Had a chat with some people, was noted that Quakers are not evangelical whilst New Athiests are. People make snarky jokes about vegans for their evangelicalism. To what extent is it hard to be likeable when you think other people should believe what you do? To what extent is it better to spread ideologies by actions not words?
Are there any ways EA culture can improve? Big things to start, big things to stop?
Minor factual point that the more left-y type of Quakers you’ve probably encountered are not evangelical, but there are evangelical branches of Quakerism, and for this reason the country with the most Quakers is Kenya.
