What do Quakers believe about supernatural things that some other Christians believe in - such as miracles and divine healing and prophesy and tongues and suchlike?

Collectively Quakers are not required or expected to hold any particular belief. Therefore it is as inaccurate to say, for example, all Quakers believe in the existence of God, as it is to say that no Quaker believes in The existence of a God. However, as there are different branches of Quakerism, similar to other religions, it is likely that within one or other of the branches it is more likely that most Quakers belief or don't believe in any particular thing. It is likely that most Quakers belief that in collective and gathered worship all are likely to experience an understanding of the essentials of spiritual life.
