The Amish: How They Survive | Full Movie | Buton Buller

The Amish live far outside the cultural mainstream. During the last century, they grew from 5,000, inhabiting a handful of states, to 200,000 souls living in 25 states and one Canadian province.
Preferring community to technology, the Amish live their lives in close fellowship with each other. Within their religious communities, everyone agrees on what technologies to adopt, what clothes to wear and what horse-powered transportation to drive.
A decade ago, approximately 90% of Amish earned their incomes from farming operations. Today, in some communities, less than 5% do so. Learn how the Amish have successfully responded to a tightening agricultural economy. See how their strict adherence to community values contributes to their doubling in size every 20 years.
This documentary takes you on an intimate journey into Ohio Amish life and culture. You will discover how rapid growth and economic pressures threaten their community. You will also meet a people who, as a result of creative disengagement with the culture around them, thrive.

I'm a Christian and fascinated by this documentary. God has been calling me to simplify my own lifestyle and I think there is a lot to learn here.

Many are living more simply by necessity. We wash clothes in a machine run on a generator and hang them to dry in a line stretched between trees. We grow as much food as we can. We dehydrate, ferment and can extra produce for winter/off-season. We barely have refrigeration (just a small camper fridge run on propane). It's hard but it's what we can afford.

The Amish are NOT the most empathetic people you will ever meet when it comes to animal welfare. They will take care of their horses and cattle only as much as it takes to keep them working and producing. A buggy horse might be tied up for hours in the hot sun with no shade or water, tormented by flies because the owners won’t put fly spray on them. I’ve never seen my neighbors call a veterinarian. If an animal is sick they usually only try some home remedy. Sometimes it works, usually it doesn’t. That applies mostly to horses, cattle, and other livestock. As for cats and dogs, they are not pets. You’ll never see one inside the home or even in a doghouse and they don’t buy dog/cat food for them. They just wander about the place and are expected to feed themselves on whatever they can scrounge up. They find shelter in whatever place they can, whether it is -20 or 95 outside. The Amish will not interact with them by talking to them (other than an order) or petting them. They are never spayed or neutered so you can expect to see litter after litter running around the barnyard. Very few will survive past a year or two. Some buy a dog from a breeder for varmint control. Those are the puppy mills that others have mentioned. I’ve seen one or two of those mills and I can’t imagine a worse place to live. Great Pyrenees and Australian Shepherds are common varmint dogs. And as for outright cruelty, that’s more common than you might think. I’ve seen Amish beat a recalcitrant horse or dog mercilessly. I once saw our neighbor kids tormenting a small kitten while it cried and cried (I never saw that kitten again).

A horse that has his head "held high" can not work or pull as comfortably or efficiently as a horse who is allowed to carry his head lower, in a comfortable working position. Men ruin good horses by jacking their heads up for "fashion" - because they think a horse with his head held up too high is snazzy looking.

​@@elvenkind6072yes you can. Some communities will accept you. But not everyone. Some are more open to accept outsiders than others. The most difficult part would be the language Pennsylvania dutch, that old German/swissgerman/english mix. And You have to work quite hard, compared to the normal outside world. And you have to follow all the rules of the community and of the bible by heart. Otherwise you have to leave the community. It's not like "I don't like that commandment and I choose to ignore it" or "I will sneak in a tv to watch hockey" It's very hard if you know the outside world. People that are Born Amish grew up in the system, while you will probably have to learn everything from scratch. And that is quite difficult. But it can be done, if you really want to. You just need enough will to do it and a community that will accept you. And about the beast/ anti- Christ: Don't think you could escape the beast...🙈🙈 The beast will try to persecute, imprison, torture and kill every one that believes and that won't submit to it and that won't accept his mark. So the beast will probably immediately try to destroy the most traditional believers like the Amish. But we know that Jesus can raise the dead and give you eternal life. But it will be a very hard time once the Endtimes completely start. We will be persecuted and tortured and mocked just like Jesus was if we don't obey the beast. So running away won't make the beast go away. But I understand your idea, with the Amish 😅

Amazing video, I've learned so much about the Amish People, Thank you.

[@wolfevickery6081]

I very much enjoy the having Amish in my area. They keep alive everything that is suppose to be great about community living. When I was young so many more people participated in cummunity events and volunteered or supported each other. The Amish still do.

[@jeansaben9954]

love how this was done/I have watched this by renting from our library atleast 50 times now

[@emiliagallardo2655]

Absolutely love this kind of living. The Amish are a fascinated group of folk. 💗

Amish made furniture has and always will be my favorite furniture. It's worth every penny spent. Their craftsmen have something special that mass production simply lacks. There's a warmth and a soul to every piece that they make, and it's genuinely indescribable. My family has bought Amish crafted furniture since I was a child, and it's a coming of age thing to go buy your first piece from one of the woodworkers for us. Not to mention their communities are beautiful and wonderful and generally good. I try to support local Amish communities whenever possible, because they deserve it.

[@JourneyOfFaith72]

Extremely well done! Thank you.

[@barbaratrubenbach115]

Thank you for doing this video, it was most enjoyable. Use to visit Lancaster, Pa. several times, purchased so much of their harvests and then canned it. They have a beauty all their own, even though we do not see all into their lives, it has to be hard, but wish families were closer the way they are.

[@kimyoung3484]

Thank you so much for your video Sir.♥️♥️

It may well be beneficial to all citizens to limit tech and consumption, no matter what religion they practice. Looking long and hard at the inherent problems associated with uncontrolled tech advancements would benefit us right now. Many of our citizens in the US arent equipped to deal with the speed of tech development and implementation. It is just a simple fact that we should seriously address. I have rejected mainstream throwaway furniture and have filled my house with Amish solid oak pieces.

I am a minimalist. Resist materialism and be happier and better off financially.

[@lucy7b]

Using propane and diesel to light their homes and run refrigerators strikes me as a rather backward way of lighting. ‘Cheating’ the local church rules seems crazy.

[@samanthaporter6662]

I will literally be moving nextdoor to Amish people... I am very happy to have such smart, independent, hardworking people with morals and values as my neighbors!!

[@ericgingerbreadcartman]

why are you lying?

This is an ideal template for an alternative world post covid as society splits into two

[@melindawilson-pepper2074]

Fascinating and idealistic, I respect the Amish and those like them

[@roterakaten636]

Truly some of the best people I have ever met in my life.

Understanding where you live, and a community that is educated to know, is very important in order for longevity as a people.

[@lisaleonzis5303]

[@Sam-jd3zv]

Excellent videos sir god bless you all sir 😄😊

[@drjaaj1594]

I like this genuine people and community. They are the real believers and not hypocrites as I understand. They help each other so efficiently and effectively! I myself can’t live such a lifestyle but I respect them. It is interesting to know how much it costed and who pays for that building of the barn ?

[@barbaraweiss9398]

Excellent!!! I will want to see more!!

[@lorrettabarclay6237]

This is so awesome . The togetherness and reverence of our Lord and saviour Jesus christ.

[@lisalu3994]

Just look at those kiddos are running in the snow and having so much fun. I imagine the Amish don't see work as we do. Although manual labour is physically hard it's harder when you know so much of the population are sitting in an heated office etc. So if all are equal in their society it probably just seems natural to go amd graft. Great insight into their world. Thank you for sharing.

[@emmib1388]

yes, while they work hard, they also believe in family time and relaxation. So, when we are trying to get to our office job in the blizzard, they are at home enjoying time with each other !

[@teresacodilan7809]

they made their choices everybody does

[@francesodle6069]

Thank you for sharing t Your knowledge of the Amish way of life. Blessings to you and yours

[@vickirn613]
