Description:Why do a huge group of 340,000 people "willingly" deny themselves cars, electricity, computers, televisions, and many other modern conveniences? And why do the Amish bishops demand from them, lives of extreme deprivation and hardship? Why is disobedience to the church rules punished with harsh shunning which shatters family ties between, children, and others within the Amish church? How have the bishops, for centuries, almost totally controlled the minds and lives of these peaceloving people? Jonathan Fisher was born and raised Amish and is a former member of their church. In this multi-faceted, "one of a kind" memoir, he explains in great detail many closely guarded facts, NOT REVEALED ANYWHERE ELSE, about the Ordnung of the Amish church which demands strict submission to this bleak lifestyle. He resents that the Amish limited him to an eighth grade education and, with poignancy and much humor, tells of his childhood and Rumspringa years and of his defiance and rebelliousness which resulted in him being permanently shunned an ex-communicated from his people. He tells many quaint and amusing stories and facts about Amish life and what it's really like to live that way. He is saddened that his people are deprived of a huge amount of modern conveniences and privileges which would make their lives vastly easier and more enjoyable. He yearns for their day of liberation when they are no longer enslaved to the harsh and bizarre demands of the Ordnung. With heartfelt sincerity, he implores the Amish bishops to be more lenient, with the earnest hope they will someday have true peace with their people.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
