What was one pillar of faith in the shaker community

One pillar of faith in the Shaker community was celibacy.

Explanation:

Shakers are a Protestant Free Church sect that originated in England.  Their doctrine assumes sexual dualism with God, revealed in Jesus and Mother Ann. Celibacy was required, as was Christian Communism and faith in Christ's second coming. In 1776, they bought land in Watervliet in the state of New York, and founded a community there. Until the mid-1800s, they founded a number of thriving communities in the states of Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, New York, Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Massachusetts.

As shakers lived in celibacy, the movement could only survive through recruitment. It appeared that shakers adopted orphans, but it was banned in 1960. During the 20th century, fewer and fewer people joined, and today there are only a few shakers left.

after a more than a decade and a half of combating al qaeda (aq) in afghanistan and pakistan,

the united states faces a diverse array of threats from al qaeda affiliates in the middle east and

africa. while senior al qaeda figures reportedly remain based in pakistan, the network includes

a number of affiliates across the middle east and africa including al qaeda in the arabian

peninsula (aqap), al qaeda in the islamic maghreb (aqim), and al shabaab. al qaeda also

retains a small but possibly growing presence in afghanistan. u.s. officials have stated that al

qaeda still maintains a foothold in syria through its ties to hay’at tahrir al sham (formerly

known as the nusra front), though the exact nature of that relationship may be evolving. this

report examines the threat posed by al qaeda affiliates in the middle east and africa as described

by u.s. officials and outside observers, as well as the u.s. approach to date in responding to these

threats. this was all i could find hope this : )

the answer is c have a good day
