Amish In Greensburg

Anyone else know how these folks claim their beliefs are.They cant have tv,but they cant take their eyes off of them in Wal-Mart.They cant have a phone in their house but its right by the door in the garage and they are glued to their ears.They have vans in someone elses name first then they are lien holders.They want their drivers to pull up to the Wal-Mart or Store doors to wait on them.If you work for them your on a 24 hour day.Its hurry up and wait for them .They are a rude bunch of people.I cant understand why they dont just go ahead and get electricity and a drivers licence.JUST DONT KNOW

I used to see some amish people come into a place here in town i used to work and they had cell phones and mp3 players but these were younger kids. They were never rude though, matter of fact they were some of the most polite well behaved young people ive seen in a while

They may seem that way but to them we English are the Devil worldly poeople.If you think I'm lying ask anyone who has ever driven for them.If you do they think they own your ass. I know 3 or more drivers who they used up. Polite in a store different out side the store.They get drunk alot too.Not to mention Rumspringa.

Rather than watch movies or such about the Amish why not befriend an Amish family? I have several Amish families that frequent my home and i frequent theirs. We spend every Christmas morning with one particular family. There are many different "orders" of Amish. what ive learned from my Amish, who are "old order" is that they believe in the Holy Trinity and end time prophecy. Being Amish is not a religion, it is a life style choice, choosing to live off the land (for the most part) so as not to over induldge. Similar to how many Christians disapprove of drunkeness, which is an over indulgance (of alcohol).
Ive good experiences with Amish and ive had unpleasant as well. Like us, they come with many personality flaws because, after all, they are human.
