Fundamentalist Inbreeding; Defective Amish Multiplying
Whenever I hear racial supremacist threatening to go off and live amongst themselves on "White only" or "Black only" retreats to protect their "racial purity" I am always the first to encourage them.
"Go off into the hills and inbreed yourselves into irrelevancy. Ask the Amish how cool it is to have a certified racially pure grandmother-aunt."
Amish? What is he talking about? I don't get it?
I have never understood how the Amish could live in the back hills of Pennsylvania for so long in these little isolated communities without inbreeding children with more eyes than teeth.
I was beginning to think that if God did have a particular faith he was partial to that must be it.
I would think after coming here in the 1700s if by 2002 you still didn't have a population over 20,000, the Amish in Pennsylvania must have the same variety in their genetic make up as an army of Jango Fetts.
Part of my reason for believing this is that I am completely ignorant of how successful or unsuccessful their missionary programs are. I would have to assume, since they are probably the only religious group that hasn't made their way to my door to save my soul yet, that finding new converts must not be a priority.
In fact, the more reclusive a fundamentalist community is the more crucial it is to seriously consider employing a few pimps to help introduce new stands of genomes. I mean, whether they would like to admit it or not, recruiting new pussy for religious fundamentalist is more important than even they know.
Well, to be fair I should say than they knew. Past tense.
Because evidently the Amish haven't been as successful at breaking the laws of genetics as I had thought. In fact, their children are being born with increasingly more and more cases of rare inherited disorders.
Some are metabolic. Those are the ones that get off easy.
If you find an Amish child that must eat a few more bananas in the morning with their cereal for the potassium so they won't go blind by bible study, they are relatively healthy as a fucking Ox.
Apparently being born with more obvious problems like dwarfism, extra fingers and toes and babies with unnaturally small or large heads ain't shit to them anymore.
The article I read showcased one brother and sister that must sleep under a fluorescent purple-bluish light at night that breaks down the bilirubin in their system just to stay alive. Without sleeping under the light they could suffer brain damage and die.
How fucked up is this? The kids keep flyswatters by their beds because the lights attract insects at night.
What do the Amish have Flintstone windows in their houses or have they discovered glass yet?
There is a disease called Crigler-Najjar syndrome, which is extremely rare - so rare in fact that there are believed to be no more than 200 cases worldwide…that is if you don't count the Amish community.
One doctor in Lancaster, Pennsylvania that treats the Amish in the area has found 38 cases in the Amish children and 23 in he Mennonite children. Which means that roughly one out of four people in the world that have that shit live right there in Mifflinburg, Pennsylvania.
same difference

Ohio OKs Creationism in Science Class
Shouldn't they be teaching "intelligent design" theory in history instead? Wouldn't it fit better right along with the section "when we used to think the world was flat", and "when we used to think the sun revolved around the earth"?
