You can’t really do this with a house cause houses are reinforced to a concrete slab. Even if you have a basement, some of the trusses are reinforced to the concrete walls
I am from Amish area, I've seen these dudes build huge barns in a day or two. It's CRAZY how efficient they work and how well they work together. They basically become this one barn building robot made up of multiple sentient beings. It's a sight to see for sure.
It is truly a blessing to be called a friend of the Amish people. I live in Northern Michigan and I'm a driver for the Amish community here. I pick them up and take them shopping or transport some of the men to different work sites and I also perform escorts for the big storage buildings that are made at a place called Woodland Structures where they build some of the most durable and amazing barns you can buy and all without any source of electrical power. I had to be in the Hospital for a few days a couple years ago just when I had 6 cords of split firewood delivered. My oldest daughter called me in my room to tell me that 10 Amish Men showed up at my house at 630 AM and sorted and stacked all of the wood in my basement and refused any payment other then snacks and water. They finished in less then 3 hours. This is the way these wonderful people are all the time.
@@Tadesan: That’s not true. Even the most orthodox Amish communities permit the use of hired drivers to access markets and facilities inaccessible by buggy. I know a retired couple who do exactly that job. They own two vans strictly to taxi Amish on shopping trips and other appointments.
Repent to Jesus Christ “I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.” Psalms 40:1-2 NIV
Seeing enough of mayhem, bloodshed, insanity, think the world should end. Then see Amish folks working together. The world should go on and we should mend our ways to be more like Amish.
Each and everyone of these men had to lift exactly 68 pounds, 4 ounces. They were all given 2 slices of bread and a cupful of goats milk for helping move this barn. I love how they work as a team and help each other out.😮
A English farmer allowed his main barn to be used as storage for straw by many local Amish in my county I was raised in, Ohio. The hay struck by lightning, destroyed the barn. The Amish shared the loss with the English farmer. A community came together. Many weeks of planning. On a day in the middle of planting season, the Amish gathered on one morning, arrived at the English farm, raised and roofed and completely finished a modern two level barn with amazing precision, manpower and a work song by the Amish leader as the Amish labored through the barn raising. The English kitchen was fully modified to accommodate several hundred workers for one day. English and Amish labored and restored their shared lives in one day.
They are simply so wonderful people and best craft makers.. efficient, live for each other and people of word. No contract needed, if Amish gives you a word that's it.. God bless them all and to give them physical and mental health, everything else they will create/make.
And I thought I used to work hard for a living. These MEN did it to help someone, and didn't receive a nickel.What they got was satisfaction knowing that someone will always be there for them whenever needed. I watched in awe.
From what I understand, they all help each other build a barn for each person who wants one, and move it if necessary. Then they have a good meal together afterwards.
@@swisschalet1658 Some are, some aren't. We've always lived near Amish people. There are sweet young people--couples, usually, and crabby old guys who are incredibly rude. Especially to "English" women. In short, the Amish are like other American populations. Oh, and I don't recommend buying any of their food products. They don't worry much about cooking and baking hygiene. I've bought bread and things like that to be friendly and support the Amish women, but I give the goods to our wild birds.
@@mt.shasta6097 lol. I live near the Amish, know plenty of them, buy their food, have been to their farms, and in their houses. The food they produce is better than what you get in a grocery store.

If only we could be more like the Amish, and put aside our sometimes petty, insignificant & selfish ( pride, motives & attitudes etcetera) selves ? Community! Imo we have lost sight of what it really means. For them it starts with their relationship with God & Jesus, or faith as some might call it.
Modern Amish getting into moving barns . Old school Amish only raised barns. 😂😂 Technology is not always better when you see how you could live having lots of help from your community..
@@yt45204 That's actually what this was. One elaborate prank on Isaac. When he gets back he's going to be so mad he might actually say the word that rhymes with barn.
