Thats really racist ( and coming from me... that is saying something!) Amish are not stupid. They are pacifists that prefer a simple life. They arent hurting anyone. They could probably work both of us under the table on what they do in a day. The people that built these do you think they were stupid? They were both built by Amish.

They are definitely good craftsmen. I do respect the desire to live a simple life. I'm not that knowledgeable about what they specifically practice religiously, although I suspect that privately, they are a bit harsh on their women. The only problem is that they often smell quite bad.

Who thinks the Amish are stupid? I do. Complete rejection of modern invention and convenience? What is that? No religion in the world says modern invention or convenience is sinful. If you want to be insignificant and on a fast road to extinction become Amish. Ridiculous. What do you think? If they reject modern medicine for instance I would say not just stupid but criminally negligent if it resulted in someone dying. I don't know they do reject though. Some people do embrace more simplistic lifestyles. I'm sure hippy communes are around somewhere. You think the Amish are less healthy than average American. Up your dosage of crazy pills.

Far from stupid. Backwards in some ways yes, but this myth they completely reject the modern world is a mistake-they actually for the most part accept things like modern medical care when needed. Plus unlike some sects or ideologies they actually give their children the choice to experience the modern world for themselves and then make their own decision on which they prefer living in.

They could probably work both of us under the table on what they do in a day. SO what if they are not into technology and that isnt actually true. I am from PA and I have been to Lancaster several times. Amish can use some tech- they just wont use electricity coming from outside( they want it all self contained) They need battery powered blinkers when they use their horse carriages, They use gas( propane i think its been a couple years since i was there)powered devices ( washing machines) and before you say BS, here I have seen one in person- in an Amish house. and I am the racist one?! at least I have my facts straight on who i dislike and think are stupid. Mennonites have real tech though. They are good christian people...They dont force their beliefs on you like LDS mormons. My point was not that the Amish are stupid. But that they were stupid for being Amish. If you think being Amish is so smart, why don't you give up all modern invention and convenience and go be an Amish? Not that we don't all enjoy your posts on how great Trump, the Republican Party and conservatives are. Not that we don't enjoy all your posts on how stupid the liberals and Democrats are. But that you would never give up all modern invention and convenience and become Amish because it would be stupid to do so.
