Isn't that doing the same thing but just going around it in an awkward way :dunno:
I agree. It's still using technology and "things of the world". If you are going to be Amish do it right IMHO. I do have alot of respect for those communities without running water, electricity, etc. Now that's roughing it.

Up where I'm from in PA they'd just hire people to do the things their culture doesn't allow. For instance, they actually travel quite a bit and not all in a horse & buggy. There are people who "drive Amish" for a living. Also, the Amish homebuilders don't use power tools (or at least didn't when I lived there) but they hire one of the "English" to drive the van or suburban around to the farms to pick up the carpenters and drive them to the jobsite.


Ha, ha, ha... Driving Miss Amish!
