same stress as a human, just a different way of doing the day to day things like getting to the store, and if they farm the way they do that. I work with this people everyday at there homes and business. and they have drug abuse, alcoholism, suicide, sexual abuse, depression, misuse of funds in business... every bad thing we have and they have the good as well. one thing they have that is so lacking in "English" is true "community" they do not have internet social media fake relationships, they quilt together, hunt together, Church together, vacation together. and that goes a long way.

[@AishaAli-pc4hh]

I'm born in the modern world. but a life like this is what I like. simple and have been to other countries exploring. and the Amish in Ohio is the friendliest I have ever met. even though I'm Muslim they accepted me in their homes and community due to one of the son in same school as me when I'm in the USA. not all Amish are close minded. some have developed well and embrace and welcome other religion. maybe 1 in 30 Amish family will do that but its changing soon. and when the family visited me in Singapore they stay with us for 1 week as my family have 3 extra rooms. we don't put any religious signs in any of our rooms so anybody will feel comfortable as we respect all religion. Amish people are super friendly but cautious. would love to go to Kentucky where they have moved and visit one day. and till now 15 years I'm still in touch with the Amish family I knew. god bless them

This is very different from the Amish community we lived in for years. They had regular toilets and showers and gas stoves and gas lights everywhere. They just charged huge batteries off the property and ran a water pump by fuel. Many Amish now also use tractors and if not they use a diesel run PTO in-between their horses and machinery.

You never hear cursing when watching the Amish, to be so respected.

@Chickennugget you need to dig more in your history. as a muslim, I totally respect the amish. they choose to live that life. I respect Christians, Jews, etc because my religion says, everyone has a mind and heart to choose his faith, but what I don't accept and what I don't respect is claiming that Islam killed many people way far than any religion. first of all religions do not kill, people do, and there is a difference between a religion and its followers. second, Islam didn't kill entire contents to occupy and live on others lands. third, Islam didn't launch wars to colonize countries and suck their gold, diamond or oil. forth, Islam didn't massacre nations like the Jews. fifth, Islam didn't bomb villages and towns with nuclear weapons. sixth, Islam didn't start WW1 or 2. seventh, Islam is not putting its nose on everyone's business nowadays on the name of democracy. Islam is just the scapegoat everyone is using to erase the horrible history and to kill facts. I suggest you relax, eat some chicken nuggets and educate yourself.

That's because [1] you're only seeing the positive side of it [2] being a woman, you always want what you don't have, and to be where you aren't, and to "meet new people" , "learn new things" and "travel to new places" like every woman ever born says, when you ask her what she wants. This lifestyle would be so far away from that ideal, you have yet to believe it. And if you have 1 drop of feminism in your blood, you wouldn't stand it for a day. You'd be ....let's see, how do you put it....a "2nd class citizen"? You'd be under the thumb of one of those guys, as his wife, not one that fits the description of your "ideal guy". Like everything else, it looks sweet and cozy from afar. But after 1-2 days you'd be throwing a tantrum and want out at any price. No - what you want is to experience the nice aspects of this life - the evenings - for a few days maybe, and maybe once or twice a month. But to be stuck in this life day in and day out, with no other options - all the one's you're so used to - would be your worst nightmare, and drive you to suicide.

@Arnulfo Laniba Of course the old cowboy way of treating a horse is abuse. The other way of working with the horse is developing mutual trust and respect. Then the horse wants to do as you ask, willingly.

[@gerrycoleman7290]

@Arnulfo Laniba I see the behavior. You must be blinded to the truth.

God has blest the simple life.... with less they have so much more!

[@raycity1234]

Working dawn till dusk An doing it like the 17 hundreds is not a easy life .

[@wowed1659]

I don't believe in God so what eves

[@williedaniels3882]

Too bad you religious wingnuts forget--or CONVENIENTLY put the bad RESULTS of Amish doctrine (like the old saying--"out of sight, out of mind). They have a horrendous problem of inter-breeding causing REAL birth defects, including mental retardation! And it won't get any better since no new conscripts are joining this outdated religious order!

The quality of craftsmanship with this furniture is unreal!

[@grinchoi1]

Since they grow the vast majority of their food and they don't have refrigerators what do they do for food during the winter?

[@louloubelle1330]

I would love to live a life like this

[@tubedude54]

Till you actually tried it...

[@wingman5724]

right if the tourist really knew the truth we they still come i suppose they would

[@Kryxys]

I have a girl and a young boy. We have lived this rat race in America. If we wanted to move into an Amish community, who can I talk to. Neither of us are opposed to working hard. We would just need a place to sleep after a long hard day.