Actually this occurs in many small towns, at local gathering to show And build community pride. it’s a beautiful thing to witness. Real pride in your culture and community
Years back i made a delivery to an Amish homestead with a semi and got stuck in a mud box....... They rang a big bell and the whole town showed up to pull me out of the mud....... what a sight so see :)
Wow, that was simply amazing, I was waiting for them to take a break but heck no all the way to the final resting spot. Amazing what teamwork can do. Every one of you individuals who participated in this barn move should be extremely proud, what a great job!!! Kudos
The Amish people never cease to amaze me, their hard work, dedication and sense of community baffles me. I do appreciate them letting us share in this by recording it
These Amish people can really just steal your barn if you weren’t looking for 30 minutes, like this is dead silent. Also I am impressed they built the barn that well where it was sturdy enough to move like that.
@@chaotickreg7024 im pretty sure it would be easier to carry supplies and materials up a hill and build it where you want it rather than it take 150 people to carry it in one piece 👌
This is only done through conservativism. Most Americans or anyone in the west for that matter, would not last out the day in the life of an Amish. They conserve culture and traditionalism. Their bench mark is not themselves (ideally) but rather God so that the goal posts don't move. A healthy and tight community does not put up with non-sense. They have clear boundaries. It's never based on relativism and absolutes exists.
@@paulmcnicholas3846 a community that can't stand together might not even DESERVE success, and gets whatever it has coming to them. Yes, I viewed this video with envy, I couldn't even get the community to stand together to purchase hay, and as a result most everyone has paid $300-$400 a ton for hay all thru the winter. It serves them right for not being more like these fine Amish folks, this year most of them will prob fail in the endeavor to feed their animals, and for no other reason than a lack of unity within the community. This same dynamic will likely play out pretty shortly here, but on a global scale
A local contractor in our small area who sold pole barn kits and installation always stayed 10-12 weeks out no matter when you called him. I found it took them weeks to build even small barns. Two Amish brothers decided they would start a local pole barn supply and construction company. I have watched them put up as many as 8 pole barns in a week. They were contracted to do a 100 x 400 chicken barn. It took them ten and a half days.
This winter, teams of Amish from Ohio and Pennsylvania travel down to SW Louisiana to repair over 50 homes damaged by Hurricanes Laura and Delta. As a volunteer driver I watch young men and women give hope to the poorest storm victims of the Lake Charles area. Such skill and perseverance. Each day began at 6AM with breakfast, worship, and beautiful singing. The Mennonite Disaster organization supplied the vehicles and equipment. Others supplied materials. The Methodist church provided housing. What a wonderful time we had learning about each other cultures. These young people were full of joy and energy. The girls worked at every job the boys did. I can't wait until they return in October.
I had no idea they did charity work or interacted with the communities around them to that degree. They always keep to themselves wherever I have known them to be. Very cool. Thank you for mentioning it.
We are in lake Charles at the moment rebuilding house's that got damaged in storms it is awesome to see people get they're homes back after not being in them for 3 or more years (we work for Samaritan purse btw)
How did they even find out about that storm? Surely, they may have heat of it from an "outsider" but never could they have broken the sacred vow of celibacy. From electronics and machines. They would do well in the Dune sci-fi universe.
Dweebs But in the end, it cost ZERO dollars, no machinery to hire, store or repair, and the environment was not harmed by oil emissions used in the creation and use fo the machinery. Perhaps the biggest benefit is that their sense of COMMUNITY was strengthened.
We had 3 Amish brothers, Michael, David and Alvin, from Lancaster County build our new 3 - Seasons Porch a few years ago. Every morning they'd arrive at 7am and work without talking or playing the radio. We sat and had a beautiful conversation with Michael S. when the project was finished. We asked about technology. He said different churches in the county had different "ordnung" about technology. If the Community felt it didn't interfere with family life (like cellphones or tv interfere with family cohesiveness) or with community life, then it was acceptable for that congregation. He also said the vast majority of Amish youth do not feel the need to go out on "Rumspringa", and that it was overly exaggerated on tv. Amazing workers and good people. Sally West Chester, PA.
