Hey Hoovie, I'm curious and maybe you know
I just finished reading yet another book about the Amish people and something occurred to me that I've never thought of before..............
The ministers are chosen by "lot", correct? And I assume they do not get any higher education for this job. So what about licensing? Are their ministers licensed? If not, when they perform a marriage ceremony, are the people truly legally married? Or do the Amish even care if they are "legal" or not in this situation?
I've studied the Amish for many, many years, but never thought of this before. Maybe you'll know, Hoovie. Or perhaps ILG will have some input. Or anybody else - if you know, just jump on in here. Thanks!
