I'd be curious to know what they'd do if there were wasn't PSP. Just sit back and watch I guess? My wife's distant family is Mennonite (not quite as strict as Amish) and they're all very nice, hardworking people. But a little quirky (aren't we all). But all very much pacifist.

And I thought this was a good documentary too:
