"Thou," not "You" for "Du" edit
I've changed the article to show that "du" is equivalent to "thou," not "you." It is erroneous to think that "you" would be familiar- at this time, "you" was the respectful term in English, paralleling the continental custom of addressing superiors with the second-person plural. Thus, the Quakers made a point of addressing each other as "thou," not "you," for the same reason as the German pietists. In contemporary everyday English, "you" eventually supplanted "thou" completely, because no one wanted to appear disrespectful of anyone by addressing him as "thou."

Radical Pietism vs. Pietism edit
That there were some radicals among the pietists does not warrant their separation into a separate page. A very similar movement, the Anabaptist movement, does not have a similar page. I suspect this page for radical pietists has been set up for the sake of putting distance between someone's group and the more radical elements in their heritage. This article should be integrated into the main article on Pietism. That said, prominent Brethren historian Carl Bowman does use the term. [1] Ciacg (talk) 04:39, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
