Overview
What Defines This Grouping
Standing commitments a tradition treats as conduct rather than as rite - non-injury, refusal of a medical procedure on doctrinal grounds, the provision of ceremony and pastoral care without religious content. The grouping is defined by the absence of a ritual form rather than by a shared ethic, and its members do not agree with one another. 2
