Re: Lancaster Online: web usage among Amish & Mennonites
I've wondered at times if Eastern's justification of the internet (after the church wide vote was overwhelming negative) My memory of the announcement is that the vote was close (within a few percentage points?), but I don't have any record of that. That the final decision overrode the agreed upon ...

Re: Anabaptist Identity Conference 2024
He's a well-known speaker in the conservative Anabaptist world, particularly in the non-affiliated churches. As he's not an ordained minister, and parted ways with a conservative Mennonite conference years ago, the conference churches generally don't invite him. Some of his talks are on YouTube. ht...

Re: Rosary Beads?
So what is the Biblical basis of communicating with the dead? Or the dead interceding? I suspect you have none, but I will give it a shot. That depends, do you believe Saul communicated with Samuel or with an apparition claiming to be Samuel? Ah, yes. This is a common question posed to Bible school...

Re: "English" who join the Amish
I haven't worn a short sleeve shirt in nearly twenty years. One, I think it's more practical, I can roll long sleeves up but not short sleeves down.

Re: "English" who join the Amish
something about toes suggesting cleavage That's a new one. Sounds like one more case of someone trying to strengthen a position/opinion/tradition/preference and instead making a fool of themselves and a mockery of what they intended to support. Goes right along with sleeves needing to cover the elb...
