Or also have you ever been an Amish person and left the belief that they have?
Isn't it the amish that when they turn 16 they are allowed to go out into our world, the devil's playground, to make their own choice of whether to stay with the amish community or leave it?
If so, there just may be one or two amish people on this site. 'Cause personally, if I could choose between, say, go to a nudity bar or play chess on the net... I'd play Internet chess...

Or play chess on a laptop and get a lap dance at the same time?
Yes you are right about the Amish teenagers I think its called rumspringger or rumplestilskin or something.This is a time to sow wild oats and decide to leave or stay Amish.
Good call dude, I didnt consider they may decide to become chess nerds instead of smoking ,drinking,and other things like sex.Yes, I am sure chess on the web is their most forbidden activity,the forbidden fruit ,if you will,or even if you wont...lol .I am certain they all logg in and play chess the minute they leave to explore.😛
