What was one pillar of faith in the shaker community

One pillar of faith in the Shaker community was celibacy.

Explanation:

Shakers are a Protestant Free Church sect that originated in England.  Their doctrine assumes sexual dualism with God, revealed in Jesus and Mother Ann. Celibacy was required, as was Christian Communism and faith in Christ's second coming. In 1776, they bought land in Watervliet in the state of New York, and founded a community there. Until the mid-1800s, they founded a number of thriving communities in the states of Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, New York, Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Massachusetts.

As shakers lived in celibacy, the movement could only survive through recruitment. It appeared that shakers adopted orphans, but it was banned in 1960. During the 20th century, fewer and fewer people joined, and today there are only a few shakers left.
