Excerpt: Benedictus Deus is a papal bull written by Pius V in 1564 which ratified all decrees and definitions of the Council of Trent .

There is a more minor bull written by Benedict XII in 1336.A hyperlinked version of this chapter is at The Enchiridion, Manual, or Handbook of Dietrich Philips is alternatively titled, “THE HAND BOOK OF THE Christian Doctrine and Religion, compiled (by the grace of God) from the Holy Scriptures for the benefit of all lovers of the Truth” .

The Enchiridion (first Dutch ed. 1564, many Dutch and German reprints) contains the tract Een lieffelycke Vermaninghe (van den ban) first printed in 1558, a most vigorous defense of strict avoidance. A second writing on the subject, Naeghelaten Schrift van Ban ends Mydinghe , first published in Dutch in 1602 attached to his Van die Echt der Christenen , was also reprinted in both Dutch and German.Enchiridion contains five letters and eleven treatises and retains influence with conservative Anabaptist sects, including the Amish and some Mennonite groups, who cite its clarity on matters of church discipline, such as excommunication.References (URLs online) Websites (URLs online) A hyperlinked version of this chapter is at The Rondanini Pietà is a marble sculpture that Michelangelo worked on from the 1550s until the last weeks of his life, in 1564.

Born Amish $11.21 Ruth Irene Garrett, well-known author and lecturer, is teaming up with Upper Midwest studies author Deborah Morse-Kahn to write her third autobiographical book. But what was your life like before? This is the question that Ruth Irene Garrett, nee Miller, has been asked again and again by the thousands of inspired and fascinated guests who have attended her lectures and programs on her life growing up Amish to young womanhood, when she fell in love with an Englischer at the age of 21 and left her Amish community to begin her new life out in the world. In Born Amish we learn about Irene’s early life as a child growing up in the Amish farming community of Kalona, Iowa: school, games and chores; work, crafts and foods; clothing, farming and tumbling about with many brothers and sisters. We learn about the expectations for girls and boys, and then for young women and young men, in Amish families; of social roles and understandings about courtship and marriage; about adult baptism and the often wrenching decisions young Amish men and women must make to go out into the English world into mainstream Christian congregations, or to stay and make a life of faith in the Amish church. Ruth Irene Garrett, the best-selling author of Crossing Over: One Woman’s Escape From Amish Life (HarperSanFransisco, 2001) and My Amish Heritage (Turner Publishing Co., 2003) resides with her husband, photographer Ottie Garrett, Jr., in rural Kentucky. Deborah Morse-Kahn, author of numerous books on Upper Midwest history, and a specialist in ethnic and religious communities, is Director of Regional Research Associates in Minneapolis, Minnesota. |

Communities of Dissent $15.82 Alternative religious groups have had a profound influence on American history-they have challenged the old and opened up new ways of thinking about healing, modes of meaning, religious texts and liturgies, the social and political order, and the relationships between religion and race, class, gender, and region. Virtually always, the dramatic, dynamic history of alternative religions runs parallel to that of dissent in America. Communities of Dissent is an evenhanded and marvelously lively history of New Religious Movements in America. Stephen J. Stein describes the evolution and structure of alternative religious movements from both sides: the critics and the religious dissenters themselves. Providing a fascinating lookat a wide range of New Religious Movements, he investigates obscure groups such as the 19th-century Vermont Pilgrims, who wore bearskins and refused to bathe or cut their hair, alongside better-known alternative believers, including colonial America’s largest outsider faith, the Quakers; 17th- and18th-century Mennonites, Amish, and Shakers; and the Christian Scientists, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Black Muslims, and Scientologists of today.Accessible and comprehensive, Communities of Dissent also covers the milestones in the history of alternative American religions, from the infamous Salem witch trials and mass suicide/murder at Jonestown to the positive ways in which alternative religions have affected racial relations, theempowerment of women, and American culture in general. |