We're looking to build a sunroom as well but not keen on big companies that dominate the industry ! Can you share their contact if they're interested ?
@@evelynekoumtingue7093 “Big companies that dominate the industry” There’s small construction companies everywhere. You gotta stop reading those magazines with them fancy ads!
I can't even fathom the amount of coordination as a whole group that this endeavor required! Everyone all working together as one unit was simply staggering! Well done, gentlemen!!
Pretty sad state of affairs if you ever asked " friends" to help you move.... crickets and everyone is too busy. Here it looked like 200 gathered for the move. Lesson to be learned here.
That's because if anyone makes the decision to Not help that person gets Shuned and all of their belongings go to auction it's actually a form of slave labor
We’re in Ohio and visit Amish country here whenever we can. If I was born into the Amish community, I think that would be a good way to live your life.
@@gfrizzleshizzlemanizzle Guys, it's easy! You dress in full combat gear (body armor, ammunition, entrenching tools), take a large-caliber machine gun on your shoulders and run across rough terrain in the wild taiga, a couple of tens of kilometers. every day. 2 years. And then everything is fine! You no longer know how to fall (you have a steel friend weighing 60-80 kg (that's about 160 pounds) on your shoulders who will fall on you if you fall.) - it's just a habit! It's very simple!
I count some of my best friends from that community, the most trustworthy, smart and hard working people I know, but also good business people making a fair earning from good work. My painter did our whole house by hand, whistling all the time. We stood there admiring it and he said do you think it needs another coat. I said, well thats up to you your the expert. He did it again, I expected to get a bill.... no he said, the quote was for a house painted. That is my standard so I did it right. My entire house, by hand! Imagine that.... he has my full trust and respect for life.
A quote for a house painting so I did it right. What a profound honest way to do business. Now that's a true professional. Thanks for sharing that part
For those that have wondered, how ancient people were able to build things like Stonehenge or the pyramids, the answer is - with a lot of manpower and a lot of ingenuity.
@@sparklesparklesparkle6318 I believe that culture is the issue. Country folk, regardless of diversity, tend to look out for eachother. City folk are more likely to reach out to the government for assistance. There are genuinely caring people who do what they can for their communities.
0:35 This here ladies and gentlemen is an extremely rare type of Structural based Arthropod called a Barnopede. They move at an extremely slow speed having Nearly 500 legs and can eventually be trained to follow commands as seen here. They also tend to have commensal relationships with different types of farm animals, as they usually sleep and habitate inside of them without harm to either species. Beware, If you notice one getting too close to your house or business, it may be attempting to mate. A good way to prevent this is having plenty of cattle to block your property aswell as setting up fences, retaining walls and obstacles around the house. Very cool rare footage!
Ever since I found my Amish great great grandparents, I have known that the Amish are specialists in cooperation. If only our society at large could behave this way !
That's why soviet communism crashed. These mob spent tens thousands of human work hours to just move the thing, likely damaging it to the point of being dangerous. Properly constructed shed could be disassembled, moved and reassembled safely by a team of 5 in just few hours.

I lived in Michigan when I was young before my parents split up and we moved to Florida but I was around the Amish in my younger days and they are a wonderful people! Their work ethic cooking and lifestyle is truly amazing. There should be more people like them in the world. It would be a better place!👍🏼🤩🫡❤️
You know when I was a kid I grew up in an area where everyone made fun of the Amish, but as I've gotten older and looked around at the world I live in, I've noticed that they're living a much more meaningful existence than we are. More and more every year, we rely on things that take the human out of humanity, and we can't figure out why there's more crime, more murder, more drug addiction, more suicide, more mental health issues..... I think the Amish got this thing figured out....
Lots of little issues in the Amish community, they just don’t share it with everyone. Many ex-Amish have shared why they left - too much control. Some have said that when there is a pedophile for instance, they’re forced to not talk about it. Or worse, marry the guy. Everyone has their own issues….but at least the Amish have self-sufficiency at the end of the day!
