Oneida Society



The Oneida Community was a utopian commune founded by John Humphrey Noyes in 1848 in Oneida, New York. The community believed that since Christ had already returned in the year 70 AD it was possible for them to bring about Christ's millenial kingdom themselves, and be free of sin and perfect in this lifetime (a belief called Perfectionism).
