The Amish will ALWAYS be self sufficient. We could learn a valuable survival skills from them. Much respect.

[@annielehnhardt_kolakowski5818]

They are self sufficient, but they do not properly follow the laws of the true God. Yes, they separate themselves physically, but it take more than that. The scripture says, "Faith without works are dead." That is something I have to work more on.

Actually they’re becoming more and more dependent on English tourists to make money because land is too expensive now and they’re population doubles every 20 years. There’s a good documentary on Amazon about how they’re adapting to survive. Only 10% are farmers now. Sadly.

[@radonpq99]

As a foreign resident doctor in Pennsylvania having arrived in USA for just four months, I came face to face with this unique people. Their simple way of life, rooted to nature and God shunning greed and personal agrandiosment, placing great value on family and community. The striking thing this beautiful documentary tells us that how Amish has accepted few modern additions to their lives bit by bits over the years, always keeping them at manageable levels and never allowing machines and progress to run away with peace and contentment of a well rooted community who knows how to live of the land simply and without any competition with fellow humans. There are lessons to be learnt here for all of us, with rampant social media use and advanced communication sure brings a lot of ease and convineance but collectively are we happier??. Technology and progress should always be there to help humans and not the other way round. At present this pace of progress has made the humans of this generation utter zombies who live to satisfy the demand of this faced paced existence rather than enrichment of their souls.

@Jeff rutt, As much as I like the Amish way of life, they Shun “Born-again believers” as we all know that “bishop” controls everything

[@harcık368]

They are living the real American dream! I think more people would like to live like them instead of modern world and its endless problems. No electric bills, not buying fuel, no phone bills, no insurance for cars, no maintainance for the cars, taxes for the cars, no internet, no air condition, no TV... We actually pay a huge price for our modern way of life compared to the Amish. We have much more expenses and we make more pollution, we live unhealthier and more we're more stressed in order to live or survive. Capitalism made us all slaves of the system.

Wonder video I grew up around Amish country and it brings back wonderful memories. The way God meant meant for it to be I am sure.

[@patrickschneider728]

I have been living like this for 10 yrs *

[@daisygodolphin1158]

I think the Amish have got it right living without electricity n modern technology. It's much better for the environment the way they live n I like that. Old fashion ways very wholesome xx

[@oldtwinsna8347]

Not necessarily. Many run diesel generators to power up disposable batteries. Those generators are much more polluting to the air than being on the efficient power grid and the battery wastage is much more than the typical household which is also not good.

I sow the Amish first in Landcaster PA. Very interesting, cuz I’m a mennonite from Mexico.

[@Nakaiidine19-eC.aA.dC98]

It’s good to see them being able to live their way of life. I respect that. They take care of the land, it takes care of them. It makes me think of the Native Americans, who were force off their land, weren’t able to live their way of life or religion, took their hunting grounds from them. Their whole way of life was taken from them and are now living in poverty. So I’m happy for the Amish people that they are allowed to living their way, but you have greedy landowners who are looking at their land now. I say good luck w that. I feel for them. Old Native American proverb, “if you don’t take care of the land, it won’t take care of you”

[@jakebredthauer5100]

@@TheDarkSoul6660 I suppose Germany has a Christian culture and an anti-christian culture. The shift has occurred over time as it has here in America. The Amish are sticking to it.

[@TheDarkSoul6660]

@@jakebredthauer5100 not just America or Germany but Europe too, you got non religious and religious people all over, it's not surprising anymore, infact more n more are non religious, I am not religious, so I support atheists. Theres alot of atheism In Europe and America. I'm patiently waiting for religion to die so science can take over n we can evolve!!! But the preservation of the old world by amish is quite amazing and they have the right idea, living off the land, rely on themselves, dont use much technology, farm and do things with yout hands, promote hardworking people who take pride of heritage, family and good times. The amish are Welcoming and kind ppl, most would give u food on their table and give you friendly company. We should copy their examples of living Except the religious shit, that we can leave out but other than that its perfect.

I need to live communally..I see the value now of living and working together and how our new technology is seemingly bringing us to be more connected..but really it is false connections that alienate is because we have the comfort and luxury to choose what is easiest and most entertaining to ego. I'm not Christian..but my heritage is Mennonite just like some are Ukranian or German etc..I didn't go to church etc. And I didn't think I would believe in Bible as the only authority on how to live...but like I said..I would love to live communally with spiritually minded people with a lot of similar lifestyle and philosophy approaches that the Amish is this film represents. Especially the value of family friends neiboirs etc, controlling your own pace and cadence of life, and staying connected to the natural world
