From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. The Religious Society of Friends describes a range of independent religious organizations which all trace their origins to a Christian movement in mid-17th century England and Wales. A central tenet was that ordinary people could have a direct experience of the eternal Christ, particularly as a teacher and guide. Today, the theological beliefs among the different organizations vary, but include broadly evangelical Christian, Orthodox Christian, liberal protestant, Christian universalist and non-Christian universalist beliefs. Within some groups, Friends meet for silent worship with no leader and no fixed program, where they await spiritual guidance directly from God. In other groups, Friends meet for services led by a pastor with readings and hymns. Other names used in some groups of Friends include Quakers and Friends Church. Some branches of the Religious Society of Friends are known to the general public today for testifying to their religious beliefs by refusing to participate in wars, and by social action, for instance on behalf of the environment and equal rights for all. In the past they were known for wearing particular clothing (plain dress); by using outdated modes of speech (thee and thou); and by refusing to swear oaths.

From Google News Search: "quaker" What is a good name for a green quaker parrot? Q. I am planning to get a baby quaker parrot and am trying to decide on a name. I have already considered some of the more obvious ideas like: sweet pea, mango, paco, tweety, polly, petey the parrot and kiwi. None of these seems quite right. I would like something clever like the name of a famous bird character from a Disney movie or something green. Thanks! Asked by Lou - Sat Sep 22 23:22:28 2007 - - 11 Answers - 1 Comments A. Oats.

Q. I got my quaker parrot about 2 weeks ago and he WILL not be quiet... especially in the mornings. I've tried to talk to him and sing to him, but he just doesn't seem to want to be social. When i try to get him on my finger, he just bites me. What can i do to get him to be tame? Asked by Matt P - Wed Oct 1 16:13:05 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. It worries me that you did not fully research quakers before bringing one home. If you've only had him 2 weeks he is not yet acustomed to his surroundings, you're fortunate he's noisier in the mornings, I'd be more concerned if he was quiet. Birds are very noisey, borderline obnoxious...but any experienced bird lover/owner knows this going into it. Good luck and don't give up on him too soon, it takes lots of time to bond and train a bird. Do NOT listen to the one who mentioned to cover him in the mornings, this should be done only at bed time, this is NEGLECT and could lead to even more bad behavior and self mutiliation.
