The more I learn about #Quakers, the more I have come to respect them. 👍

In 1945, thousands of German refugee children were living in camps in Denmark.
Danes had spent years under German occupation. Helping those refugees was not a popular position to take.
Quakers such as Elise Thomsen chose to help anyway - a reminder that compassion is often easiest in principle and hardest in practice.
David Rovics wrote a song about Elise Thomsen's work in post-war Denmark:

Modern society tends to imagine only two ways of organising human life: control or chaos.
What interested me while writing this piece is how both Quakerism and anarchism push against that binary in surprisingly similar ways.

Working through Pope Leo's encyclical on Artificial Intelligence. About halfway through it and really enjoying it so far and learning a ton about Catholic Social Doctrine.
The goal is to finish & write a theological response Quaker Religious Thought for June.

Historically, even modest challenges to hierarchy have often been treated as dangerous ideas.
My latest post explores the overlap between anarchism and Quakerism beyond the stereotypes: consensus, participation, conscience, mutual aid, and distrust of concentrated power.

Attention is becoming harder to hold.
Most of us move through the day reacting. Messages arrive, feeds refresh, and something is always demanding focus.
Quaker practice creates space to pause and listen carefully. That can mean listening to other people, to ourselves, or simply sitting quietly for a while without needing to fill the silence.
Sometimes clarity comes from giving something more time before responding.

I've meant for some time to properly check out #Quakers, the Society of Friends. Now a post I read has nudged me into it.
Now I'd like to find Quakers I can learn more from. Just interest — I'm already happy with God, and my relationship with Her. Are there any Friends here?
