The Transcendentalists were radical thinkers. At the time of their meetings, New England was still holding on to a remnant of Puritanical values. There was a sense that organized religion had authority over one's personal life and individual choices. For the Transcendentalists, this was a big no-no! They were quite critical of conformity, or forcing one's behavior to match social expectations or standards. They were nonconformists - people who do not conform to a generally accepted pattern of thought or action. They rejected common ideas and practices, particularly organized religion. There wasn't a Transcendentalist church or a holy book of Transcendentalism. Instead, there were regular meetings for lively conversation and a shared hope of cultivating a modern, fluid, and personal sense of spirituality.

Local scientists believed that strange antibodies mixed with the chemicals made these zombie-like creatures. Some of us were lucky enough to not carry them. The Organization believed it was deign to talk to anyone outside our walls, that they could be infected too. At the time, everyone was an exponent of their ideas because we all wanted to survive.
