Dave Johnson's Religious Stuff
I have been a Quaker since 1987. My wife dragged me to my first Meeting.
Having come from California, and hearing about `meditation', I was worried that
Meeting would consist of a bunch of New-Age people chanting mantras.
But that is not what Meeting is about. I was surprised that I found such a spiritual home as a Quaker, but I have.
What are Quakers?
A good question. I'll work on a real answer later. For now, I can provide some pointers to other Quaker sites.- Quaker Web Site This site is maintained by Russ Nelson, and is pretty comprehensive.
- Friends General Conference, 1996
- Peaceweb
- American Friends Service Committee
- Friends' Committee on National Legislation Contains `alerts' about pending legislation and suggestions to encourage our representatives to take Friends' concerns into account during their deliberations.
