I am sure there are some very well versed vegetarians/vegans who could (no offense) dismantle your whole position quite easily… Really? I can’t eat a lot of the high-protein vegan foods (I’m allergic to most legumes, and in, quick trip to the ER so I don’t die allergic). Is it moral to condemn me to chronic protein deficiency for someone else’s moral stance? > [@Robert163](#): > > Are the ones [Amish] that leave actually shunned to the degree that TV/media makes out or is that just sensational reporting? The Amish do not practice infant baptism. You have to be a full adult to be baptized. Joining the church as an adult is a conscious decision. IF a child leaves BEFORE being baptized into the Amish faith then no, they are not shunned. If they leave AFTER they formally join the church, yes, they are shunned (possibly a few exceptions, but it’s rare as hen’s teeth). --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/when-a-hunter-says-i-eat-what-i-kill/726611)._
