[QUOTE="RestoreTheJoy, post: 77391829, member: 411383"] Did not notice the time lapse. And yes, I well supported my assertions, as I always do. You are just dismissing what you don't want to hear and cannot address. The mainstream is not going to study them, of course, as it refutes the narrative: "an Amish Mennonite named Calvin Lapp, explained: “T[B]here are three things the Amish don’t like: And that’s government; they won’t get involved in government. They don’t like the public education system; they won’t send their children to education. And ... they also don’t like the health system[/B].” [B]“Those three things are all part of what COVID is,”[/B] he said. Attkisson noted that “after a short shutdown last year, the Amish chose a unique path that led to COVID-19 tearing through at warp speed.” The community gathered for a religious celebration in May 2020, where they all took communion. Lapp then described how the [B]Amish take communion: “They dunk their wine into a cup, and they take turns to drink out of the cup. So you go the whole way down the line and everybody drinks out of that cup, [/B]so if one person has coronavirus, the rest of the church is going to get coronavirus.” While he acknowledged that[B] “everybody got coronavirus,”[/B] Lapp defended the community’s approach: “It’s a worse thing to quit working than dying.
