  5. A quotation from Emerson

    Whoso would be a man, must be a nonconformist. He who would gather immortal palms must not be hindered by the name of goodness, but must explore if it be goodness. Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) American essayist, lecturer, poet
    Essay (1841), “Self-Reliance,” Essays: First Series, No. 2

  20. Richard Davis and Revival in #Northamptonshire – a review edintone.com/richard-davis-non Stephen Pickles’s book offers a valuable exploration of #nonconformist life beyond #London in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The book traces his influence from #Rothwell across a network of satellite meetings that extended into several regions of England. His effective ministry, published writings, and theological controversies left a lasting—if sometimes complex—legacy.

  24. Church or Chapel? edintone.com/church-or-chapel/ “Are you church or chapel?”

    It sounds like a small question today. But well into the twentieth century in England, it revealed a great deal about a person — their beliefs, their community, even their social identity. #church #chapel #nonconformist #ListedBuildings

  28. The STRAIGHT TALK: Enduring Bond Between Wales and Zionism – and Its Bitter Unravelling

    The intricate relationship between Wales, Judaism, and Zionism is explored through shared experiences of oppression and cultural survival. The voice from Wales champions the Jewish struggle for a homeland in Palestine, echoing principles of self-determination and solidarity. It highlights the moral responsibilities of nations to support one another while questioning the ethical decline in contemporary freedom movements.

  29. A quotation from Thoreau

    If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.

    Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) American philosopher and writer
    Walden; or, Life in the Woods, ch. 18 “Conclusion” (1854)

    Remembering Anne (Dudley) Bradstreet for International Women's
    Day.

    Many Americans will know that Anne was America's first poet to get into print, and in a big way too. What is not so widely known is Anne was probably born in #Northampton, England in 1612, the daughter of Thomas Dudley and Dorothy Yorke (married at Hardingstone, #northamptonshire in 1603). The Dudleys were a #Puritan #nonconformist family. #InternationalWomensDay

  38. I’m related to Elizabeth Taylor, not the actress, but a non-conformist born on 10 March 1735 in Westminster, London. Elizabeth and her husband John Teek were founder members of the Countess of Huntington’s Connexion, a society founded in 1783 by Selina Hastings, Countess of Huntington (pictured). Non-conformism is a strong trait in my family.

  44. Well, the ancestry-researching family members now tell me we’re descended from the last ever #Lollard burned at the stake and at least one other, slightly earlier.  Troublemakers, always.

    But it’s a little weird to find myself wondering whether they would be proud of me as a fellow #nonconformist , or would have hated me as a heretic and various words they didn’t have back then, like some other religous people have.  Or maybe, just maybe, some things weren’t distinctly reified then... 😶
