I suspect that this is a new "frame" to proscribe what is currently being demeaned as "secularism". From a Quaker perspective what G-d looks like depends on...
By way of a start, there's this: Aquinas (building solidly on Greek thought but apparently also thinking of the same passage from Paul that gave us Quakers...
