms, they do not employ sacraments or other outward forms in worship. http://www.victorianweb.org/religion/quakers.html

Quakers. The Society of Friends in Victorian Britain Suzanne Keen, Professor of English, Washington and Lee University Victorian Web Home Authors Religion Origins. Founded in England in the seventeenth century by George Fox (1624-1691), the Society of Friends is a radical (pacifist) Protestant sect with roots in the period of the English revolution. Their quaint-sounding thees and thous, and their practice of keeping hats on indoors derive from George Fox's determination not to make signs of obeisance to any man, including the king. Since Quakers understand the spiritual life in entirely inward terms, they do not employ sacraments or other outward forms in worship. Inward Light. The doctrine of the Inward Light justifies Quakers' speech as the prompting of the Spirit. As any member may be "moved by the Spirit" to witness, all members at meeting for worship are potential ministers, and Quaker women preached or spoke in meeting from early days, eliciting Dr. Johnson's remark: Sir, a woman preaching is like a dog walking on its hind legs. It is not done well; but you are surprised to find it done at all. More positive views of Quaker worship can be found in Charles Lamb's essay, "A Quakers' Meeting" (

Conservative Quakers Conservative Quaker Forum Conservative Quakers are Christian members of the Religious Society of Friends who meet together to worship in silent expectant waiting upon the Lord without the need of planned sermons, prearranged music, or paid ministers. "Conservative Friends maintain most of the Quaker distinctives, including unprogrammed worship and an explicitly Christ-centered theology." from "Cheerfully Over the World - a Handbook for Isolated Friends" a publication and ministry of FWCC "A Christian is defined as 'A disciple, or follower of Christ. One whose profession and life conform to the teaching and example of Christ.'" From A BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF THE PRINCIPLES AND TESTIMONIES OF THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETY OF FRIENDS WITH MINUTES OF ADOPTION FROM The Yearly Meetings OF New England, Canada, Ohio, Western, Iowa, Kansas and North Carolina ADOPTED 1912 the Presence in the Midst "... worship is a personal communion with God and a yielding of our wills to the Divine Will for which no ritual, form, service nor aid of clergy is necessary. ... Worship should not be the mere outward gathering of persons, but an inward gathering of hearts unto the Lord. Our worship is based on the eternal reality that God is Spirit and the experience of worship must be in Spirit and in Truth." From Fairhope Friends Meeting - Book of Discipline "We meet together in silence and strive to free our minds and hearts for the purpose of spiritual worship." From Ohio Yearly Meeting - Book of Discipline
