Home›Governance Practices›TraditionBrowse ByTraditionThis page groups practices by the culture that gives them their inherited meaning. Wikipedia notes that Roman religious cultus was "an activity fundamental to Roman identity even when Rome as a political center had become fully urbanized." Browsing by tradition lets a visitor read every practice belonging to one culture together, rather than finding them scattered by category.FactsTraditionSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedPractices 1TraditionFilter Results1 entryAdherents Today MaximumAll380,000 (1)Adherents Today MinimumAll380,000 (1)Basis of the Membership FigureAllChurch-Reported Rolls (1)Basis of the Wealth FigureAllRegulator Filing (1)Church FamilyAllQuaker (1)Date of Separation End YearAll1662 (1)Date of Separation Start YearAll1652 (1)Defining Doctrinal PositionAllRequires no subscription to a creed (1)GovernanceAllBusiness decided by the gathered meeting seeking unity, without clergy (1)How the Expectation Is EnforcedAllObligation to Support, No Set Rate (1)Liturgical LanguageAllThe vernacular (1)Membership Figure As OfAll2009-01-01 (1)2019-01-01 (1)OrdinationAllNo ordination; authority rests on learning or on the whole body (1)Varies between provinces or member bodies (1)Origin Period End YearAll1652 (1)Origin Period Start YearAll1647 (1)Place of OriginAllThe north of England (1)Position on MarriageAllNo single uniform teaching on marriage's terms holds across the body (1)Position on SexualityAllThe body holds no single settled position; the question is actively and openly contested within it (1)Relation to the StateAllNo Establishment (1)Status TodayAllLiving tradition, practised today (1)Wealth Figure As Of YearAll2024 (1)Show ResultsQuakerism (Religious Society of Friends)Tradition1 entrySources1.
