[quote ztirffritz]The Amish are a wonderful group of people. They are more or less self-sufficient. I was taught in school that they are among the few examples of truly communist society. Not Marxist, not Socialist, but Communist. The support each other through everything. They are human, but very noble on the whole. Quakers and Shakers are similar.
It's a shame that people can't just be noble and strong without mucking it all up with bizzarre religious practices. I've known some really great people of virtually all religions...smart, generous, kind, well-spoken people...who hold all sorts of crazy beliefs.
Hey...this is America. You're free to hold whatever nutty beliefs you want. It's just a shame.
