A. I am not sure if this is what you are looking for or not The Oneida Society (Oneida Community) was a commune founded by John H. Noyes in 1848 near Oneida, New York. The community followed the beliefs of Noyes including Communism (in the sense of communal property and possessions), 'Complex Marriage', 'Male Continence', 'Mutual Criticism' and 'Ascending Fellowship'. There were initially some forty-five members to the community. The community grew slowly (72 members by February of 1850, 205 by February of 1851, and 306 members by 1878) but had a complex bureaucracy of twenty-one committees and forty-eight administration departments. There were smaller communities in Wallingford, Newark, Putney, Cambridge, and Manlius for a short time. The… [cont.]

A. well its kinda bad but my history professor told us that they believed women should be married to all men. They believed in communal wives and in the middle of mass if they felt the spirit of christ within they were to pick a girl and go upstairs and sleep with her. sorry it sounds bad but thats just what he told us.

A. From: Britannica Concise Encyclopedia | Date: 2007 | Copyright 1994-2008 Encyclopedia Britannica, Inc. Utopian religious community founded by John H. Noyes in Oneida, N.Y., in 1848. Noyes, who believed that the Second Coming of Jesus Christ had occurred in 70, and his disciples formed their first religious society in Putney, Vt., in 1841 in order to establish the millennial kingdom. Their practice of complex marriage, according to which each adult community member was married to each adult of the opposite sex, aroused the hostility of the townspeople, and they were obliged to move to Oneida. The Oneida group lived communally and flourished for 30 years, supporting itself by farming and manufacturing steel traps, silverware, and… [cont.]

Why has every presidential assassin been either apolitical or liberal?
Q. Every presidential assassin in the history of the nation has been a liberal or has had no politics at all. None were right-wingers. Actor/Activist John Wilkes Booth shot President Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865, because he was opposed to Lincoln s Republican war policies. Booth, the Tim Robbins of his day, left a letter with his family explaining his actions, saying he loved peace more than life and denouncing Republicans for foisting the war on the South. He may have even used the word Quagmire to describe Gettysburg. Charles J. Guiteau, who shot President James Garfield in 1881, had a long relationship with a utopian commune called tThe Oneida Community, where free love and communal child-rearing were practiced.

Ok I REALLY need some hint on what to do!?
Q. Hey everyone, I have a test tomorrow and this question is probbly going to be on the test. List three utopian communities and three humanitariam reform movements in the Jacksonian era. Pick one from each group and compare their approaches to reform. I know three utopian communites (Shakers, New harmony, and Oneida. I'm writing on the shakers) But I don't have a clue as to what "humanitarian reform" movements to write about! Can you help?
Asked by M&M - Wed Nov 12 17:02:07 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. One humanitarian "reform" during the Jacksonian era is the expansion of the right to vote to all white men; this was a reform during this era as only landowners were allowed to vote before then. Before this change, most states required a person to own a certain amount of property or be worth a certain amount of money before they had the right to vote - this policy excluded the poor (specifically poor white men, since minorities and women still did not have the right to vote) from participating in the political process. I can't think of any other social reforms during that era, however.

Q. why did pre civil war utopian communities fail? examples-Robert owen's New Harmony Brook farm John Noyes' Oneida
Asked by arsenal - Fri Feb 8 17:54:43 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. A utopian society can never exist for long because there are so many people and each person is of a different mind. If there was such a thing as a utopian society it could never move forward and progress, and that is the very thing that is needed for a society to function. Imagine that everyone has the same opinion. Yes, no one would argue, but then there can be no other way around and thus, no progress. the only real way a utopian society could exist is if newborn babies where born into the society and raised with their rules and never seeing outside influence. there is a book you can read to help you with it, it's a kid's book (about third or fourth grade) about a girl who is raised in a colonial town, only to escape and realize… [cont.]
