Summary
The writer discusses the historical practice of early Friends going naked in public as a sign of faith and challenges the modern-day Quaker community to reflect on their own faith and spiritual practices. The article explores the lack of shared language and symbols in modern Quakerism and the impact this has on the community's ability to communicate and understand each other's spiritual experiences.
