Are you saying that the Amish and the OOM don't believe that if you leave you will be doomed for hell? Or did I read that wrong?
If they don't believe that leaving will doom you, then what is the incentive to people to stay?
the sad thing is that because I have left the UPC, I have many friends who still love me and I don't doubt that for a minute, but they are convinced that they will not see me in heaven. I am just as convinced that the opposite is true
