Quakers belong to a religious organization called the Society of Friends. They don't believe in wars or anything, they believe in peace. They also believe that all men are created equal, no matter what they look like. They think that women and men are equal, too. They think that you don't need a churchbuilding, Bible, or minister to worship God. They think you can do that without those things. i reccomend that you google it.

i forgot the guy who started it. but he started up the state of rhode island because eventhough young america said that they had freedom from prejudice on religious beliefs, there had been people against the quaker religion... and its another denomination of christianity basically a belief system on the holy spirit and whatnot

They are the society of friends, all people are equal and accepted. They are against war and refuse to fight. They didn't own slaves, women were equal and gay people are accepted
