Why the Amish Are Laughing All the Way to the Bank
Boundaries and Beliefs
In Amish life, there’s a fascinating balance between strict rules and personal interpretation. While the Ordnung lays out a clear ethical code, each Amish individual has some freedom to interpret its meaning. But don’t be fooled into thinking it’s all flexible—serious violations bring serious consequences.
The most severe penalty is “Meidung,” or shunning, which happens when someone breaks a core community rule. Meidung means total exclusion from the Amish community, a social separation that affects every part of daily life. It’s a reminder of the importance placed on community values and commitment, showing that while Amish life allows for personal choice, it also holds members accountable to their shared beliefs.
