An Amish tractor? Say what?

However some of them can have generators, and cell phones,

How interesting. Cell phones not hooked to a grid. I can assure you that cell phones are indeed "hooked to a grid". You could not ask for more infrastructure to make a cell phone work. From the fiber optic "grid" feeding the cell towers to the MTSO* back at the central office, to the RF links feeding the actual phone in your pocket, It is all one big "grid". Perhaps the bishops don't understand the technology.

* MTSO = Mobile Telephone Switching Office.

My definition of a "Religious" man is one who does all the right things on the surface.

My definition of a "Spiritual" man is one who does all the right things on the inside.

I like how you said that. :)

When I said "not hooked to a grid", I meant there was no physical connection, like a telephone or electric pole would have.

Having said that. Years ago many times when driving Menonites around, I had to stop so they could use someone elses hard wired phone. You can't apply common sense and logic to religeous beliefs, I guess.

Religious beliefs and matters of the heart are areas to which this applies... ask your wife for a rational explanation to things... c'mon, you guys know what I'm talking about!

Lol... was ment to poke fun at faith a bit and wives with off-the wall ideas, guess that wasn't clearly conveyed in my haisty post... and somewhat in reference to your definition of religious and spiritual.

You'll have to excuse me, just got back from the barn... where there's a fridge... with a few empty spots for 'beverages'... today was my day off...