@@basicallyno1722 yeah I'm not trying to say that the Amish are perfect, just that I think there is alot we could learn from them. I mean here in the normal world we don't just hide our pedophiles, we worship at their altars, watch their movies, and let them make our political decisions.
@@chickenflavor9880 Original commenter: Makes sweeping statement about the entire Amish community. Rogue Universities: Points out a good reason why the generalisation isnt true. You: Clearly offended by the truth has to jump to their defence. Youre the idiot here.
It's possible for them because they have a people, culture, history ect... (social cohesion) Diversity is divisive and leads to ruin. Not a popular position these days I know, but history doesn't lie and the truth doesn't always please everyone.
Well we all can do it one step at a time. Walk in love, chose to do good. Jesus shows us the way. May not be popular, but it's the right way and it can move mountains by one act of kindness.

And this is what people can do when they work together!
Yep
Well most people prefer their barns stationary. ha
I read those things can weigh every bit of 10-12 tons
It's give me an idea I'll invent communism 😂
Tell the afro american community that !
This winter, teams of Amish from Ohio and Pennsylvania travel down to SW Louisiana to repair over 50 homes damaged by Hurricanes Laura and Delta. As a volunteer driver I watch young men and women give hope to the poorest storm victims of the Lake Charles area. Such skill and perseverance. Each day began at 6AM with breakfast, worship, and beautiful singing. The Mennonite Disaster organization supplied the vehicles and equipment. Others supplied materials. The Methodist church provided housing. What a wonderful time we had learning about each other cultures. These young people were full of joy and energy. The girls worked at every job the boys did. I can't wait until they return in October.
Those aren't tears in my eyes! I got allergies!😢💕
I had no idea they did charity work or interacted with the communities around them to that degree. They always keep to themselves wherever I have known them to be. Very cool. Thank you for mentioning it.
We are in lake Charles at the moment rebuilding house's that got damaged in storms it is awesome to see people get they're homes back after not being in them for 3 or more years (we work for Samaritan purse btw)
Respect 🙏 to these people
How did they even find out about that storm? Surely, they may have heat of it from an "outsider" but never could they have broken the sacred vow of celibacy. From electronics and machines. They would do well in the Dune sci-fi universe.
When people work together great things happen God bless them
The Amish were right along. We ought to have listened and saved ourselves much heartache.
Quite possibly the most random, yet impressive UA-cam thing I have no idea why it showed up in my feed.
My jaw dropped. Awesome.
Not doing that now during covid-19. Some one farts and they'll all get it
UA-cam algorithms
I must say. shed some tears at the brotherhood of it all......
Right!? Super cool tho.
Did anyone else have a visual of a very large millipede.
It's pretty cool how the whole community gets together for these things. I'd go there but all I want is the green corn.
Les mots ne sont pas assez puissants pour décrire la beauté de cette vidéo !!!!
Imagine you're out enjoying a nice day and way out in the distance you see a barn that looks like it's moving by itself... 😂😂😂
I never thought of it like that 😂
“But wait I still haven’t even started smoking this weed wtf”
That's when you voluntarily stop drinking the wine you packed for this picnic you are on...
Hahahaha.....
It looks like a centipede.
Too many shrooms🍄😣
The power of logic and Teamwork!!! NO emotion, no drama and no failure!!!
The emotion present is compassion.
@@Immortalaquarius Dont forget.....LOVE for your fellow man....(or people) to be PC....lol
Seems like they missed out on the most logical way of doing it, vehicles and power tools
Dweebs But in the end, it cost ZERO dollars, no machinery to hire, store or repair, and the environment was not harmed by oil emissions used in the creation and use fo the machinery. Perhaps the biggest benefit is that their sense of COMMUNITY was strengthened.
Idk about how much logic went into picking up a barn lol, but teamwork for sure
Actual people helping people in a unified community. It's wonderful to see and totally absent in this nation in most places.
