“EVERYBODY HAS TO DIE.”
Probably has less to do with religion and more with not being able to distinguish between reputable and non reputable sources.
if it’s not from the church it’s not reputable, and they’re trained that way by the church from the moment they’re kids.
I live in a country where nobody goes to church (France) and we have the same crazy persons.
This. This has nothing to do with them reading reputable and non reputable sources. The Mennonites are extremely obedient to whomever their local leaders are, up to and including uprooting and leaving if they decide another location just needs more people. Not using vaccines when a lot of these folks aren’t allowed to use the internet is not that much of a stretch.
Seriously, what exactly do you think “religious faith” is, if not strongly believing in something despite lack of evidence (i.e., exactly the antithesis of the Scientific Method)?
