Like Diane, I don't self-identify as Christian (I consider myself post-Christian). Even so, I've found myself greatly influenced by Quaker tradition. I love the traditional mode of worship, emphasizing the priesthood of the individual. It's one of the things that struck me, alongside the commitment to the social gospel (including civil rights). I also like the emphasis on simplicity, and the theological openness. I'm not big on dogma, so that's important to me. I discovered the Quakers after returning to Unitarian Universalism (I was raised attending a UU church), and have since blended the two somewhat.
