eeting time: Sundays at 10:30 As a group, Quakers:* See the spiritual and the secular life as a single continuum, the one illuminating and sustaining the other. * Welcome modern science and seek to take its findings into account, revising traditional beliefs accordingly. * Take the Scriptures seriously, but examine them critically in the light of modern science, Biblical scholarship, and practical experience. * Have a strong sense of the Transcendent, of Divinity, but refuse to be dogmatic about its nature. * See theology as a necessarily imperfect attempt to describe the Transcendent, and are therefore modest about their own Quaker affirmations, and respectful of those of others. * Seek to be continually open to new insights, believing that all people may be open to Divine revelation, which continues to be a source of fresh enlightenment today. * See all human beings as embodying something of the Divinity, and hence of immeasurable worth - and hold the earth's environment in special reverence as something to preserve, protect, and respect as part of Creation * Shun outward forms of piety, believing that "by their fruits you shall know them." * Tend to give special attention and consideration to downtrodden and oppressed individuals or groups, seeking to address that of the Divine in them and that which is oppressive in the social system.