We had 3 Amish brothers, Michael, David and Alvin, from Lancaster County build our new 3 - Seasons Porch a few years ago. Every morning they'd arrive at 7am and work without talking or playing the radio. We sat and had a beautiful conversation with Michael S. when the project was finished. We asked about technology. He said different churches in the county had different "ordnung" about technology. If the Community felt it didn't interfere with family life (like cellphones or tv interfere with family cohesiveness) or with community life, then it was acceptable for that congregation. He also said the vast majority of Amish youth do not feel the need to go out on "Rumspringa", and that it was overly exaggerated on tv.
Amazing workers and good people.

We're looking to build a sunroom as well but not keen on big companies that dominate the industry ! Can you share their contact if they're interested ?
I met an Amish guy whose church had a computer (no internet access) that they used to design logging equipment in AutoCAD.
How much did it cost for them to build the porch?
@@evelynekoumtingue7093
“Big companies that dominate the industry”
There’s small construction companies everywhere. You gotta stop reading those magazines with them fancy ads!
mennonites also worked for me. Same thing . I enjoy them.
The guy on the horse was going ahead yelling the barn is coming the barn is coming..
🤗
Now that's funny. 👍👍
Good stuff!!!
Impressive people power!
Paul revere ain't got shit on him
This is what you call working together.
To the Amish people, I love you and your lives will get better and I'm always been impressed by this video. Your community has ingenuity
Thanks for watching!
That is what you call MAN POWER! So wonderful to see the cooperation of these gentle folk in the maintenance of their community. I do so admire them!
Whatever
If YoU lOVe tHem SO MuCH WHy dONt yOu JuST....lol jk
It just goes to show you what a small group of determined individuals can accomplish. United we stand, divided we fall.

@@Robmancan1987 those are all white males to.
I can't even fathom the amount of coordination as a whole group that this endeavor required! Everyone all working together as one unit was simply staggering! Well done, gentlemen!!
They won't be able to read this
Crusader, I hope you never react to TV, movies, books, etc. the actors, athletes, and authors can’t hear your cheers.
@@crusader8626 They could, if the English farmer prints it. Also, I expected the move would involve drums to keep all those feet in-step.
@@Kharnellius genius. I'll have you know I regularly stand up in a round of applause whenever I finish a chapter of a book.
@@spqdallas yeah I guess that would make sense
This is absolutely amazing. We didn't NEED to be destructive to have amenities, we just believe we do.
Think of how these people are unified at CHURCH in worship and how they can do miracles as a congregation beyond moving barns...AMAZING!
Pretty sad state of affairs if you ever asked " friends" to help you move.... crickets and everyone is too busy.
Here it looked like 200 gathered for the move. Lesson to be learned here.
I’d be surprised if it’s only 200.
Their Amish that's why!🙏. They help each other.
My mennonite friends are the same, they still have a society that works.
That's because if anyone makes the decision to Not help that person gets Shuned and all of their belongings go to auction it's actually a form of slave labor
The only reason the Amish are still here today is the fact that they remove the lazy form their community. As every society should.
It takes a community that can work together.. God Bless the Amish Community! Loved the horse running by as well ..
Oops wrong guy
@Joe Barone Yessir
The horse and the rider kind of startled me a wee bit. :D
wow this is amazing, the power of cooperation, an unbeatable force
This is absolutely phenomenal!!!
The Amish have been showing us for years what a community united can do when they work together, god has blessed them.
Actually, we've just been spying on them and haven't learned anything.
God is spelled with a capital G
How many Jamals and Keishas are there in that mix? None. No kiki. No Rayquan. Only good salt of the earth people.
god has left them behind. His invisibleness is absolute.
If only nations. . .
4 or 5 men supervising.
250 working.
If this was a government job it would be the other way around.
Ha! And that is the _TRUTH_, too!
You sure said that right. !
touché!
Yeah and a cost of $500,000
Was wondering how many men were working. Thanks!
I wish I grew up in a community like this!
