I prefer the religion I practice, as there’s no deities, or saints to worship, no religious leaders to obey or tell me what to believe, no ceremonies I need to perform, nor any days to celebrate or commemorate.

Barry, you need to put some life into your religious practices. Include special days. Special ceremonies and all ๐

I realise that. I was trying to get a rise out of you. I should have added an appropriate emoji to indicate that ๐
Besides, having spent the last 360 years proclaiming “God” means whatever you choose it to mean, and that theology, clergy, ceremonies and special days distracts one from practicing one’s religion, it would be rather strange to throw away all that tradition.

Definitely. That is such a great tradition one that is hardly to lead to schism that befalls the church every where you turn.
Here, I see a lot of break out churches with each now splinter claiming the mother church had lost its way or something close to that though they don’t mention that it was about money.

That is such a great tradition one that is hardly to lead to schism Sshh. In America, some quakers decided the Bible had more authority than one’s personal experience and caused a major schism that still exists several hundred years later. They decided to introduce clergy, creeds and proselytising – all anathema to Quaker tradition. They are perhaps the most “successful” branch of Quakerism as their proselytising in Latin America and Africa brought in many followers. Today most Quakers in Africa, and the Americas are evangelical Christians, while those in the UK, Europe, Asia, and Oceana are not. We’re now a distinct minority making up somewhere around ten or twelve percent of Quakers. On the other hand Mak, Kenya contains around a third of all Quakers worldwide – all members of an evangelical, fundamentalist, hierarchical. patriarchal church.
Human nature, being what it is, will result in schisms, no matter what the ideology – religion, politics, economic theory, and anything else that is essentially subjective in nature. The problem is that there’s always those who become convinced that their subjective views are objective, so therefore anyone who disagrees with them must be wrong, or worse – evil. This certainly applies to religious fundamentalism, and at times it seems much of the world falls into a similar mindset. The current Republican Party in the US is very good example.

I didnโt know there were so many Quakers here. However, I am not surprised that they are fundamentalist and all. It is hard to find liberal Christians here.

There’s somewhere between 300,000 and 400,000 Quakers worldwide. 130,000 are in Kenya. You can thank American evangelical Quaker missionaries of the 19th century who who ignored our tradition of not proselytising for that number.
