Detailed explanation-1: -There are no sacraments, music or dress code. The only universal belief is that ‘there is that of God in everyone’; there is no definition of what the word God means, and many now use the word Spirit or Light.
Detailed explanation-2: -Quakers neither practise baptism nor celebrate the Eucharist. They don’t regard some activities as more sacred than others, nor do they believe that any particular ritual is needed to get in touch with God, so they do not believe in the sacraments practised in mainstream Christian churches.
Detailed explanation-3: -Quakers rejected elaborate religious ceremonies, didn’t have official clergy and believed in spiritual equality for men and women. Quaker missionaries first arrived in America in the mid-1650s. Quakers, who practice pacifism, played a key role in both the abolitionist and women’s rights movements.
