- How are we to be different? Let us count the ways.
- I just don’t think the Mark of the Beast is meant to be literal.
- Hmmm …. The buy-nothing Christmas that much of America experienced was maybe not so intentional this year.
- I’m waiting for the “can you hear me now” commercial on the Amish farm.
- For some reason, the death of a horse was all over the Amish Google alerts this week. Some slow news days I guess.
- Hey Amish! The codes, regulations and laws are there for your safety. To prevent things like chimney fires and kids dying.
- It’s all fun and games to tease the Mennonites until one of them shoots you or beats you to death.
- No. Just no.
- Could I have a team of four young Mennonite “boys” working on my house? Please? I’d treat them very well, I promise.
- There are actually also Mennonites in Mexico. They are just more poor, more isolated and … uh .. more like drug traffickers than their Belizean counterparts.

I had an aunt who – in the mid-1970s – was convinced that barcoding was the mark of the beast. She even had a book that she gave us that warned us all of the world’s end if barcoding caught on. Though she lived to see barcodes as a part of everyday life, I do wonder how comfortable she was in any given store.
I don’t get the cell phone link…how can the Amish use cell phones, period? Do they share a phone like some share a land line? Still…My phone needs to be charged once a day and my car charger doesn’t do it on a typical 20-minute trip. Is the Verizon store a long trip for the Amish cell-phone user?
So many questions…
I must admit that that option to have your bank scan your thumb print and then you can put your thumb on some ATM machines/credit card swipers kind of freaks me out.