We’re in Ohio and visit Amish country here whenever we can. If I was born into the Amish community, I think that would be a good way to live your life.
3:57 I appreciate how smooth they rotate the shed. Each man has got to move a certain speed in a certain direction.
@Whatever Yo! Underrated comment
No it's quite simple, if you do it wrong you get trampled by a thousand men.
😂😂😂👍
I promise!
If I have to flee Russia to the USA, I will always use only hand tools to inspire your interesting people.
😀🙈
@@gfrizzleshizzlemanizzle Guys, it's easy! You dress in full combat gear (body armor, ammunition, entrenching tools), take a large-caliber machine gun on your shoulders and run across rough terrain in the wild taiga, a couple of tens of kilometers. every day. 2 years. And then everything is fine! You no longer know how to fall (you have a steel friend weighing 60-80 kg (that's about 160 pounds) on your shoulders who will fall on you if you fall.) - it's just a habit! It's very simple!
I count some of my best friends from that community, the most trustworthy, smart and hard working people I know, but also good business people making a fair earning from good work. My painter did our whole house by hand, whistling all the time. We stood there admiring it and he said do you think it needs another coat. I said, well thats up to you your the expert. He did it again, I expected to get a bill.... no he said, the quote was for a house painted. That is my standard so I did it right. My entire house, by hand! Imagine that.... he has my full trust and respect for life.
A quote for a house painting so I did it right. What a profound honest way to do business. Now that's a true professional. Thanks for sharing that part
Can I get his number? Lol
w Rick doesn't know anymore about painting than he does piss from pineapple juice.
@Chief Blacksheep give an example
I guess a key part of this is how much he charged you. He could have charged for 4 coats. Lol
This is one of my all-time favorite videos I love this one ❤️
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
For those that have wondered, how ancient people were able to build things like Stonehenge or the pyramids, the answer is - with a lot of manpower and a lot of ingenuity.
I feel like there's a joke in here:
" How many Amish does it take to move a barn"?
But the answer can only be" as many as it takes"! Incredible.
How many Amish women does it take to move a barn? None...they stand back and watch the men do it...
@@Penguin_of_Death As a man I'd prefer we do it. Unless they absolutely want to I see no reason to make a woman do it. Not that they can't of course.
What is red and has 400 legs? (or however many guys it took x 2)
They call it square dancing.
All your Cousins.
This is what happens when communities work together and take care of eachother. It's the way things are supposed to be.
I wonder why communities with diversity can't seem to cooperate like this...
@@sparklesparklesparkle6318 I believe that culture is the issue. Country folk, regardless of diversity, tend to look out for eachother. City folk are more likely to reach out to the government for assistance. There are genuinely caring people who do what they can for their communities.
@@Lucky-sg4wc what is wrong with relying on the government to take care of you?
It would be nice if everyone pulled together like this!
That they do it to an authentic Amish rock band soundtrack is even more impressive.
I am not Amish, but I would consider it an honor to be one of those carrying the barn.
I have moved fckn buildings and train cars by hand. The Amish can do it. I'm out.
0:35 This here ladies and gentlemen is an extremely rare type of Structural based Arthropod called a Barnopede. They move at an extremely slow speed having Nearly 500 legs and can eventually be trained to follow commands as seen here. They also tend to have commensal relationships with different types of farm animals, as they usually sleep and habitate inside of them without harm to either species.
Beware, If you notice one getting too close to your house or business, it may be attempting to mate. A good way to prevent this is having plenty of cattle to block your property aswell as setting up fences, retaining walls and obstacles around the house.
Very cool rare footage!
Lol I was just thinking "blimey, even the millipedes are huge in America!"
so underrated XD
SCP please contain this anomaly!
Ha ha, good one 👍
Hilarious!
These guys are always pranking that poor Jacob Yoder. 😆
I would be right in line grunting and hoping the dudes on either side of me were both much stronger than me.. you guys rock......
Ever since I found my Amish great great grandparents, I have known that the Amish are specialists in cooperation. If only our society at large could behave this way !