Consumer Boycotts $9.11 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Ethical consumerism is the intentional purchase of products and services that the customer considers to be made ethically. This may mean with minimal harm to or exploitation of humans, animals and/or the natural environment. Ethical consumerism is practiced through ‘positive buying’ in that ethical products are favoured, or ‘moral boycott’, that is negative purchasing and company-based purchasing. The rise in ethical consumerism and green brands that identify themselves as ethical, has led to a rise in ethic-based decisions in the mass market, enabled by increased understanding and information about businesses practices. The term ethical consumerism may refer to the wider movement within marketing, which means that large corporations wish to be seen as working ethically and improving the ethical standards of their industry. Alternative terms are ethical consumption, ethical purchasing, moral purchasing, ethical sourcing, ethical shopping or green consumerism. In “The Global Markets As An Ethical System”, John McMurtry argues that there is no purchasing decision that does not itself imply some moral choice, and that there is no purchasing that is not ultimately moral in nature. This mirrors older arguments, especially by the Anabaptists, e.g. Mennonites, Amish, that one must accept all personal moral and spiritual liability of all harms done at any distance in space or time to anyone by one’s own choices. It is often suggested that Judeo-Christian scriptures further direct followers towards practising good stewardship of the Earth, under an obligation to a God who is believed to have created the planet for us to share with other creatures… It should be noted, however, that a very similar argument can be presented from an entirely secular hum… More: |

Creation and the Environment $5.05 Recent years have seen a shift in the belief that a religious world-view, specifically a Christian one, precludes a commitment to environmentalism. Whether as stewards of God’s creation or champions of environmental justice , church members have increasingly found that a strong pro-ecology stand on environmental issues is an integral component of their faith. But not all Christian denominations are latecomers to the issue of environmentalism. In Creation and the Environment, the first book on this subject supported and produced by the Mennonite church, Calvin Redekop and his coauthors explain the unique environmental position of the Anabaptists.In rural Amish and Mennonite communities, the authors explain, the environment — especially the land — is considered part of the Kingdom that God will establish on Earth. Creation and human history are thus seen as completely interdependent. |

Diamonds and Bars: The Art of the Amish People $74.6 Abstraction and colour. Those are the buzzwords designating the salient charactistics of Amish quilts, which remind anyone looking at them of modern painting, be it Josef Albers, Barnett Newman or Frank Stella. Diamonds and bars – lozenges, squares, elongated rectangles – fiery red, vivid green, smokey blue, purple… With their stringent geometry, broad colour fields and astringent composition, Amish quilts are startlingly close to Concrete art, Hard-Edge painting and Minimalism. However, the modern appearance of these patchwork quilts stemmed from the design intention of an 18th-century Anabaptist Christian denomination that has chosen to live without the benefit of modern technology in relative isolation. Although the Amish quilts in the collection date from the reign of Queen Victoria and the Jugendstil/Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods, they represent the diametric opposite of synchronous European-inspired American art yet prefigure the design principles of Modernism. Europeans began to discove |

God Who Are You? $5.94 In his book, GOD WHO ARE YOU? David Huyard tells the story of the struggle their family encountered in leaving the Amish and everyone they knew, to pursue God’s call upon their lives.At the age of twelve David had a vision of preaching to thousands of black people, that vision became real some thirty years later while he was preaching on the island of Antigua, in the West Indies when he suddenly realized the 5,000 estimated crusade crowd before him was exactly what he saw while working in his father’s cornfield in Lancaster County Pennsylvania.David was ordained to the ministry in 1967, and served as pastor for a congregation in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, it was there that the Lord opened the door to twenty-five years of international radio evangelism.David received his Master of Arts degree in Church ministries and Christian counseling from Eastern Mennonite Seminary in 1987. He has compiled a number of teaching materials; his most extensive work is a 1,000 page commentary on the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. David is an accomplished artist and has crafted numerous musical instruments including more than sixty violins.As you read their story your emotions will be greatly stirred as you realize the power of the spoken Word, and how the Holy Spirit can reach the vilest sinner and transform them into a new creation in Christ. You will identify with your own faith struggles and triumphs to discover who God wants to be in you and how you can be more than a conqueror through Jesus Christ, that rejection will never work if we refuse to accept it, and how God will bring spiritual significant others into our lives to enable us to discover Hiswill for our lives achieving our ultimate potential. |

