The Quaker was famous for pacifist or non violent and therefore Christ like laws.
They were very brave as in 1700 there were no peace promoting religions, to
forgive crime and killing was to be killed, so the Quakers were considered no
threat, and thrived until individual human rights became popular. That is one belief.