Fact!
Our government doesn't want this to happen.
@@mamawlife7852 they won’t have any country over the dummies lol
Um, we do. See that corrugated steel roofing on that shed? 100% the result of a massive cooperative effort.
@@bu-bye565 From the other side of the family. OBVIOUS
One of the most impressive performances I've seen from the Amish! The amount of concentration you need to have as a group to do this is amazing!
Just like schools of fish or murmurations of starlings, a selfish herd.
It’s actually pretty straightforward everybody picks up at the same time and you just walk in One Direction and you said it down at one time
That's why soviet communism crashed. These mob spent tens thousands of human work hours to just move the thing, likely damaging it to the point of being dangerous. Properly constructed shed could be disassembled, moved and reassembled safely by a team of 5 in just few hours.

Thanks for watching!
What a sense of community! I envy them!
Pure Enginuity, strength and determination and a lot of heart! I lived in Michigan when I was young before my parents split up and we moved to Florida but I was around the Amish in my younger days and they are a wonderful people! Their work ethic cooking and lifestyle is truly amazing. There should be more people like them in the world. It would be a better place!👍🏼🤩🫡❤️
Hey, how many Amish men does it take to move a Shed???? All of them.
🤣🤣🤣The best comment of all!🔥Bless you all!🙏🏾
That’s Teamwork. Imagine how things could be if Everybody would Work together like that
Amen
Imagine all the things we could carry 😮
I thought the same. So much respect.

The amount of effort that must of gone into this and with NO tech is amazing.
That is the most amazing thing I have ever seen
Using your God given strength for something good
God bless you Amish people
You know when I was a kid I grew up in an area where everyone made fun of the Amish, but as I've gotten older and looked around at the world I live in, I've noticed that they're living a much more meaningful existence than we are.
More and more every year, we rely on things that take the human out of humanity, and we can't figure out why there's more crime, more murder, more drug addiction, more suicide, more mental health issues.....
I think the Amish got this thing figured out....
For sure. Im seeking a life somewhere in the middle
Lots of little issues in the Amish community, they just don’t share it with everyone. Many ex-Amish have shared why they left - too much control. Some have said that when there is a pedophile for instance, they’re forced to not talk about it. Or worse, marry the guy. Everyone has their own issues….but at least the Amish have self-sufficiency at the end of the day!
@@basicallyno1722 yeah I'm not trying to say that the Amish are perfect, just that I think there is alot we could learn from them.
I mean here in the normal world we don't just hide our pedophiles, we worship at their altars, watch their movies, and let them make our political decisions.
Not only Amish the natives living off the land
Longer life span …
I do overhead doors and install for a few Amish crews...I’m telling you they are absolutely amazing and quick at what they do

The Amish are wonderful caring people. They look after each other, & come to the aid of others when tragedy occurs or when great need arises.
The way they ignore sexual abuse of children is so caring, right?
@@rogueuniversities6866 people: does 1 bad thing. Idiots: omg this cancels out everything good about them.

Diversity fixed that.
I imagine they'd come up with something like a crane and a truck... 😉
Starts with you and me!
Well, it didn’t just get up and walk away…!
Oh, wait, maybe IT DID.
If the world could pull together and help each other like this all our problems would be solved
It's possible for them because they have a people, culture, history ect... (social cohesion)
Diversity is divisive and leads to ruin. Not a popular position these days I know, but history doesn't lie and the truth doesn't always please everyone.
I agree!!!
Well, most of them anyway.
Diversity is our Weakness.
Simply wonderful, this is community living. A great shame that the rest of the world can't join together to help each other.
TOO much corruption and greed where money is King !!
It’s because they’re actively Christians. Without supernatural meaning humans just descend into materialistic chaos
Well we all can do it one step at a time. Walk in love, chose to do good.
Jesus shows us the way. May not be popular, but it's the right way and it can move mountains by one act of kindness.
And I bet not 1 ever complained.
