It just creeps me out.
Nothing. No internet, xbox, cable tv.
AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Scary.
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!! No halo?Xbox?Ps2?Internet? wtf????Who the hell would live like that, I mean I just can't imagine life without cars.The Amish are ignorant people who neglect to realize the future is here!
Ok now im done. Yeah it does confuse the hell outta me. :shock:
A great man once said "Respect for other peoples rights (opinions, views, ect.) is peace".
Truth is we're just spoiled.
Look you got to respect these people, it is their religion, and their believe.
Humanity has to be very sensitive to culture. They live without all this stuff fine, and i respect them for it.
EDIT: They are definately missing out on this FORUM!
We should probably congratulate them for it. I mean, if somebody took my PC away I'd be the most bored man on earth who didn't even get out of bed and such...
But they manage to live without all this every day.
Geez, I respect them (more or less), I just don't understand how they got on the internet...
Well the way I see it, If I went over to an amish community for a week I would have to sneak my tv, gameboy, computer, ect. and a generator to run it all on :D Because how the hell are you supposed to go from this spoiled life to a life like that? They have no opportunity to get a good job and make a bunch of money or anything.But I suppose we should all respect them for doing what they do because imo that would be nearly impossible.
O yeah I agree with dougdrums. How did they get on the net?
:lol:

\"What do the Amish think of tourists visiting their area?\"
\"Amish people want nothing more than to simply be left alone. However, for the most part they have accepted the influx of tourism as something they cannot change. So far as their lifestyle, tourists have not changed the Amish. It is true that some have moved away, partly because of tourism, but also because of the high cost of land in Lancaster County. Others have opened small shops and are now realizing profits from the tourists.\"

I've been to Lancaster county a few times. Even though I could not live my life like that, I have the highest regard and respect for the Amish.
They are an honorable people!
They didn't get on the net.
Somebody else, who is obviously not Amish, did it. As you will find, somebody might create a website dedicated to Guy Fawkes, but that never means you have to be Guy Fawkes to do it.
One day I'm going to hold up an amish store with a cell phone.
"Nobody move, or they will hear you in California!"
"Ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
:roll: ok, fine, it made me snicker...
