| Summary: | Originally known as the Society of Friends, the Quakers were founded in the 1640’s by George Fox in England. This community was formed by men and women who were dissatisfied with the religious life of the various Reformed Churches. They emphasized an individual approach to religion, strict discipline, and the rejection of authoritarianism.They were oppressed because they would not attend the established worship, hold office, pay tithes, or bear arms. Due to these and other reasons they were fined, jailed, or even banished by English authorities. Quakers accentuated internal spiritual experiences rather than specific beliefs. They believed that they should get together in worship and wait until they were moved by the Holy Spirit. The society has authorized a considerable amount of freedom to its regional yearly meetings. The freedom has caused numerous worship and spiritual patterns. Differences of opinion among the Quakers over matters such as doctrine arose in the 19th century. The Quakers have always been a small group. Membership totalled about 300,000 in thirty countries at present |
