One of the things I like about our Quaker bunch is that they don't ask questions about what people believe. It's obvious, from what people have said, that most people there believe in some sort of God-ness, and that people see it in different ways, ranging from the ineffable divine in every living thing to the great big grandpa in the sky. Community creation is a completely central part of it, which is emphatically not true of my experience of Roman Catholic and Anglo-Catholic churches.
(I get really, really angry with people who claim that prayer or God rescues holy people and that by implication the people who aren't rescued are somehow less valuable or worthy. And with people who say "Ah well, to avoid [this disaster] you should have [done something now impossible without a time machine].)
