About Quakerism:
- Quakers believe that there is something of God in everybody and that each human being is of unique worth. This is why Quakers try to value all people equally.
- Quakers seek religious truth in inner experience, and place great reliance on conscience as the basis of morality.
- Quakers emphasise direct experience of God rather than ritual and ceremony. They believe that priests and rituals are an unnecessary obstruction between the believer and God.
- Quakers integrate religion and everyday life. They believe God can be found in the middle of everyday life and human relationships, as much as during a meeting for worship.
