That stuff on the Amish is really funny, Clinton. Except for Kraybill who writes this high-falutin stuff, its clear that nobody there every had any everyday contact with the Amish. I used to live next door to Amish, until two years ago.
Sure, when the Amish Shooting took place in MY OWN NEIGHBORHOOD, and I knew the shoot and the shooter's kids, and the children who were killed, it was very special, very special what they did.
But much of the rest is just humorous.
