what do you think of amish?

[GoldenAgeHero]

im watching an outsiders episode on ABC aboput how this former amish chick was raped by her brothers and how the amish veiw such acts as minor and such, very disturbing story. but what do you guys think of the lifestyle or society as whole?

 

[Flexo]

I, personally, hate the Amish with a passion.

Although not for their lifestyle; a group of them were mean to me as a child. True story.

I recently went down to Amish country, and I don't care how backward I think the idea is, they make some damn good food and brooms.

 

[Byrd Man]

You know what's the best part about the amish? they can't get on the hype to defend themselves, suck it amish with your beards

 

[Dark Zero]

I find using the Amish lifestyle to punish the youth is very effective.

 

[KingOfDreams]

Personally, I think the lifestyle is a bit strange but I'm not here to judge. To each his or her own.

 

[Danalys]

i'll i know is from that film witness.

 

[Gamma Ray]

Amish people are allowed to use the internet, except they use a series of tubes instead of digital connections and such.

 

[Erundur]

I do not know enough about them except one time I saw them at the Zoo with there families.

 

[The Last Meatbag]

Amish kids are cool. Whenever Im in Pennsylvania riding in the car, I look out the window when Im by the corn fields, and I see the kids roller blading in their suit things....


It's pretty kickass

 

[Whirlysplat]

Never seen them outside of Witness, but if Rape is considered a minor act as you say. I have little time for them. If it's not true then I have no problem with them.

I live in PA, just outside of Amish Country. They suck to drive behind. They suck when they try to argue sales tax exemption in a store (seen it happen multiple times). I can't wait to get the hell away from them.

 

[maxwell's demon]

they beat their wives and deal in (and get addicted to) heroin.



no joke. oh well.

 

[The Last Meatbag]

Yeah, my grandfather was a doctor and lived in Lancaster PA, he said that Amish guys were notorious for getting ****ed up at the bars

 

[Dark Zero]

If I were amish I'd want to get f**ked up too.

Well, that's what the internet is, a series of tubes. Definitely not a dump truck.

There's a group similar to the amish around here. You know, live in there own small colony, dont use technology, etc. etc. They aren't technically amish though, because I think they have different religious views. But anyway, because they live in that small colony, with no new members allowed, they got to the point where there was no way to further it without interbreeding with family. So they you know, pay guys to come in and impregnate there women...

Never seen this video. Is that Florence Henderson?

I love the part where he flips off the tourists.

Weird Al rules.

 

[Clouseau]

honestly, i admire Amish people... not enough to want to become Amish, but i respect them a great deal... plus, sometimes i think maybe they're on the right track... i mean, just think how much money they save on gasoline for their vehicles!

 

[Cyclops]

Hey, they live their way, I live mine. I'm not about to sit in judgement of their lifestyle. Not to mention, I don't care enough to research thoroughly.
