    • Primitive Baptists – also known as Hard Shell Baptists or Old School Baptists – are conservative Baptists adhering to a degree of Calvinist beliefs that coalesced out of the controversy among Baptists in the early 19th century over the appropriateness of mission boards, tract societies, and temperance societies.[1][2] The adjective "primitive" in the name is used in the sense of "original".[1]
    • Foot washing - Most Primitive Baptists perform foot washing as a symbol of humility and service among the membership.[16][17] The sexes are separated during the ritual where one person washes the feet of another.[16][17][18] The practice is credited with increasing equality, as opposed to hierarchy, within Primitive Baptist churches.[19]
    • Primitive Baptists trace their origins to the New Testament era,[3] rather than to John Calvin.
