I think the Amish lifestyle is interesting, but I could never live in that way. It's not so much the religion, but when you're so use to things like electricity and air conditioning, it's hard to go without it. There are some things that we could take away from how the Amish live, even if we can't live everything the same.

Who knows ... maybe we could all be living with a lot less of the comforts we have been accustomed to up to now. It's true to say that we get used to something, and its difficult to give it up again. I couldnt imagine doing without my mobile phone, or my car. Come to think of it, I couldnt do without my computer either. I have very poor writing, and I wouldnt be able to read the notes I take in class unless i transcribed them later on.

Happy myLotting

Certainly, not all of us can handle this simple lifestyle. I just can't live without my computer, to do all the research, and other bizzare stuff. I just need modern technology to keep us happy. I need mobile phone, cars, and all it you mentioned above.

Maybe for a couple of days. I do think I'd get tired of it before long, but I am also quite interested in the idea. It might be a nice thing to do with the family for a weekend, but come Monday I want my internet back, lol!

I definitely agree with you. I like to experience for the curiosity of it. But for permanent, I simply couldn't do it myself. I still want the air conditioner, and other technology be available at home.

I definitely couldn't live in Amish lifestyle. I could experience it for a short time period, like 2 or 3 days. It is like a field day to visit the Amish community, and to experience and see their daily life. But to linger on that lifestyle, I just couldn't do it myself.
