    Quakers were some anti authority religious minority (Christian) in Scotland/England. They were notorious for their lack of respect. E.g. used “thy” instead of the formal you. (English changed since then and the informal thy fell out of use)

      Quakers were

      Are. They’re still around. Still a relatively big minority Christian group in the UK.

      Still everyone’s favourite Christian denomination. Cool bunch.
