The Amish are a group of traditionalist Anabaptist Christian church fellowships with Swiss and Alsatian origins. They are known for their simple living, plain dress, Christian pacifism, and a slow adoption of modern technology. Operating as an ethnoreligious group, they maintain a high degree of separation from the surrounding modern society.

    Amish groups differ substantially in conservatism and technology use.

    “The Amish have the Schwarzentrubers, which are the most conservative. You'd think of the Schwarzenetrubers. When you think of Amish, no phone, no electricity. It has the Beachy. Those would be the most liberal. They drive around.”
