Calling them a rape cult is a little extreme. Although I do agree they are far to evangelized on the internet. For the most part they are just people with an 8th grade education, trying to get by with religion and community/family coming first

If your statements are coming from experiences you’ve had in this culture, I’m very sorry. Their authority-centered and closed culture has sheltered many abusers. This is a serious ongoing problem, and I’m aware of many people who have suffered.

But to be clear: none of the religious practices of the Amish involve rape. The same weaknesses are present in many other similarly organized groups (see the ongoing scandals in the Catholic Church, less reported but similar patterns in southern Baptists, and even the military’s serious issues with sexual abuse).

Singling out the Amish and claiming that something they’re deeply ashamed of is the focal point of their religion is textbook hasty generalization and hyperbole.
