KillerTofu ,

The Amish community I am familiar with is hypocritical with its interaction with modern technology. They won’t have a phone or electric lights in the house but will in their workshop. They won’t drive a car but will gladly get rides from their neighbors. They use battery powered lights instead of lanterns and also put them on their buggy. They have a fit about people putting solar arrays on their adjacent property. They use gas powered engines to power their washing machines.

I understand that each community governs themselves and decide what they will and won’t accept, so the community I’m familiar with may be less “orthodox” than some.