[@vincentbain1392]

[@Mister-Christer]

Sounds nice. Greetings from Sweden. God bless

[@AndrewDelgado-og6es]

When he said I don’t try to one up some other beca there is nothing to one up that’s what I thought like if no money was here we’d be a better society but greed comes in rich and poor

[@frightenedfemale985]

I would probably go insane living that lifestyle.

[@pokergalpoker]

I agree, but, if that's all you knew and were born into it, it's just a way of life to them

[@maiajones9765]

Frightened Female not if you were born into Amish life.

[@freedomfighterone]

If you are living in that American jungle, you maybe already insane.

[@buckfield_outdoors418]

Frightened Female tbh I wouldn't mind living that kind of lifestyle I mean I don't necessarily need technology, all I need to live is a little house in the country where I can hunt and fish and love life everyday

[@denhaag-iq5ef]

thats what you think but once you get used to it you will love your life

[@the_original_Bilb_Ono]

can you "convert" to being amish? if i had a woman to do all that at home, id craft the hell out of some wood too.

[@Bruuski]

Sure, you can be Amish! First you have to learn to speak/read German, "Pennsylvania Dutch" which is a common language of German, Dutch, and English., because the holy bible you'll be reading every day is in German.Then you spend a year or two in a "proven" lifestyle. Proving to the church elders that you are serious about being Amish; completely living the Amish way. You will do, wear, pray, work, live everything Armish. Then you may be accepted and allowed to be baptized. Only then can you pick your new slave wife and marry, after you're baptized. Easier to get a microwave and a dishwasher. Oh Ya no electricity, cars, TV, cellphones, power tools, etc. and you get up at 4:30-5:00 am. Work your farm/job six days a week until 7pm. The horses you'll need for your buggy? They have few indiscretions at to where they'll sh!t, so get yourself a shovel before you move in, lol....

[@jodeedugger9041]

Bilb Ono converting English to Amish is very challenging but doable they like to keep everything in the community or surrounding community each one has there own set of rules some stricter than others... They speak English and pennsilvania Dutch you would have to learn the language and culture and it isn t as simple as you see in videos... when you convert to Amish or Mennonite you are giving up everything you know and love from the outside world.... Also if you decide to leave the Amish you are shunned and your family cannot talk to you unless the church says other wise.... I just watched a Biograhy on the Amish.... it was very interesting.

[@jodeedugger9041]

Not dissing on there lifestyle at all it's just the old way it works for them and they are happy and that's what matters 😊

[@veronicathomas9403]

You can convert. Look into it...it's not easy...but frequently a family Will take you in for as long as it takes for you to meet the requirements. I have looked into it.

[@kaz1819]

I really want to show all the unaware Amish people movies or clips of modern life for us or take them out on the weekends lol

[@fierynoodles706]

I'm learning about the Amish for my school and let me tell you the amish live so much different from how I live or how people live in my society. I swear I'd die living like this...

[@laurastarling2510]

That horse is severely struggling due to its lameness. Pisses me off that they never give their horses time to heal.

[@josephjaydee1795]

Laura Starling I know when I was Amish we sure gave our horses time to heal not sure where you're getting your information

[@josephjaydee1795]

Laura Starling where I was born and raised in the church would excommunicate you if you did not treat your horse right

[@laurastarling2510]

Joseph Yoder I'm getting my information from watching the horse move. Head is bobbing and leg is pulling. Clear sign of lameness.

[@josephjaydee1795]

Laura Starling are you talking about the one in the buggy? If you see the horse is slowing the buggy down which means he has to push back to slow it down and then he turns to the left because he is turning! I can guarantee you that you have an Amish man would be working a lame horse in 99% of Amish communities he would disowned by the Amish church

[@josephjaydee1795]

Laura Starling there buggy horses are standardbreds

[@thejubemaynards1632]

Y’all wanting to live this life are crazy lmao😂😂

[@ceciltossie871]

This is Billy.Their lifestyle actually closer to biblical pioneer style living.It's culture isn't for everyone.It's purist,strict & very heartwarming.So close to early settler days with it's own language dress & hand made quality wholesome manner driven moral ethical life that shows respect to the environment that spawned it.

[@preciousstoryward8708]

I respect the amish! We are hoping to buy a Amish's house soon and hopefully live a little simpler lifestyle. 😊Praying to God it all workout.
