Same here.

Been for awhile. My grandparents were Quaker, but my parents aren't.

Well the new "asshole" sect would probably put it in line with mainstream Christianity.

I struggle with my "Quakerness" due to money/possessions usually.

But yeah, my grandparents were from a line of Quakers which went back as far as Penn.

(I became Quaker through Tolstoy's book "The Kingdom of God is Within You".)

I was thinking, "being an asshole when people deserve it but not because their beliefs differ from yours sect." But I do see the point.
