The Amish are a denomination of Anabaptists, found primarily in the United States and Ontario Canada. They are very similar to and often considered a subgroup of Mennonites. Indeed, the Old Order Amish and Old Order Mennonites are often confused by non-Mennonites because of the many similarities between the two groups. This article deals primarily with the more visibly conservative Amish groups but it must be noted that many "modern" Mennonites still consider themselves to be Amish, often using terms like "Progressive" or "New Order" Amish to describe themselves, regardless of whether or not they attend church regularly.

No, it is not true. All citizens of the United States are obliged to pay taxes. However, the Amish do not collect Social Security, unemployment, or welfare benefits, and through an arrangement with the IRS do not pay Social Security Insurance. They still pay income, property, and sales tax.

Like the Mennonites, the Amish are descendants of the Swiss Anabaptists (1525). The Swiss Anabaptists, called the "Swiss Brethren", had their origins with Felix Manz and Conrad Grebel. The name "Mennonite" was applied later and came from Menno Simons (circa 1496–1561), who was an Anabaptist leader in the Rhein Lowlands. Simons was a Dutch Roman Catholic priest who converted to Anabaptism in 1536 and was baptized by Obbe Philips after renouncing his Catholic faith and office. He was a leader in the Lowland Anabaptist communities, but his influence reached gradually into Switzerland.\n\nThe Amish movement takes its name from that of Jacob Amman (c. 1656 – c. 1730), a Swiss Mennonite. Amman felt that the Mennonites were drifting from close adherence to the teachings of Simons and the 1632 Mennonite Dordrecht Confession of Faith. Much of the laxity was in the area of shunning excluded members, also called the ban (or Meidung in Pennsylvania German). However, the Swiss Mennonites never did practice strict shunning as the Lowland Anabaptists did. The ban meant that believers would terminate contact with a non-conforming member of the Mennonite society. Amman insisted upon this practice, even to the point of a spouse's refusing to sleep or eat with the banned member until he/she repented of his/her behavior.\n\nThis strict literalism brought about a division of the Swiss Mennonites, who, because of unwelcoming conditions in Switzerland, were scattered throughout Alsace to the Palatinate. This division occurred in 1693, and led to the establishment of the Amish. Because the Amish are the result of a division with the Mennonites, some consider the Amish a conservative Mennonite group—and, indeed, some Amish would not disagree with this title. Some Amish began to migrate to the United States in the 18th century. Many would eventually settle in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania; the first immigrants actually went to Berks County, but later moved, motivated partly by security issues, tied to the French and Indian War, and land issues. Other groups settled in or spread to Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, Maryland, Tennesee, Wisconsin, Maine, and Canada.

yes, its showing ego and being superficial. Its the path of the devil. If you don't change your style to the Amish way soon, you'll be burnin in hell for all eternity.

Yes... I grew up around Amish country in Ohio.  My great-greandparents were Amish, but they "jumped the fence" (left the religion) before they committed to be baptized.  I still have Amish relatives in Indiana, and the family goes there for a huge family reunion in the summer.
