The Amish are distinct from other Christian denominations primarily due to their commitment to simple living, plain dress, and reluctance to adopt modern technology. They emphasize community, humility, and a separation from mainstream society, often living in rural settings and practicing agricultural lifestyles. Their religious practices include adult baptism and a strong focus on family and community values, which can differ significantly from more mainstream Christian beliefs and practices. Additionally, the Amish often prioritize oral tradition and community decision-making over formalized church structures.