In Search of Grace: A Journey Across America’s Landscape of Faith $13.99 After years as a Hollywood writer and filmmaker, Kristin Hahn felt a crisis of faith: she had no spiritual group she could call her own. Setting out on a three-year journey, she began an investigation of America’s religious traditions, practices, and beliefs. Crisscrossing the nation, Hahn spent a week cloistered in prayer with convent nuns and a month of Ramadan fasting with Muslims. She went door-to-door with young Mormon missionaries and head-to-head with turbaned Sikh yogis. She sat through marathon meditations with Buddhist masters and spent days in conversation and ceremony with an 0jibwe medicine man. Her explorations exposed her to the rich, ancient culture of the Jews and brought her into the enclaves of Christian Scientists and Amish farmers, as well as the less traditional realms of Scientology, neopagan witchcraft, and the congregations of new-age gurus. And this was only the beginning. Openhearted, humorous, and always thoughtful, In Search of Grace offers nourishment for our spiritual hunger — and a myriad of ways to find a religious home. |

Indigo: In Search of the Color That Seduced the World $16 For almost five millennia, in every culture and every major religion, indigo-a blue pigment obtained from the small green leaf of a parasitic shrub through a complex process that even scientists still regard as mysterious-has been one of the world’s most valued dyes. Indigo is the story of this precious dye and its ancient heritage: its relationship to slavery as the “hidden half” of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, its profound spiritual (African, Islamic, Christian, Amish) and sartorial significance that is little recognized but no less alive today (blue jeans, anyone?). It is an untold story, existing in footnotes and brief mentions in popular and scholarly records, brimming with rich, electrifying tales of those who shaped the course of 20th century colonial history and a world economy, fascinating people long forgotten who here are brought thrillingly alive. But Indigo is also the story of a personal quest: McKinley is the descendant of a clan of Scots who wore indigo tartan as their virile armor; the kin of several generations of Jewish “rag traders”; her maternal grandfather owned a textile factory in Lynn, Massachusetts; and she’s a paternal granddaughter of African slaves-her ancestors were traded along the same Saharan routes as indigo, where a length of blue cotton could purchase human life. McKinley’s journey in search of beauty and her own history began with a Fulbright fellowship to research indigo, and ultimately leads her to a new and satisfying path, to finally “taste life.” |

New York Amish: Life in the Plain Communities of the Empire State $13.6 In a book that highlights the existence and diversity of Amish communities in New York State, Karen M. Johnson-Weiner draws on twenty-five years of observation, participation, interviews, and archival research to emphasize the contribution of the Amish to the state’s rich cultural heritage. While the Amish settlements in Pennsylvania and Ohio are internationally known, the Amish population in New York, the result of internal migration from those more established settlements, is more fragmentary and less visible to all but their nearest non-Amish neighbors. All of the Amish currently living in New York are post-World War II migrants from points to the south and west. Many came seeking cheap land, others as a result of schism in their home communities. The Old Order Amish of New York are relative newcomers who, while representing an old or plain way of life, are bringing change to the state. So that readers can better understand where the Amish come from and their relationship to other Christian groups, New York Amish traces the origins of the Amish in the religious confrontation and political upheaval of the Protestant Reformation and describes contemporary Amish lifestyles and religious practices. Johnson-Weiner welcomes readers into the lives of Amish families in different regions of New York State, including the oldest New York Amish community, the settlement in the Conewango Valley, and the diverse settlements of the Mohawk Valley and the St. Lawrence River Valley. The congregations in these regions range from the most conservative to the most progressive. Johnson-Weiner reveals how the Amish in particular regions of New York realize their core values in different ways; these variations shape not only their adjustment to new environments but also the ways in which townships and counties accommodate-and often benefit from-the presence of these thriving faith communities. |

______ What people think?
Religion & Spirituality Hello:) I'm thirteen, so I'm not exactly an expert on religion. I read "Plain Truth" by Jodi Picoult, and the main characters in this book are the Amish. This is exactly what the Amish people believe? They are Christian Right? Include any other important thing about them too! 
Thanks:) Uh, I do not have to write an article … I was wondering …
Correct! The Amish are Christians and believe firmly that the settlers had lived as a long time and remaining faithful to the old Christian morality. For more, click here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amish
