 CONFORMISTS--PURITANS--SEPARATISTS
The Protestant population of England during the latter half of the sixteenth century (1550-1600) had divided into three sects--the Conformists, the Puritans, and the Separatists or Brownists.
The Conformists claimed for their church more than human authority and for its earthly head supreme power in the State as well as in the Church.
The Puritans were in and of the established church but objected to many of the ceremonies, such as the ring in marriage, the sign of the cross in baptisms, showy vestments, receiving evil livers to the communion.

 Pretty Gothic Web Zine -- How to Be a Mad Non-Conformist   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The illusion of "non-conformity" is that of one being truly and conveniently unique as a result of changing their appearance -- FOR THE SAKE OF the conformist majority, resulting in feeling special.
The truth, however, is that this type of nonconformist has actually demonstrated "ultimate conformism" because as "the ultimate conformist" their motivation is for the majority.
On the other hand, actual non-conformists leave their "included" status behind for a freaky "new" look in lieu of adventurousness, attention, and/or respect.
