you should either be Amish or not Amish.

I'm saying he's Amish (because he told us he's Amish), but he's adapted a bit to allow his business to operate.

I haven't called him, but Mr. Kobe has. Have no idea on whether it is a cell phone or shop phone.

Again, I'd say that's an Amish loophole. Like when I was Catholic but believed gay marriage was just fine. People can have modified versions of a belief system.

I understand what you were saying. I was just providing a little more information based on my experience.

As I said, it depends on the congregation. In your example, if your church heard that you believed in gay marriage, you likely wouldn't have been kicked out.

Amish pay taxes. They just don't pay Social Security and Medicare taxes because they opt out of the system. They still pay real estate taxes, income taxes, business taxes, sales taxes, etc.

Same. Although it probably isn't quite as obvious based on attire.

I get it. And since this guy does one of these buildings every 2-3 weeks, I assume his congregation must be fine with liberties like using a phone, hiring a contractor, etc.
