The Amish have grown 84% since 1992, according to the Washington Post (via Gene Veith's Cranach). Watch church growth experts start recommending that their church clients get rid of their buses in favor of Sunday morning buggy rides to church for their elderly members, replacing church bake sales with vegetable stands, and replacing popular abstinence education with lessons on bundling.
On the other hand, maybe not.

You are welcome to post at this blog. You are asked, however, to refrain from the following:
1. Name-calling;
2. Questioning the motives or integrity of people you have never met just because you disagree with them;
3. Using obscenities or other expressions not appropriate or necessary to civilized discussion;
4. Taking disagreement personally;
5. Demeaning or insulting remarks.
The host will attempt to abide by the same rules and only asks that you not provide him with the temptation to do so in return by violating them.
Failure to comply with these rules can result (depending solely on the arbitrary and inscrutable will of the host) in the deletion of offending posts and suspension of posting privileges. Such measures are more likely if you post anonymously.
Bundling? I'm pretty sure the Amish don't make political contributions of any kind.
