based af.

>>756158

basically protestant version of monasticism

OP pic related. Extreme pacifist morals put their society in such a bind, that they have to literally employ a small group of people to specifically break their own moral codes in order to engage in practical affairs that conflict with their own code. (I.e. the Amish Mafia.)

I have no idea why anyone would leave them. Seems like a paradise among the ruins.

>>756158

Seem like a really based bunch honestly, from an Eastern Europoor perspective they're really living the ideal life.

>>756158

Based ad farmpilled.

>>756204

You realize that show is entirely scripted and fake, right?

>>756202

Never thought of it that way, interesting…

>>756202

They have like 12 kids

>holding shotty

it is entirely possible those are NOT actual Amish …

Yeah, okay, aside from the fact that these posed for a photograph, which is impossible, since Amish regard photography as a vanity and therefore posing is kinda verboten

>Thoughts on the Amish?

i think amish is a pretty cool guy. eh live simple for the Lord and doesn't afraid of anything.

>>756539

I thought it was a tommy gun.

If it's a shotgun it's automatically much less cool.

>Shortly before Roberts opened fire, two sisters, Marian and Barbara Fisher, 13 and 11, requested that they be shot first that the others might be spared. Barbara was wounded, while Marian was killed.[9]

A greater love hath no man than this, to lay down his life for his friends.

Did not know that. My apologies.

Theyre super based socially but they have a meme church. I wish there was a non-religious famish movement.

>>756165

>I wish they would begome Orthodox but I have massive respect for them otherwise.

Same.

>>758192

Dostributism is the answer.

Laugh at me if you want…

"The other groups are corrupted; we go to these lengths of our own because it's the only way."

-every denomination ever

Amish pros:

-keep to their own

-invite the disbelieving to leave rather than bending the beliefs to accommodate them

-opposed to high status (not so much technology per se; it's the luxury and symbolism)

-work as contractors like the Catholics in the southwest

-breed a lot

Amish cons:

-use land in ways that don't support optimum birthing (population growth only goes so far if you're adhering to the ways of a world with lower capacity; Islam isn't going to slow their births down to make things "fair")

-a lot of them are really just violent criminals with premodern tastes

-don't contribute to the war effort against antiChristianity; just isolationists pretending they can isolate on mortal Earth forever.

-high noon goth fashion

If you're at war with them, then don't pin your hopes on a strategy that revolves around demolishing their barns.

Kek wouldn't surprise me tbh.

But seriously there should be amish like Catholic communities.

>-a lot of them are really just violent criminals with premodern tastes

Hmm? Could you elaborate on this?

Not Christian
