Thread Name: BS: The Quakers
Subject: RE: BS: The Quakers
Being a Quaker Woman is quite an interesting take on the whole thing. The idea of equality of genders within the Quakers is refreshing I find.

I have attended several Friend's meetings and seldom did I ever come away without something being answered. It's quite a magical experience and it's spiritual significance can be far reaching. The whole non-judgemental approach is as exhilarating and helpful for anyone with faith as it is for those who have doubts, like me, but still have a spirituality they wish to examinine.

While generally being thought of as a Christian religion, one does not have to be a Christian. I have yet to meet a Quaker who did not have something 'peaceful' going on with them. I totally respect how and what they are.
