In honor of our Mennonite cousins, a little Mennonite humour.
The Amish are in actuality, a Mennonite sect, having left the Mennonites many years ago. Today, most Mennonites drive automobiles, have electricity and church houses. The traditional Mennonite groups have maintained plain dress, head coverings for the ladies and non-resistance as a way of life and shun more worldly entertainments like radio and television when the neighbors are looking.
