Kindness and respect are the main Amish beliefs. My motorcycle had broken down in the middle of a northern Amish settlement about 50 miles from my home. I got stuck at around 8:30pm with no cell signal and was expecting to put up camp when I see a lantern off in the distance. There was a kind grey haired Amish man wearing a black trenchcoat and glasses asking if I needed help. He took me to his farm where he said he had a neighbor who was a motorcycle mechanic that owed him a favor. I visit Hamish and his family every year for their kindness and respect and have gotten to know their small community of less than 200 people.

It's basically just a simple, hard working group of people that try to live their lives as close to the biblical ways as possible. To live as God tells u to live. They live very simply, depend 100% on themselves with no help from the government. They pay taxes, but shun govt. handouts in any form. They are very self-reliant and are a very hard working, but very giving people. They have their own simple traditions, grow their own food, make their own clothes and everything else basically. They help their neighbors, Amish or not, and do unto others as the Bible says. There is nothing cultish about them. It is a very simple, honest, non-materialistic way to live. Please get your facts straight before u go spreading lies and gossip about those different than u that u are uninformed about. ✌🏼

Jesus indeed was carrying a for earth humans huge portion of that energy called god, but not all of it, thats impossible, neither the human body could house that nor would it make any sense for such a high energy to operate solely from the very very limited 3rd dimension. Jesus perhaps was the most sacred being in history carrying the most amount of love any human has ever done but believing he solely would be god is just not right. He doesnt want to prayed at, his mission was merely to spread love and to awaken real love within every human, nothing more.

@Smokey Mcb neither is he the only one nor is anyone only saved by him he can help and assist but there is nothing exklusive about him, there are billions of light beings, so called angels which are all just as powerful and just as loving and just as helpful. Its just a juvenile idea of mankind that only one person can do things, only one person is sacred, only one person can save you, only one person is divine, believing this will lead to a path of darkness, just as christianity has demonstrated for hundreds of years by killiing MILLIONS of innocent people. Jesus himself said that you "will recognize them by their fruits". Yea well look at the fruits christanity for the majority of people, even today a single ring of the pope could feed thousands of people, not to forget that the vatican is one of the richest countries of earth and they do nothing to make this planet and society a better place. Its still like in the middleage they pretend to be good, but minors are still raped by some of their members, the robbed wealth is still not returned, ... and so on. Why you think jesus would say anything different today then he did 2000 years ago, "nothing but man made religions/prayers/laws" and this is also true for christianity it has been established after jesus was dead for a long time, he never wanted that people pray at him, he never wanted that millions are tortured and killed in his name.... No Lightbeing ever wanted that... killing and torture is never in tune with god. May the light of the existence enlighten your spirit.

That is a really positive thing. One huge disadvantage is the much higher prevalence of often crippling rare genetic diseases due to a higher rate of genetic mixing from inbreeding due to a much smaller pool of individuals within the communities.

Coming into this one specifically I had never even heard about the Amish people and their culture, but I left with a treasurable lesson about them. Much respect and admiration towards EVERY yes theory member and for this one, Eric and tommy.

“It’s not the best choice To carry resentment, because bitterness, it will destroy the vessel in which in carried. It will eat through (it).” Okay, do y’all realize that wasn’t a quote by Marilyn Monroe, or Mark Twain? Those incredibly, wise words were spoken from Samuels heart. An amazing, Amish husband and father. It’s not like he sat up in bed the night before etching in this notebook how that would sound good. He literally spoke those words off of the top of his head by simply verbalize his reals for his morals and values. And that, my friends, is beautiful!

I feel the media forgets that being Amish isn’t always a cult. There are so many cults where technology is rejected and everything is based on tradition on religion. Amish people use what they need but like the challenge of living without. As someone who’s grown to love hard work and the outdoors, I feel more and more like taking that as an example for my life and only use what is beneficial.

It is too broad to generalize. The Amish encompass a vast array of different communities, of which some have some unethical standards, whereas others not so much. Although, there are quite a few Amish communities known for harboring very cult-like tactics for maintaining their community and their religion. Those are the communities which tend to get sensationalized more frequently on television for obvious reasons.

@@azure6892 I do not think the issue is abandoning technology and living a self sustainable eco-friendly life so much as the excessive religious radicalism that manifests in many of these groups. Like I said, it is too broad to generalize, though some of the communities do present in some very cult-luke manners, and they tend to be quite hostile towards apostates, LGBT+ people, and in some cases, people with certain disabilities. For some of the groups, a child can be abandoned and shunned by their own family if they present with the above traits (though can be more complicated for certain conditions and/or disabilities).
