CH. 1.1 QUESTION
VARIOUS CULTURES AND SOCIETIES EMPHASIZE DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF GOOD CITIZENSHIP.
THE AMISH DO NOT USE AUTOMOBILES, ELECTRICITY, TELEPHONES, INDOOR PLUMBING, MODERN TECHNOLOGY, OR ANYTHING ELSE FROM THE NON-AMISH WORLD. ALL ASPECTS OF THE AMISH CULTURE REVOLVE AROUND THE HOME AND FAMILY LIFE. AMISH FAMILIES ARE SELF-SUFFICIENT. THEY PRODUCE THEIR OWN FOOD, CLOTHING, SOAP, QUILTS, AND FURNITURE.
WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO LIVE IN THE AMISH CULTURE? WHAT WOULD BE THE HARDEST SACRIFICE FOR YOU TO GIVE UP TO LIVE THIS WAY?
