I'm Amish myself and my parents split up after a village feud, so during the week i live on the ranch with my mom, and on the weekends i lead a 'normal' non Amish life at my dads. i told my dad its time we gave up being people were not by following the Amish crowd, so he shaved his beard off. Well anyway its peoples choice how they act and dress but i think growing up Amish you aren't given the chance to find yourself for who you are. In a way I'm glad we moved because i realised that there is a lot more to life.
Everyone has different beliefs. The Amish have different beliefs because they choose to live simply in an effort to keep close to the god they believe in.
Amish is a version of Christianity.
They've just chosen a fairly strict interpretation of it, based on one particular translation of The Bible.
Amish people believe in Jesus Christ so the Amish god is Jesus, too.

No. There are no Amish communities in NJ.
Most Amish don't use technology. They see it as a distraction, and they have other religious views about it. Each Amish community has a sort of "rulebook" called an Ordnung that is different for each community- for example, one community might be allowed to have a telephone for the entire community, and for another it wouldn't be so. Also, a lot (NOT ALL) Amish people don't feel comfortable with associating themselves with non-Amish peoples and/or don't feel a need to explain themselves. Some people were Amish when they were younger, though, and have "converted" to a non-Amish lifestyle, so don't be surprised to see answers from once-Amish people.
Not all Amish people have to be white. This is because some other people can be adopted or converted into the Amish way of life.
