The Amish are happy because they live sheltered lives, sheltered by 'English' society as they call us normies.

They don't have to worry about any of the Big Things in Life like defending the country or creating a stable currency, because it's being done for them.

When was the last time the homeland was invaded? What purpose would the Amish serve in Afghanistan?

Never invaded. Deterrence works.

Agreed. So now do the rest of the civilian population. You have a gripe with them too or just the Amish?

What about the Orthodox Jews or Native Americans?

Yeah orthodox jews are a worry, natives do occasionally serve afaik. The rest of the population do their part afaik but then again I'm not in military circles.

6% of the population has served. That leaves 94% of the population that lives their lives through the protection of others.

That doesn't seem to be a problem for anyone else. Not sure why that would be a bone to pick with the Amish.

True that, but the 94% are not religiously opposed. They found other careers. If need be, the 94% can be conscripted in no time.

So it's not the lack of service, its their religion that bothers you?

It's interesting that conscientious objection is a problem but not cowardice or those that look down on military service.

Just those that have a religious conviction opposed to taking life.
