Seeking an ally, the Oneida reaped little reward, as the British and other members of the Iroquois Confederation destroyed their villages for siding with the Americans. The Oneidans believed in Christian perfectionism, an ideology that spiritual purity and perfection was possible, they also believed that the second coming of Christ had already occurred in 70 AD. The Oneidas also believed that there is no marriage in Heaven, so every man was married to every woman and every woman was married to everyman. The movement was a religious movement that attempted to achieve "Heaven on Earth with religious and economic equality and perfection."]]> 2017-12-06 12:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213666636 msuminski https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213668787 2017-12-06 12:59:58 UTC https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213668787 msuminski https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213669918 2017-12-06 13:03:44 UTC https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213669918 nshaw4 https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213671810 Noyes was cousin to the 19th president, Rutherford B. Hayes. At the age of 20, Noyes went through a major religious conversion. Noyes once said, "My heart was fixed on the millennium, and I resolved to live or die for it." He graduated Dartmouth college and then attended Yale Theological Seminary to learn more about the bible. At Yale, Noyes came to the conclusion and was convinced that the second coming of Christ had already happened in 70 AD. Noyes married Harriet Holton. They had five children. After a few years, Noyes decided to live separately from his wife to study sexual relationships in marriage. Within a few years, th Oneida society was born. ]]> 2017-12-06 13:08:48 UTC https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213671810 nshaw4 https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213674191 2017-12-06 13:14:46 UTC https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213674191 msuminski https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213674679 Though different in their approach to religion, the Oneida did not have many long term effects. Their spiritual beliefs and practices were viewed as different from what was normal. In 1838, the Oneida relocated to New York with little land to call their own. Today, the Oneida have their own nation within Wisconsin with tribal sovereignty. They are officially recognized as a "domestic dependent nation" and the United States government cannot intervene with tribal matters. Although the religious movement of the Oneida was not widespread, it does still exist after being passed down through generations.]]> 2017-12-06 13:16:12 UTC https://padlet.com/nshaw4/p4gxqkjef7yp/wish/213674679
