Will the Amish go extinct since they pitted themselves against technology?

Most Amish now own cars. The government doesn't accept paper tax returns. It just seems like Amish will die out or they will have to change their technology doctrine. I give them 100 more years and they will be all but gone

    I certainly hope so. They are a nasty cult.

    Nah, they'll outlive all us with their healthy living and valuable skills. They must have already figured out the inbreeding issue or they wouldn't still be here.

    No. The Amish will go extinct due to inbreeding. Staying away from Facebook and other distracting technology isn't a bad idea but inbreeding will kill their line.

    They didn't pit themselves against reproduction, so no. The next 100 years Western civilization is going to collapse, Amish ain't going anywhere, but the rest of us?.
