"Happiness" is hard to quantify. However, the fact that Amish communities have managed to survive and prosper even in America, and the fact that more than 90% of the members remain within the faith (even when given the chance to leave) certainly indicates that the Amish feel good about their life and their faith. To many outsiders, life in an Amish community might seem very gendered and regimented, and such a life might not be everyone's choice; but for most Amish, they would not change a thing: it is what they believe and how they want to live.
