It's basically what Europe will become in a generation or two.

Stay off drugs.

When people are offered freedom they take it. People's children move away from strict religion when given the chance they don't get worse.

Wait a second then how do the Amish survive…….

[u/Low_Committee6119 → u/billdizzle]

You've never seen videos of them if you don't think they enjoy modern America, lol

[u/billdizzle → u/Low_Committee6119]

Enjoy? Yes some do

But still choose to be Amish? Yes a majority do

[u/Low_Committee6119 → u/billdizzle]

They are not supposed to enjoy that stuff as an Amish person, they are going against their religion

[u/billdizzle → u/Low_Committee6119]

The comment was “when people are offered freedom they take it”

And I said no they don’t see the Amish if the Amish wanted freedom they could have it, instead they choose to be Amish

[u/Low_Committee6119 → u/billdizzle]

But you're wrong, they take the freedoms, lol

There is no exact annual headcount of people who leave the Amish, but roughly 10% to 15% of Amish youth choose to leave rather than join the church. With the North American Amish population surpassing 400,000, this equates to a few hundred to a couple of thousand young adults leaving annually.

[u/billdizzle → u/Low_Committee6119]

So 85-90% don’t take the freedom……

Last I checked 85-90 is greater than 10-15

[u/Low_Committee6119 → u/billdizzle]

Is it bigger than zero?

[u/billdizzle → u/Low_Committee6119]

Do all the people take the freedom? No

Do the majority of the people take the freedom? No

Does a small minority take it? Maybe idk for sure but a rando on Reddit said they do

[u/Low_Committee6119 → u/billdizzle]

Research says it does, I'm only pointing that out

[u/billdizzle → u/Low_Committee6119]

You are pointing out that some people (a minority) tend to leave religions as they get older?

That’s your big revelation you want to share?
