[QUOTE="GOD Shines Forth!, post: 76298588, member: 416099"] Death waits for no man. Got it. This misses the point, which is the right to self-determination of the Amish approach. Inordinate fear of death—the product of unbelief—does not cripple that community as easily as it does some. I find that an overwhelming positive contrasted with many other groups. From the OP: "It’s a worse thing to quit working than dying," he said, defending the community’s approach to COVID-19. “But to shut down and say that we can’t go to church, we can’t get together with family, we can’t see our old people in the hospital, we got to quit working … it’s going completely against everything that we believe.” This is something a person who lives out of fear of death cannot understand or know. It eludes them. [/QUOTE]
