The Quakers have always been right
We have machines that churn out infinite volumes of communications when what we need is more silence

I grew up knowing elderly Quakers who joined up in WWII precisely because they said sometimes there is no other way.

We need more Quakers damn it!

Now we know how the Quakers felt

Holding you in the Light, as we Quakers say -- from a retired lawyer in RI.

Les Quakers c'est la turbo-gauche wokiste, en général.

Quakers & Unitarians both precede the category honestly

Also a lot of the earliest eugenicists were Haverford grads, Quakers were really into it for a while

“The figure of the transatlantic Quaker that emerges from our surviving evidence is much closer to the image of the brutal missionary hypocrite . . . than the courageous moral activists of later Quaker hagiography.”
Quakers smash their abolitionist image
A new report examines how Quakers profited from transatlantic enslavement, marginalised early abolitionists, and theologically justified oppression

I could also see him joining a progressive Jewish temple or hanging with Quakers, but the librarian bit is oddly fitting

I do wish to be clear.

Quakers voted Against Slavery during the Continental Congress.

Quaker Women were Whipped in Colonial Streets to Humiliate Them from Meetings with Each Other.

Quakers Bought Slaves to Free Them, Signing Freedom Documents.

Anti-Racists were Out numbered.

I wouldn't judge everyone of any race or faith based on how some behave. That is the root of all hate.
Quakers were among the first to sue the administration and usually show up to protest injustices. They've long been involved in social/ political issues. Service is a major part of that faith.

Here are all of last night’s Marbury moths in 1 photo! 5/7 2 Feathered Thorns, 2 Red-line Quakers, Satellite, Figure of Eight and Dark Chestnut. Happy to get some as I expected none after seeing the car window iced up early! #teammoth

Leaves out Quakers, right?

In the only Ivy League WBB action of the day, Penn beat DIII Swarthmore 110-27. The Quakers ended the game on a 19-0 run.

14 Quakers played and 13 got 10+ mins. Four scored 10+ points, led by Tina Njike's 14 points and 6 rebounds in 15 mins. @theixsports.bsky.social #NCAAWBB

Is the Book of Revelation a terrifying vision of the future or a radical political manifesto? In this course you will get to know the most controversial book of the Bible, learn why it was so important to the early Quakers, and how to make sense of it in today’s world.

Puritins used to exile Quakers or execute them for witchcraft. That's why Rhode Island was founded. The founders were very aware of the possibility of sectarian violence and the repression of minority religions.

Jews have always been at the forefront of civil rights fights. Remember when Con/Reform/Lib/Recon Jews (religion not political parties lol) stood alongside Quakers and Unitarians to fight for Gay Marriage in the UK?

Zionists and Anti-Zionists both need to acknowledge it isn't "Jews" - it's Israel.

I believe some states had exceptions to their Militia laws for Quakers and other pacifists.

Awaiting Fran to stare down a ref.
