Thread Name: Quakers Held to a Higher Standard...
Subject: RE: Quakers Held to a Higher Standard...
The American Friends Service Committee can be counted on to help out in a flood or fire disaster, famine relief, or any rescue operation. They have a history of working to better the world through action and not just talk. They have my utmost admiration for opposing all war. They are classified by the US government as a "historic peace church" although they don't do church sermons.

Are they perfect? Who cares! They're great in what they accomplish.

They are social activists and that's OK in my book.

I worked in the AFSC warehouse shipping CARE packages to hungry children,
clothing and food.

So would anyone like to nominate somebody for purist human being of the year? :)
