Dear Andrea, How are you today? I heard from someone that you were making disparaging remarks about the Amish. I’d like to tell you about what I see as the strengths and weaknesses of Amish life.

and many others. The Schleiteim Confession itself comes from a sect of Christianity called Anabaptists. This denomination was persecuted and during the sixteenth and seventeenth century by the Protestants and Roman Catholics because of their “radical” views of faith and baptism. During this time of persecution and suffering, Michael Sattler, a prominent church figure, called a meeting of other Swiss Anabaptists. Together, they authored and wrote the Schleitheim…

The Anabaptists eventually took control of the city of Münster in Germany. In Münster the Anabaptists kicked out all the Catholics and were brutal to all…
