We were Seekers first, before we were Quakers,
after all, in the genetic origins of our Religious Society. But then,
we were also Ranters, in part. Both strands of thought in that
chaotic time of the mid-seventeenth century are seen in us, today.
There is even a soupçon of the Levellers and Diggers about our
origins, I am quite sure.
If we were Seekers, did we find, and stop Seeking?
To suppose that search is over strikes me as the most profound
religious hubris. So it is that we continue, as a group, to seek.
